Not a good comparison to make, even less now with Hong Kong protesting. A hope mods give you a warning for being an ass when talking about a stupid car.

Yeah. And the Implication.

Ikr, my bad >.<I dunno why you wold
LOL at how many posts you wrote loling at OP when you were wrong the whole time
I like to buy from brands with proven long term reliability, that's why.
Reliability
Winner: Hyundai
Hyundai vehicles are more reliable than Honda's, with every vehicle from the Korean automaker earning at least a 3.5 out of five predicted reliability rating from U.S. News. In contrast, Honda has three autos, the 2018 Civic, 2018 HR-V, and 2018 CR-V, that have received a 3.0 out of five rating. Both automakers have two vehicles (2018 Honda Accord and Accord Hybrid, and 2018 Hyundai Elantra and Tucson) that have achieved a 4.0 out of five predicted reliability rating.
Most Honda vehicles come with a three-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty. These numbers are average for the industry. The Honda Accord Hybrid is backed by an additional eight-year/100,000-mile or 10-year/150,000-mile warranty for hybrid components, depending on state regulations. Honda Clarity fuel cell components come with an eight-year/100,000-mile warranty.
Hyundai guarantees their vehicles longer, offering a five-year/60,000-mile basic warranty and a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty across the board. The 2018 Ioniq also comes with a lifetime warranty for its battery.
Well there's some interesting news for you, based on long term testing, data and stats. The landscape for reliability has shifted seismically over the last couple of decades - in part due to the hypercomplexity of modern cars and variability in where and how they're manufactured, but also through sheer competition.
By long term I meant like 10-15+ years of making good cars. They may be good cars now, but models 10-15 years ago werent, where as a 15 year old honda is a good car.
Just because they have a better warranty also doesnt mean theyre more reliable.
Yes but their long term reliability numbers have been improving consistently for a couple of decades and these numbers reflect that - and warranties can reflect confidence in the underlying product but are practically useful for owners. Given the huge difference in materials, engineering and technology today vs 20 years ago you're really talking about legacy reputation rather than current, meaningful data - which is what I presented. There are other ratings from other methodologies showing almost identical trends. The point isn't that Honda or Toyota have fallen but that their competitors have improved.
The EcoSport is Ford realizing they need some sort of fleet average MPG buffer since the hybrid escape and F-150 aren't ready yet, so they brought a legit small SUV made for driving on the worst dirt roads ever to the US. Interesting, but a very uncommon niche other than something to label a small crossover in the USA.My personal hatred is directed at the EcoSport. Ford killed the Fiesta and Focus (and their ST/RS varieties) and puts out what is basically a taller shittier fiesta - https://jalopnik.com/the-2018-ford-ecosport-titanium-is-a-good-reminder-that-1829502953
Add to that, the Mustang is better looking, performing, lighter, faster, more nimble and has more features... Both in tech and performance tracking.
The issues with the Focus's transmission piss me off so much. The cars are just so much fun to drive.
I had a 13 Titanium and loved driving it, but I couldn't trust it due to the transmission.
My fiancee has a 17 Focus and it's just as fun.
I have a 14 Fiesta and the transmission died. Got it replaced under warranty with the improved one and it's an absolute blast. Lovely chassis for a shitbox
Seems like some people in this thread don't know that different trim levels exist with different engine options. Op rented a mid size sedan and wanted to go fast? Should have asked them for the srt8 300 then. And no, your stock Civic isn't faster than a camaro. Not even the 4cyl camaro :|
