In essence, i think the Matrix is tied for 1st, because the Vibe copied the Matrix platform.
Just like Geo copied the Corolla with one of their cars, I forgot what they named it.
But since the Vibe and Matrix are pretty much the same car, bascially Toyota takes all the tops spots for the wagons, because the Scion is Toyota as well.
And looking through all of the catagories, Toyota took 7 or 8 of the top spots out of 12 spots (i didn't count) But the Subara Baja??? WTH? that's not really even a truck, how can that beat a Tacoma AND and Tundra. Just my 2 cents.

i agree, the vibe only had good ratings because of the corolla platform...

from what i have read from other forums,, they bought the vibe bec of its looks...

That GEO was called a Prizm. I had a '95, it ran good and was reliable, but had a continuous valve cover leak. I had it from '97 to '03, traded it in for a passport, holy crap, what a mistake. Got a '05 matirx 10 days ago, much better decision.
