 The sky is falling. The Grand Prix is a fine car. The 3800 is a very reliable engine. If aggressive service is performed the car will go 150k w/o issue.

Why is the Ranger in there when it's one of the highest selling vehicles? At least I thought it was.
interesting that the Dodge Sprinter is really a Mercedes that DCX rebranded as Dodge and Freightliner. it's actualy been a huge success here in the Northeast with delivery companies, contractors, and other small businesses.
not surprised to see minivans as the worst values. they get so abused on a daily basis that they aren't worth sh!t on a trade-in.
i also notice a lot of rental cars on that list.

Wait.. its because consumer reports are bogus [censored] propaganda.
Guarenteed they would never make an "Import Worst Cars of 2006" Cause there is no such thing as a bad import, they are amazing in every way and american cars are crap that no one buys

When I clicked on the link, it was to an article from Forbes Magazine - not Consumer Reports. What makes you think CR had anything to do with the topic for that article?
And for those who missed it, the Ranger made the cut because it apparently had the lowest owner-satisfaction rating of any vehicle.

The only thing on that list slightly suprising to me is the Ram, which IMO, is better than some of the other full size trucks.
I think the sprinter is cool, but I could see that most people that aren't business who own one, probably wouldn't like it.
