Our Nissan Rogue is a fantastic car for our small family. The back seat is roomy enough to fit the kids with their booster seats without fighting over whose arm goes where. It has a USB slot for charging your phone/iPod, which also connects your device to your stereo for hands free calling. The built in navigation system may leave a little to be desired (I lived in a rural area and it said my street didn't exist), but for the most part it will get you where you need to go. Decent gas mileage. We recently drove half way across the country with it, and needed relatively few stops.

I chose to review my 2002 Honda Accord because of the high quality of the vehicle. I was skeptical when I originally purchased the car in September of 2002 solely based on the fact that I had only owned American made vehicles before that time. My venture into the foreign made side has left a long-term impact on my family and me. I will say that the LX version, in my opinion, is one of the best value sedans on the market. The fuel economy is outstanding even in stop-and-go city traffic. I routinely average around 35+ miles to the gallon. While one may opt to go for a higher end model of this car, I am extremely satisfied with the build quality of the LX. I will say that as I approach the 300,000 mile mark, I rarely ever hear a squeak, rattle, or even a whimper. Also, to my knowledge, there has only been one major recall in the 13 year history of this car and that was due to a faulty air bag. This recall was handled as professionally as anyone could ever possibly hope for by the company. All of that, along with the stylish exterior, the quality of sewing of the cloth seat interior, and the reliability of the engine, leave me with a feeling of confidence that I will be able to pass this vehicle down to one of my children in the near future. If by chance my children do not want the car, I aim to convert it to a work vehicle, since I am able to carry lumber up to 8 feet in length with ease through the small pop-down door that leads from the back seat into the trunk!
