Although I don't own one, any test drives I've taken have always taken me to friends or family's places, and a few stops along the way, and I have gotten every favorable comment I can think of.
Some of the times I just plain out ask what the person thinks of the car and that ends up with a look-see through the car for them. I could sell Calibers faster than they can sell themselves, which is quite fast.
My daughter LOVES the car and she is a single mother with a 3 year old boy and a 5 year old girl. I thought getting in and out of the back seat would be hard for her since she has long legs, but she thought it was fine. Same thing for the car seats. And we both love my Aerio for the rear seat ingress/egress.
I saw a white one coming out from a parking lot, so I waved him in and he must have been in his seventies, so even though the car is marketed for 25 -35, people like him and me (51) can see the overall practicality of the car.
It really is many cars in one!
Not one person has said anything negative once they've sat in it.
Anyway, I'm using too much bandwidth here (commonly called "hot air"), so I'll head out.
In ending, Dodge's new products are much better than the older ones, and t shows in Dodge's sales. Going up while GM and Ford are going down. And Dodge is going up in reliability and in problems per car delivered.
Two years ago I wouldn't have bought a Dodge. Now, since the Magnum / Charger / 300 has done so well in sales and relibility reports, I'm all over the Caliber!
