I did find it interesting on the site, the mention of the CV being the car of choice after 1998. Considering GM had gotten out, I think they became the most popular be default. Michigan's annual vehicle tests should be interesting next year, especially if Carbon Motors enters the arena.

I had the pleasure of riding in one of our 500s yesterday. It has 80K miles on it, and the agent assigned to it is retiring this summer (he's past mandatory, and he didn't want to accept a new car) . The car hasn't been abused or used for regular LE work. He had it floored on the way up the freeway ramp and we were literally at 40mph. Apparently, the warning light for the "drivetrain", including AWD, has been coming on and off for awhile, and I'm not sure if it was in a "limp home" mode or what.
I know they lost the CVT and changed the engine line-up, but I can't see these cars lasting like the CV's do.
