Don't know what surey/vote it comes from, I'm kinda surprise with those result since some of them are not the best selling model at all.

Chevy Volt first place for compacts? That's a joke... right? They sold what? all of 100 of them so far?

It's an...interesting list. At least the 2IS finally beat the 3 series in a survey

I am too. I'm guessing it's based on a high percent of owner reporting that they like their vehicle, not on how much the vehicle sold.

I mean..if you sell 5 Volts, and 1 person comes up and says he really likes it, but you sell 100 Camrys, and 10 people report they really like their car, of course the Volt has a higher percent, but the survey size is much too small to draw a good conclusion. Probably a poorly done survey.

The Chevy Avalanche is even on the list? I don't hardly see any of those anymore. I see many more F250/350's and even more Chevy 1500's than the Avalanche.

What is the brand in between Chevrolet and Mazda? I don't recognize that brand. Is it saying "Ram"?

Yup. Ram is no longer a Dodge and is now its own brand.

CNN should just stick to world news and politics.
