Today on Yahoo!'s main page, they have a story for cars to avoid. The cover shot was of a Honda Crosstour.
Here's the article:

But I just checked it, and it seems they changed up the picture to the second car on their list instead of the first one:

Is it just me, or does there seem to be some bias at the Yahoo! headquarters. Having a picture of a Honda next to the word "Avoid" isn't acceptable, but having a Dodge in front of it is?
It's an evil conspiracy. They'll identify the Crosstour as a car to avoid, but they'll be damned if they run its picture everywhere.
You're thinking too hard.
Yahoo typically cycles and changes the pictures several times a day.
I just checked Yahoo and right now it's a Crosstour picture. :huh:
Yeah, this isn't news.
The Caliber should be avoided at all costs.

At around ~$9000, it seems to be a good deal.

Mine's still a Caliper.
Crosstour is back up. Dueling administrators?
I think we're looking at different pages. The screenshot above looks nothing like where I (and presumably the rest of us) see a Crosstour.

If you're using old Yahoo!, a) how, and 2) that would make sense. I hate new Yahoo!

Of Yahoo!
Okay, yeah, I see the Caliber there.
I still don't think it's a conspiracy theory favoring Honda.

It's a new car.
With the build quality and design integrity of a Pinto...that was dropped from 30 feet up...

The Caliber isn't that bad.
Compared to everything else, it is.
