Here's the Dodge (statistically speaking), and bear in mind that even a vehicle with a score of zero will still have many trouble-free examples:

Yep, I dodged the transmission horrors by one model year here. Again as I said it's not going to be as reliable as a toyota, but i would have to put a lot of money into it to make up the difference I would have had to pay for equivalent year and condition.

As for "paying 10,000 more" I paid 3500 for the ody, and around here 07 town and countries go for 2500-5k, so very comparable, and always with rust.
