Excuse me? You presented misinformation about head gasket failures while
being ignorant to the fact that the Fit was around for quite a while before
arriving in North America. Don't go saying that I lost credibility when you
are the one who doesn't know the facts.

You lost all credibility anyway when you recommended the Aveo over the Fit.

For the most part, what you have presented are not facts. Those are
reviews, also known as opinions. The complaints about gas mileage are
likely the result of the cars not being broken in yet, questionable driving
habits, or a combination of both. After the break-in period and with good
driving habits, Fit should get gas mileage that will easily blow away the
Aveo's mileage.

As for the reliability, that's just a few out of many. I don't understand
why the Fit would have tranny issues when it has been around for 5 years
elsewhere with a good reliability record. But I would expect Honda to
remedy these alleged problems if they become more wide, which is a lot
more than one can say for Chevy or any other domestic brand. Like I said
before, you have been lucky with your Aveo so far. Over the long term (5+
years and higher miles), the Fit should prove to be more reliable.
