Default considering dodge stratus ES as second car...any experience or advice?

It is a '00 model ( old body style) loaded with features, seems tighter than my A4 and handles well. Just wondering about the reliability though.

Default They didn't fare well with me...

They used to give me those as rentals whenever I was in Mexico. They would only last a week or two with me driving them. I had everything from suspension "problems", to major engine problems. Granted I am probably a fairly aggressive driver, but it would make me nervous to actually pay money for one.
When I go back now, they have learned to only give me a Jetta to drive. They are the only ones that wouldn't leave me stranded in the jungle.
