Now it’s time for something a little different: Forbes has named its picks for the worst cars of 2005. In the “Least Safe” category are the Ford Ranger, Mazda B-Series, Mitsubishi Lancer and Nissan Sentra. “Least Reliable” is the Infiniti QX (“300% less reliable than the average car”), and “Worst Residual Value” goes the Chrysler Sebring Sedan, Ford Freestar, Kia Optima, Jaguar X-Type and Mercury Monterey. Meanwhile, 001 has his own picks for the worst cars of the year — a list that includes the Buick Lucerne, Hummer H3, and Jeep Commander.
