Caliber: Compass' Slightly More Attractive Sister
The Caliber shares it's platform with the Jeep Compass below, and is the main reason why the Jeep's definition of going off road is occasionally jumping a curb. However, the Caliber is a bit better looking, in a kind of shunken Magnum kind of way. However when you get to the rear, you notice it has an ass like Hank Hill. Basically the car seems to taper off to nothing, with huge taillights, that together look to be almost the width of the hatch. Not only does it make it look too narrow and top-heavy, it looks like it wouldn't handle good or hold much stuff. And it makes it look fugly. From the rear anyway.
BTW - the photos on the Dodge website naturally don't particularly show it's ugliness (why would they after all). To truely see the shrunken ass effect, look at one in person.
