The finalists for the 2011 North American Car and Truck of the Year were announced today and there was but one shocker: The Honda Odyssey, thought by Editor-at-Large Karl Brauer to be a shoo-in, has been displaced by the 2011 Dodge Durango. The Durango, of course, is the little sister to another Truck of the Year finalist, the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The lone non-Chrysler finalist is the new Ford Explorer. 

As for cars, well, that one was easy: 2011 Chevy Volt, 2011 Nissan Leaf and the 2011 Hyundai Sonata.   

So, then, ignore the 49 professionals on the voting list and let us know what you think should win from the winners– and why. (Or why none of them are good and your favorite car should take the nod.)
