inputs on how to design RDLC

I have to make an rdlc that displays information similar to below.

CARTRUCKVAN
FORDFORDFORD
TARUSF150Van Model
FOCUSPontiac
LEXUSvan model
van model
BoatTractorMotorbike
John Deere
X-12

Basically, I need columns of Vehicle types, and in each column is a list of vehicles, sorted my make, then model.

I can't seem to find a clean way to present this data. I can't have a column broken, so if it will break off the end of the page, I need to *not* do that. I also need the information to "line up". Cars, trucks, vans, boats, whatever, all need to start at the same row, and if a column needs whitespace to end at the same spot, so be it. The groups can continue on another row on the page, as long as the all line up at the start and end.

I've managed to get a decent solution grouping by model, then make, then type, but I have no way to make the Model group make blank rows to match an adjacent group (Note the whitespace in ford.) I also can't seem to find a way to guarantee the next group to start at the same point as the former (again, whitespace issue). I want blank rows in my report. If Ford has 18 models, and lexus has 4, so be it, lexus has 14 blank rows in it. I just can't seem to find a clear way to this using a table or a matrix. All of this information is in one data set like so:

Ford Car Tarus

Ford Car Focus

Lexus Truck lTruck

...etc, so matrixs aren't playing right, either. 


Any input is helpful.
