                  Heh, my car, my sister's truck, my dad's SUV, and my mom's truck are all Ford products. I've had a few problems with my car but its also over 150,000 miles and my sister had a few problems but most of that stems from the accident the vehicle was in last winter. James Simplicity Rules!

                      Any vehicle if driven improperly results in painful death. That being said, we don't own an Explorer we own an Escape :) James Simplicity Rules!

A brother in law of mine has a big deisel GMC with their super transmission for towing. While towing a big trailer a sensor failed and hosed the entire transmission. OK, $hit happens, I'm not blaming GMC, but the bigger problem is this happened in rural Wisconsin and the local dealership has never even see this transmission, let alone replaced one. ****Matt Newman wrote: Corvette Z06 See my first point about the $$$

                                        ****Matt Newman wrote: Hmmm. Usually they just replace the sensor. Ummm.... no. The sensor failed and caused the computer to make some really bad decisions on shift points and gears and toasted the transmission. The point wasn't so much that it failed or the damage done due to the failure, that can happen to any manaufacturer. The problem was that the high end stuff is sometimes so high end that it's difficult to get serviced when required.
