†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!

†****Matt Newman wrote: If you do ever buy an American car do not buy a Ford, Mercury, Lincoln, or one of there other brands. Agreed! But if you're going to buy an American truck buy a Ford F series. My 98 F150 XLT is awesome!! Best vehicle I've ever owned and I've owned Dodge, GM and Japenese stuff. ****Matt Newman wrote: Buy a GM product Eeeewwwwww! Other than a new Monte Carlo they are pretty much crap!

Way too much $$$$ ****Matt Newman wrote: They need some new engines to compete with the Duramax and Dodges to be released Cummins engine (they can't fit it into a pickup yet it is so big) Once again, I like my vehicles to be a bit more mainstream.

†****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.
