yeah they only made 110,000 F-bodies that year...and all of them brokedown... sure glad it didn't have anything to do with CAW and that union contract. My point was it has nothing to do with the 'brand' or 'maker'... every car is different. Some are perfect and some fall apart. You can hardly claim all of them are faulty when there is nothing to back it up. Avoiding ALL fords because of problems had with 1 or 2 cars is ignorance IMHO.

My 01 has been completely trouble free and has 110K on all the original parts (minus a slave cylinder which I just changed about 3K ago). Pulling the clutch next week to replace it for track duty in Oct. Daily driven rain, snow or shine, but thanks... I forgot how unrealiable and crappy the 4th gens were until you filled me in...

I didn't state Mustangs were *junk*, so please don't put words in my mouth. I stated if at all possible, I would never own one, and stated why.

Sorry.. just paraphrasing...you certainly didn't say anything good.
