I see Fords are mentions frequently. I have one, (besides my Honda).

A Mustang G.T. conv.

It had a lot of problems, (under warranty), although, they only repaired one of four.

A wrong front spring, (replaced).
Whine in the transmission at road idle, (not repaired)
Two places in the top where there are wrinkles, ( would not repair/replace)
Very slow to return to idle when releasing the foot feet, (wife will not drive) - would not repair.

As far as another Ford - If someone gave me or I won one - I would get rid of it immediately!

Believe it or not.

Wow, i totally disagree with a lot of you people. IMO Ford is the best. If you look at statistics there is more Ford trucks on the road that were built 10-15 years ago, then any other company's truck. Plus they make the best truck, The F-350 Superduty Dually Truck. My dad has one, never has had a problem. Also you have to remember that stands for First On Race Day. Lets also look at another great thing. Thier sports cars give you the MOST bang for your buck. A 29 G Mustang 2004 Mach 1 beats a 31 G 2004 Pontiac GTO. A 37 G SVT Cobra beats a 41 G Chevy Corvette. A 150 G Ford GT POWNZ a 188 G Porsche and a 300 G Ferrari. Thats what matters. Also GM is gonna lay off 1 out of every 6 of their employees. Ford Just recently expanded production at a enigine plant very close to where i live ( Which =s JOBS). Also while i was in europe, i saw about 4 GM vehicles; A lot more Fords, about 67. Now for what i do agree with; Yugos do suck, 100%. Two words that can NEVER be used in a sentence together; Yugo and Fast. But i have dreamed of buying a Yugo and stretching the engine compartment and dropping in a bigger engine and a turbo; and have it put out about 350 Horses; But then i woke up!

P.S. If you dont believe me about the Ford GT beating the Ferrari, look around on Car and Driver.com, you should be able to find it thier, and in their opinions it was there favorite vehicle of the three for overall comfort, acceleration and other things.

ford has had endless problems with that AWFUL GT...wheels falling off at high speed? that is one place where they do beat the ferrari...number of parts falling off.

ford trucks sell heavily because theyre cheap compared to the other brands. performance wise, the new ford trucks are no match for the GMs or the Dodges in regular truck things like pulling due to the fact that the new fords are VERY heavy, and they didnt produce the lightning, so obviously performance isnt even a concern of the severely overweight F150

i would like you to show me stock for stock where a mach 1 will beat the GTO, and where the cobra beats the vette..and which vette?

I have a 2000 Blazer which always have something out of order. It only has 60.000 km, and almost every day it gives me a unpleasant surprise. One day are the brake lights, the next day the air conditioner, then follows the oxygen sensors (veeeery expensive), later is the turning light handle, in summary very expensive, recurrent maintenance. After owning my Accord those annoyances are becoming heavier and heavier. In fact it is on sale now.

Regarding Ford I have never own one of them. I remember my father used to have a 1976 Ford Fairlane which was very dependable (as far as I can recall). For what I have seen today, Ford cars seem to have troublesome transmisions and overall as they become older they look much older than other contemporary American cars. I never have own a Ford car, and I think I will never do.

I had a 5 spd 97 VW Jetta. The front engine mount broke twice. Could be when I spin out a couple times. It wasn't designed to take much torque I guess. Parts are expensive too. 700 bucks to fix sunroof, when it stopped working. Didn't bother to fix it though. Water pump broke and so did the dip stick handle! There was a plastic flange that slowly leaked out all my coolent, replace that myself, easy. I kept adding water though, which caused rust. This thing call exchaust recycling manifold, I think, broke too. Cause the engine to have low idle, or sometimes even stops the car. Had to reve engine for it to work. My battery dried out once, I needed to replace a safety switch of some sort, and then the battery. It's still running though.

This conversation should end. It consists of 3 pages of people bashing Ford's and like 2 people defending them. SHUT UP, Ford sucks. But I agree that Honda dependability = awesome. Honda performance = need some work.
