Yeah, I'm he ford buying idiot and you can call me VERY disgruntled with
Ford. My 91 3.8, the AC died, the mirrors froze, the HGs went, and the rear
brakes went bad. Well, decided to give Ford another chance. Got a 93
T-Bird LX 5.0. he tie rods needed replace, been through 3 sets of freeze
plugs, 2 batteries, ball joints, the tranny needed rebuilt at 40k miles and
it just had it's second alternator rebuilt. the doors feel like they are
both about to fall off, the interior is basically falling apart at the seems
(screws actually just fly out, moonroof occasionally freezes up, engine
pings on startup, even on 93 after I replaced the plugs, wires, ad the
injectors clean, and on 93 octane gas. Finally I was dumb enough to buy a
3rd Ford, 93 SHO, had a check engine light before I even got it home and was
overheating. took it back the day I got it. not to mention the Ford
dealerships treated me like a freaking dog and charged insane amounts for
everything!!!!! I will NEVER own another Ford again. Their quality is just
too far below par.
