Guest BEAVERTAIL Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 I never had a liking for Ford, but my Ford explorer has been through hell and back. Some friends of mine have some out west that they use and have over 300,000 miles on it... So I think I'll stick with the explorer for awhile.

I drove around in an '87 Caravan (aka the party wagon) for several years. All three years in high school and my first two in college. We'd pile all kinds of people in that thing on the weekends and head out! lol My brother and i were fixing something on it every weekend it seemed. It had all kinds of electrical and cooling system problems. Seems to me it had about 100+ miles when it was sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mountainman74 12 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 My wife has a 92 Toyota Land Cruiser with 260,000 on it. Ive had good luck with Toyota Trucks. Other than the Japanese building superior products, the main problem with the Big 3 is management. If the big 3 would gut their management, and concentrate on quality once again, hire better engineering personel and quit blameing the UAW for everything, and get well designed products out for the Unions to build, they would make a strong comeback. Its not the union's fault. The Unions have already made Huge concessions, and have been applauded for it. They even took over the health care last year. Even at Volvo, they get these new engineers fresh out of college, that no nothing, and have no common sense to boot. We need to change the way we do business, and design products to last.

bluefieldRocks 14 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 My mom drives a '00 Mitsubishi Montero Sport and it's always messing up on here. Last time I talked to her I think she said she's going to try and get a jeep liberty or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhs7695 185 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 (edited) notice its the BIG three..USA baby..not none of this foreign bull Sh*t..TRUCKS, not rice burners...and i'll call you out to your nissan vs my F150 You mean a race? F150 won't catch an '03 Maxima even if it's a V8. I would still drive a GM product if it was built worth a damn. I had an 01 Grand Am GT coupe brand new and I had electrical and steering problems with it from the day I brought it home almost. Not to mention it leaked water into the floor through both doors and there was water soaking into the back seat from the driver side wheel well. It kept blowing tail light bulbs every couple of months too. Dealership had it back several times under warranty and it was still never fixed completely. After two years and 36K miles of that bullstein, I traded it. Simply a logical choice to drive the Nissan for me. Compared to the GT, Maxima has 3.5L 255hp vs. 3.4L 180hp in the GT and I get almost ten gallons better fuel mileage with the Maxima. I have 120K miles on the Maxima and the only things I've replaced on it are tires and a battery outside of normal lubes and filters.

trublue 939 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 the main problem with the Big 3 is management. Wisdom could also be an issue....the CEO's flew into Washington to beg for a bailout and did they fly coach ....nope, they flew into D.C. in their companies' Lear and Gulfstream private jets. Oops, guess, they thought no one would find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainman74 12 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 exactly, We have a serious problem with pay for upper management. No other country even comes close to how grossly overpaid our corperate management is. Our Unions have really gave a lot of ground in the last few years. The 2 tier system starts workers at $12-15 an hour at most Big 3 plants, and they dont go up much higher. I work for Volvo, and when the Sweds had control thigs were smooth, and quality was #1. When they bought Mack, and Mack management took over, the plant flew all to pieces. Quality meant nothing,and now The Sweds are taking back over. I hope its not too late to turn the ship around. Ive seen 1st hand the way these companies are ran. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
