    A desperate move after Toyota brought back (well kind of) the FJ

    The new Bronco is seriously ugly IMO

    Its all good man! I was at a car show about a month back and FORD was the only car manufacturer there that impressed me, not even Toyota impressed me.

    My dad is a ford guy and I dont know why!
    my moms Thunderbird died at 105000 miles
    his 87 bronco with the 302 died at 87000 miles
    my moms 97 explorer tranny went out at 90000 miles
    now my dad has a 03 f150, the engine and tranny work great but the doors and windows are possessed and lock and unlock and the windows go down sometimes.

    And it's not to a lack of maintenance, my dad is an ase mechanic and has been for 35 years.

    needless to say my mom is through with fords and now owns a Lexus (made by Toyota)

    Found On Road Dead.

    At least at ,90k miles with a Toyota all you will have to do is drop in a new battery. Look at the tundra even a 1st gen tundra.

    Toyota's are nice and all, except when the frame is rusted out and you get in an accident and the frame rail snaps off and impales you.


    Just sayin.
