Fellow Fordians

I've been a proud Ford owner for the past 10 years. After a terrible experience with GM products 15 years ago, I bought 7 fleet Vans and and 3 trucks. We went through 21 transmissions in 5 years and numerous other engine and mechanical problems. All were with normal driving and light loads. HVAC service vans.

After that I bought Fords and and have had only one van 6cyl E-250 that kept loosing the graphite composite pistons. Engine was rebuilt twice.

Other Than that my Fords have been reliable and hope they continue to manufacture a quality product and don't follow the same Third world/Republican mindset as GM with their cheap and dangerous rattletraps.


Go Ford
