yeah they seem to have problems getting the newer german cars to even run new

 

nothing speaks of reliablity like how Canadians are able to continually create useless posts.

 

Your post isnt about reliability. You should talk.

 

of course my post is about reliability! Didnt you read the word "reliability" in my post?

 

Haha. If we are talking "foreign" cars, I shall choose volvo from my own experience. "My" 940Turbo has lasted since 1992. 12 years old, it has gone from California to Maryland once, from Maryland to Kentucky 3 times, from Maryland to Florida 4 times. It currently has about 260000 miles on it. Tranny has been replaced once, NO oil leaks(well, very minimal). The next thing to go will be the turbo, which is gonna be a bitch. But hopefully I will be able to put it in myself. Who knows?



That is what I call reliability folks. And it is one hell of a comfortable ride. And our chevy blazer which was about 19 years old before it got shut down was a GREAT truck. That also went everywhere in america.



Anyone can beat that experience I would like to hear it.

 

The word reliability doesnt exist within my vocab. Everyhting i drive i beat on and it all breaks and it all breaks all the time. If you can find a car that i can drive and cant break i'll give you a cookie.

 

My Chevette had 18 000 KILOMETERS on it when the block exploded 5 minutes from where i bought it.





Chevy Tough, The heartbeat of america. Only chevy i ever owned.

 

Ok, I will provide the vehicle for that challenge.



Where I work at, the trucks we use(ford,blech!) are beaten up every day. They travel many many miles. Oil will not be changed for 20,000+ miles. The air filter is so clogged, you would suffocate in it. And the oil filter, lets not even go there, you can start your own ******* oil company with that thing.



So you think you can beat the **** out of a vehicle. You drive our company trucks and see what you can do to it. Oh, and parts constantly fall off, bumpers and ****, flat tires everyday, and those bastards still last.



Have you had an experience of bad karma?



Haha. Oh, I may sound like an *******, sorry, the way I am.

 

ford=win

 

I concur. I owned a merkur xr4ti (ford 2.3L turbo) The thing let go...a week after I fixed the overboosting problem. It would see 20PSI on a regular basis.



It had...over...400 000kilometers on it. This is a TURBO engine.
