 This is my second Ford in 6.5 years. I 
have spent several thousands of dollars 
for repairs that are a direct result of 
poor engineering on the part of Ford  
the first was a 95 mustang convertable 
v-6. I had to replace the head gaskets 
3 times before I bought this explorer 
now I have had tons of recalls,bad ball 
joints and the transmission is 
slipping.All together I have spent 
50000.00$ plus all the repairs and the 
89 nissan I traded for the first Ford 
is still on the road. I guess everyone 
knows what my next car will be. Not a 
ford.
