Man I hate them !!!
I've been reading some for the Contour. They always seem to be by people who buy a used Contour, don't check it out first, make no maintenance and then [censored] that it's Fords fault !!!
I read one about 2 weeks ago about this guy who drove his for about 2 weeks with the CEL on. THen the engine seized and he had to dump it !! Of course that's all put down to Ford's build quality, nothing to do with the fact that some stupid dumb a$$ doesn't recognize a warning light when he sees one !!
Also noticed that most Pontiac reviews are buy people who say good things like 'always change the oil regularly', 'regularly maintained it', 'had a problem but got it fixed right away' (not driving 2 weeks with it).
The import cars seem to revolve around all the problems they have, but that's okay because the cars great.... 'owned the car 3 months, had to replace the clutch and flywheel. No worries she drives way better now and I'm happy.' That sort of thing.
From people I know too, they always [censored] about their Fords. I had one buddy who complained constantly that his brakes weren't working properly on his Taurus. Took his car for a spin and told him to get his pads replaced and check the rest of the braking system out. He didn't and ended up driving off the road as his' brakes failed. All he did was [censored] about Ford's being crap !!
In my experience, first hand, second hand, and third hand, it takes a 'special' kind of person to buy a Ford car. There really don't seem to be many of us who own one and actually know how to take care of our cars !!
Well....rant over now, what are your views ??
Thanks,
Rabbit.
P.S. Did you know that people really chose NOT to buy a ZX2 PURELY because of the small cup holders !!! Is that any kind of reason !!!
