I am trying with a 2013 Ford Explorer. Now with 55k on it the amount of work done to this car is amazing - full brakes twice, rear hub bearings...... It's gonna go soon once Ford finally gets it right at the service bay. Probably hencho en mexico but i have not verified that. First & last Ford for me.
Dodge makes zero cars that interest me enough to overlook their high corporate NHV standards.
Meanwhile my 175,000 2005 Pilot keeps moving right along.
Huh. Not sure where to turn.

My 2004 Cavalier with 193K miles has a new exhaust and is quiet as a mouse. Not to say I didn't drive it with a patched up ghetto exhaust. And either way it never let me down. My rarer then free money 1991 Spirit R/T gets driven hard to chit hole North Jersey 5 days a week and beat around on weekends, and it's a great car. A little quirky but I know my way around it enough to keep it going. So? You do what you have to do and I'll do what I have to do. And I don't do Imports. And that makes me feel good. My next car is going to be a Caddy of some sort because I want a rolling Lazy Boy ride.
