Bob and sixtynine:
Thanks for the input, I'd really like to see her in a Chevy, as I too was from a Chevy house, but I'm letting her decide.. I started buying 80's Fords about 7-8 years ago for farm trucks, and I still hear about it.. But, they work for me.
I know all have goods and bads.. That's a given no matter what name is on it. I think I'm the only one in the family that has Ford, the rest are either Chrysler or GM, and all have served the family pretty well. I've had good luck with all my Chevy's.. But, we've had problems with them too.. We lost a oil pump shaft in a 90 p/u with 80k on it.. Dad had a 96 or 97 half ton that lost the crankshaft dampner at 10k or so, my 01 S-10 had starter issues (2.2 L) but that wasn't all them either. Wheel bearings are weak on the newer stuff.. did them on my 05 around 55k.
I hear Fords have the spark plug removal issues.. Chrysler seems to have some electrical stuff going on from what I have heard..
I have nothing against any of the 3, and I understand with used comes the assumption it will need work eventually. I guess the whole thing is to have something economical to keep going..
