    15 custom bent valves, and one shreaded timming belt...-



    lol:lol



    Is everyone forgetting that the probe did have Mazda engines in them. That should count for something. Its body stylings are not to appealing.

    Dont get the probe... You'll have problems down the road.

    it's better to get an 90-92 GT. Those are more predictable.. but still you either get a good one or lemmoned out one.

    I myself is looking for a 1gen GT but it's goin to be a track car. If not, I'll get a 1 gen Eclipse GSX.
    sorry guys v8's rule

    well im not gunna rag on ya, every car has its prone failures, just take good care of it and it will last, no matter what it is.

    Personally i wouldn't touch ford, but im not gunna outright say theyre junk because of my limited experience. I had an 85ranger xl and i couldn't kill it. so whatever man, do whatever you want

    Hey now...Fords aren't all that bad. It's like anything else, you either get a good one or a bad one. If you find one that's been well taken care of and you continue to take care of it and don't abuse it, more than likely you won't have any problems with it. My '94 Ranger I used to have was a wonderful truck, 52k semi-hard miles in the 2 years I had it and it never once missed a beat, and would have reached 200k easily (was at 124k when I sold it feb '01). Also some older people I know (not real old...about 60) have both driven only Fords their entire lives and have never had a problem with them, and the one used both his old '91 and his new '02 Rangers in his construction business. These same people also had a '91 Probe GT V6 that they bought brand new and they racked up 160k something miles in 7 years, and never had a problem with it. Traded that for a new 98 Taurus, which they put 115k on when they traded that about 6 months ago for a new Windstar. Never had a problem with that one either.

    Now if you want to talk Chryslers that's a whole other story, heheh. I'd take a Ford, or maybe even break down and buy a GM (*shivers*) before I'd buy a Chrysler product. :lol
