donmuang37 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 My wife owned a Ford Fiesta and since January, a new Focus. We both love both cars. Her brother bought her 2010 Fiesta and he loves it, too. Had occasional minor chattering from dual clutch tranny, which was fixed with a free firmware update. I drive a 2014 Ranger 3.2L diesel Wildtrak 4x4. We both love that, too. Drove it from Bangkok to Kuala Lumpur and back in April. No problems; purred like a kitten. Watch any TV show about Alaska, and you'll notice most of the trucks are Fords. I wonder if the Aussie is an impartial reporter? Hmm...wonder who is "sponsors" are?

bazza73 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I've owned three Fords. I'd have to say all three were underwhelming for various reasons. Admittedly that was 20 years ago; however, I don't see any need to repeat the experience. Ford engineers seem to be dedicated to cost-cutting, and it showed. Crap design as far as rustproofing goes, they've always had issues. Ford's worst experience must have been an Australian Grand Prix ( can't remember the year ) when the two race cars burst into flames within thirty seconds of stopping after the warmup lap. I still wonder how many Ford managers had heart attacks that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a fact When a vehicle can rack up 300,000 to 400,000 km, then it starts to be impressive. 160,000 km? A Daihatsu Charade can do that. IMHO the Nissan Sunny seems to be extremely durable, there are still examples in car yards with 400,000 on the odometer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
