Answer 2

Actually, most Fords last a lot longer than Chryslers and/or GMCs, which is on of the reasons I like them so much. Also, If it's available, you can get motor mounts to add a 460!

Answer 3

which car?  

they will last if you take care of them, although most of them have some trans issues after a while if you are getting an automatic.

for under 100K, probably worth while.

Answer 4

My father in law buys nothing but ford's, my wife's F-150 has 170,000 and runs fine.  My mother-in-laws Expedition has 150,000 and they have no plans for selling it anytime soon.  I've put 175,000 miles on a Ranger and it ran as good as it did at 30,000.  Except after I totaled it (I was 17).  We are currently saving to by a good used ford, I found a Expedition with 100,000 for 5000 last week, and I would have bought it instantly if I had the cash (I will not finance a car ever).  With that price it would take about 10 years for a prius to break even with the cost to own.

If you can find a ford for a good price that runs well, get it.  If the owner before you did normal maintenance you will be fine.  I also have a 1996 Chevy Blazer with 130,000 that runs great and that I'll keep till it falls apart.  

Answer 5

depends on the car. i dont know if this is fact but ive noticed it. on the underbody of the older Ford mustangs theres always a high amount of rust. Even my father whose a mechanic says the same. for under 100k you should be fine though. look for prior accidents and see if its the origional paint job! also check carfax
