Re: Do you like ford

Hell 80's Chevy/Olds 305's could do that. I had a Delta that went 245000 with just a water pump and timing chain. It has nothing to do with what country it came from. A good design and proper maintenance and good luck is all.

Re: Do you like ford

Regular maintenance can make or break the life of a motor. Auto manufactures don't design cars to be 100% reliable for the whole life span of the vehicle because parts are a large money maker for them. My dad's 97' silverado just rolled over 250k and the only things he has had to replace was the alt, water pump, and fuel pump.
