The Ford Fusion released in 2006 was a dramatically improved vehicle from what the company produced in terms of competitiveness in the market. GM streamlined their brands by killing off Oldsmobile, Pointiac, and Saturn, and Chrysler's muscle sedans/coupes and SUVs established a loyal following. I wouldn't question the quality of any modern domestic vehicle. The difference between Ford/GM/Chrysler and the best that Toyota has to offer in terms of reliability is a much smaller gap now, to the point that it's probably immaterial.

Even Kia is better than both of those junks... But all three equally low klass.

How many Ford and Chevy cars have you owned and/or driven? Trying to understand where you came to possess such in-depth knowledge so as to be able to make such a blanket statement.

Or did you just read it somewhere and decide it was gospel?


1986 Taurus
1988 Escort
1997 Blazer - the biggest piece of crap ever invented. Had a dead battery a few times a year from the beginning that Chevy could never figure out
2001 GMC Sierra

Learned my lesson. These were family cars. I drove Toyota and Hondas until I could afford German.


DD had a Mercedes. Liked it until it needed ridiculous maintenance. He now has a BMW and loves it. Lesson: German does not necessarily equal good.

Also, he drives my Lincoln regularly and loves it.

My guess is none of you have significant experience with any of these cars, such that you can actually compare them.


DD should be DH, clearly.

I’d like you to take a drive in my fully loaded Lincoln Corsair and then tell me it’s like vomit or poop.


I'm PP to whom you responded. We had a Lincoln for years. Never again.


So you’ve never driven my car. Got it.
