Mitsubishi, holy shit. I would recommend bailing out quick while there are still people that will take it off of your hands. The Celica is a good car and so is the Escape.

You have not been keeping up Jag has had the number 1 rating for maintenance now for several years. You are the one living in the 70s.

Taurus is nearly imposible to resale, we have 15 of the POS sitting on the lot leaking oil everywhere. Mustangs look nice, but ride like total shit. Ford trucks have been getting their asses kicked by Dodge lately, hell the Silverado holds value better than a F150. Ford has crooks for dealers, they make a shitty product, and have horrible customer service!!!!

In actuality, they are business men who are taking pictures of the building they are about to buy.

I would be very interested in seeing the Jaquar data you are talking about, I know it has improved, but that last numbers I saw were over 20% along with the Beemer.
