Exclamation Avoid New Diesel Fords At All Costs!!!!!!!!

Seeing how my van just spent 13 days at the stealership(waiting for a power steering hose!!! )and has already made 7 trips there for warranty work in a year, I can't wait for the inevitable fuel injector and engine trouble to rear its ugly head. Add to that the unbelievable cost of maintenance(e.g. over $200 for the 2 fuel filters every 15,000 miles-parts only ), and I can't believe anybody is insane enough to buy them!!!
