JBach--
You seriously don't think 1986-current domestics can last 80-100k miles?
The Taurus came in 1986, and I can't think of any domestic that has made more of an impact in the last 20 years. Maybe the 300 Chrysler, but then that's going full-circle and putting RWD back into a midsize, so there's going to be some hoopla.
Ralph, a 1987 Taurus, had 180k when dad decided I needed a new car-- it was as new.
Mother's 1989 Tempo(affectionately called Woody by the family-- My sis wrecked it and they put a 4x4 on the front bumper supports to embarass her into not futzing with the stereo while in traffic) went quite a few further, to be left on the side of the interstate at 240k miles.
You're making false arguments here-- just because one is good does not mean the other has to be bad.
Congrats on the new car! Have you named him/her yet?
