Yep, that about sums it all up. Mitsus can take it!

Domesitcs = unreliable

 

my dad is worried about me getting one with turbo mainly. he thinks i'm screwed if the turbo goes out. says he'd prefer i get an RS... which i don't want but i'd rather have an RS than no eclipse at all!! that and the guy just put a new(er) engine in this car and he didnt tell me how many miles are on the engine. however, you guys are right that my uncle is a chevy/ford guy. he's got a corvette and i brand new ford truck. actually, he was the one who said that eclipses are okay if you take car of them REAL good. his employee is the one that said they're **** and expensive.

 

Well like anything in just about anything, if you service your car well, pay close attention to everything, keep up the maintence instead of letting things go until something breaks down, all the parts will last a long time.

 

haha think maybe you could come convince my dad of that?

 

Him and the master mechanic should already have figured that one out, lol.

Besides, what with my license suspended, I'm not going anywhere.

 

lol master mechanic. well i can't say i share your opinion that domestics are better. i like chevy and ford as much as i like mitsubishi. no license huh? why would that be sir? that why you sit on here all day? *wink*

 

Lol shaddup I'm in class at college right now. And I never said domestics were better. I said the exact opposite, lol. Yeah, domestics suck when it comes to reliability. I like Ford and Chevy too, but that doesn't change the fact I think they are crap a lot of the time.

And if you want to see why, look down in the Kill Stories forum.

damn. putting your high priced education to use by sitting online during class eh? yeah me too. Sociology is quite boring. So why are Chevy & Ford crap a lot of the time? my opinion is... all cars are crap. no matter who makes them. but you gotta have one to live. might as well have one that's fun.

P.S. great story. smooth.

 

Lol I pay $1200 a semester.

Check consumer guide listings for the top ten worst used cars to ever own. American cars usually make up 7-9 of the cars on that list, lol.
