This is only the 3rd "Ford" I've ever owned--Ford in the 60's and '70's had a reputation of "Fix Or Repair Daily"--Chevys ran and ran strong at least on the street and drag strip--Camaros w/302's would often walk all over the Mustangs, Fairlanes, Falcons with the GT options. And yes many of us did street race back then--so Don't start the "irresponsible " put downs--
I've always liked hot Chevy's from the 60's and early '70's Camaro, Chevelle Malibu, El Camino, Nova SS, never really liked the Mustangs, Fairlanes, or Falcons(other than the 63 1/2 Sprint Coupe).
Haven't really liked any of the cars from GM or Ford since that time and today--yuk --Chrysler seems to be the only one with a design team that has a clue--damn hard to tell a Ford from a Chevy, KIA, Honda, Toyota, or damn near any other marque without the badges--except for the European imports like BMW, Jag, Mercedes, Audi, Mini(
)--
Oh well just my " 'af pennys worth, Sir"
