Every car I have ever owned has left me stranded multiple times. I finally thought I got wise. I bought a brand new Sport Trac with a 7,000 tow package just to tow the Cobra. It has 27,000 miles on it. It has left me stranded 3 times already. I have had two really tough cars though that I loved but were simply intolerable. 1972 Jag E-Type V-12 convertible and 1980 Maserati Merak SS. There was no way you could keep up with mechanical failures on the Jag. It had something like 25 water hoses alone, all of which were ready to fail at any given time. While you were waiting for parts to come in for a given failure, a caliper would seize up or the alternator would quit. The Maserati was mechanically very sound but you could never get caught in the rain. If you did, you would never catch up with the rust. Any time you got caught in the rain it really meant a ground up restoration.
