How many miles?

+1, and most modern cars will last 100k relatively problem free if you drive properly and keep up on maintenance. As someone pointed out though, the resale value of a yaris with 100k miles, and a hyundai with 100k miles tells the true tale of long term reliability. I agree they have come a long way, but they still have a ways to go.

I had a real lemon Focus...

It was a 2000 Ford Focus Maunal Trans.
It was at 37,000k miles, and had a major problem with the cyclinders.... ford never recognized the problem and I had to pay over 5,000$ to fix it....


I now hate ford.
Yet.... I love the grand marquis which is similar to a ford.... most reliable car you will ever know besides a toyota.
