As a matter of fact, Warranty Direct just released the results of their study of the reliability of 450,000 vehicles 3 to 9 years of age (the largest study of its kind), and Mazda took the top place

I can tell you from experience with a '94 Ranger -- Once you replace all the factory parts with quality aftermarket parts, it is virtually trouble-free. Mine is 13 years old, has over 110,000 miles (

The car companies should hire Frank to find the weak spots in their designs. If it passes the Clarici test then they can put it on the market. If it fails, they have to start over. Larry Miller

You really should consider changing the oil every 3000 miles or so, just for safety's sake. 200,000 is a bit much, even for the we tight club.....

They're just trying to be cool like me. BZ '90 CRX w/loud exhaust. Over 17 years, and still under $200 in repairs. Still gets over 50mpg. Still a blast to drive.
