[Shotimes] OT: AWD Tempo

[James White]

Don't know about the AWD, but my neighbor had a V-6 Tempo that he ran 220k
on a 170 mile daily commute to Schumberg, Ill and he did nothing more than
normal maintenance on it.  Gave it to his daughter who used it 3 years going
to college in Indy and still the thing is going strong with 260k on the
clock.

Maybe the rear drive is the weak point?  And also the normal FoMoCo weak
suspension?  But the suspension parts have at least become cheap.

"double clutch"  it's good for both you and your SHO
