[Mach 1]

lol...how does 100,000 miles in two years equate to severe useage? You dont have a clue. If you drive 50,000 easy miles, its not severe useage just because it happens in one year. That actually would be less severe useage, as it means less cold starts, like unit said, which means less engine wear.

My freind had a 95 'T/A with the LT1, and that car was definately worthy of being called a GM product, as it broke down constantly, leaving him stranded continuously, with several tow truck bills. He was a mechanic, and maintained the car meticuously. It had 2 or more oil leaks at the same time often, and would just stop running on him with electronic problems. Even the dealer couldnt fix it. He traded it in on a Honda accord because he was so frustrated with it. He bought an old but somewhat more reliable Monte Carlo to play with, a 79'.

How many people with 5.0 or 4.6 mustangs do you know who traded them in on a Honda because they were unreliable? None. Yeah, thats what I thought.
