I guess that we can agree to disagree. BaLListic didn't mean to slight you for buying the Nissan. Through "my personal" experience domestic cars (particularly fords) are more reliable. I owned two Toyota's and hated both of them (transmission problems on both). I think every one I know with a Toyota pickup either has valve train problems or rod bearings "knocking." May be I just go lucky and got all the good domestics. I've had a 79 f 100, 92 ranger, 96 GT, 97 Taurus , 90 GT (present). All of the vehicles have been great. I had some intake trouble on the 96 but it was under recall.

I guess also it goes back to what you are looking for in a car. If it isn't a full-size pickup or a sports car I not really that interested. I just don't see the appeal of a camery, civic, or a KIA speck.

But I guess that's why ice cream comes in chocolate and vanilla.
