Years ago, my dad bought a Cheap Ford truck and it is still going strong to this day. We just borrowed it the other day to haul some things and it ran great. I never would have thought it would last so long because it was so cheap. My dad knew that it would last though because it is a Ford. Because he has had such good luck with that truck, my husband and I only drive Ford vehicles now. Why waste money on anything else when you know that a Ford is built to stand the test of time?
