NOW UNTIL I BOUGHT THIS POS I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A FORD MAN BUT NOW I DON'T KNOW WHAT MANUFACTURER TO TRUST, CHEVY HAS PROBLEMS WITH THEIR BLAZER TRANSMISSIONS TOO. I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED WITH LESS THAN A HUNDRED THOUSAND ON THE ODOMETER AND FOUND THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT ORIGINAL WHEN I CHANGED IT LAST TIME NOW AFTER I FIX IT I WILL SELL IT A DRIVE IT THROUGH THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP SHOW ROOM,MAYBE THAT WOULD MAKE THEM ANSWER FOR ALL THE PROBLEMS EVERYONE HAS WITH THESE PROBLEMS. MAYBE WHAT MY BROTHER SAYS IS TRUE FORD MEANS F%*@ED OVER REBUILT DODGE. *JB
