Aren’t we actually beating live horses with a dead horse? Can we add an emoji for that or bench racing?
I like ECU, ABS and modules, until they do not work. Funny someone mentioned the HVAC actuators. The heater box has been replaced after ruining out a second actuator in my 2007 Merc, and I think there was a similar issue in my Ranger. There have been very little non preventative maintenance and regular service repairs needed to either. Based on that, if insurance agrees, I would not have a problem buying a S197 Mustang with a family member - if I could find one that is not beat like that dead horse! Too bad the back seats in Mustangs are basically useless in any one newer than 1993.
@Trickflo ate you still around? What did you pick, or are you still on the fence and driving a Prius?
