Oh yea, don't forget the timing belt and water pump, App. $800.00.... Oh ya, that's normal maintenance..... Doesn't count....Point I'm trying to make is, please quit badmouthing American cars, I've been driving them since the 60's and still am.... considerably less problems and $$$ than most foreign cars, and yes, I've had both... Google Toyota Engine Sludge if your looking... Any car can have problems, mechanical stuff does...Give me A GM, Ford or Dodge with a timing chain any day.....
