    I owned a Ford Escort that had 130,000 miles on it and the only thing I ever had to replace is the Timing Belt right before I sold it.

    I wouldn't limit myself to Honda or Toyota either. GM and Ford have a very high quality, which is backed up by JD Power reports. The perception of the public is that they are cheap cars, but in reality they tend to rate close to Toyota and higher than Honda.

    I would recommend reading this column before ruling our all other brands.

    • Well I know the GM and Ford ratings have gone up, but I'm still not convinced from personal experience. When I ride in American cars that are 5 years old, they mostly seem to have more rattles and quirks than my 13 year old Toyota. I've even had recent GM rentals that seemed rather spotty in areas. I'm sure it's not as bad as back in the 80's (or the Ford Granada / Fairmont era, ICK!), but it does seem like they haven't quite caught the Japanese.
