Ditto. Buddy sold his S-Type after repairs drove him nuts; both amount of times and cost. Hopefully you'll have better luck.

I've seen the late models driving around here (normally in the more "well-to-do" parts ), and I like where Jag's heading.

LOL, not yet.

Yeah but I found a reputable mechanic with his own small shop with rates that are about half of the dealer or larger shops. I took this into consideration when I bought it, but it checked out clean and since I'm (for now) saving $500+ a month if a repair happens it won't be a big deal.

Love the new Mustang, but I wanted to drive something that I didn't have to pay for and not obsess about every chip, swirl or scratch.

Again I am saving $6k a year in payments, so if something major happens I'm fine with it. I took that into consideration before buying.

Great time to refi, and 20 year rates are great, 15 are even better, but sometimes that's a stretch on the payment. I'm with you, it RWD or AWD for me, NO FWD, hate it. Good luck on the Jag

I was not aware of a Taurus with a supercharged engine making 400hp driving the rear wheels.
