I've never seen a bunch of guys get so butthurt when they hear something negative about their car. I didnt start out bad mouthing anything. I was poking fun at his "not to make excuses" comment because it sounds like something you hear honda drivers say. And I think it's pretty well established that the Japs and Germans are making all American cars look bad right now. It seems to me that most new members come on here thinking that having a V8 automatically means they rule the streets. Like I said before, the LS is a great all around car but masters at absolutely nothing.
I only bring up reliability issues when someone says something about that first. When someone joins up to ask for opinions on the LS, I give them one. To me, no it isn't at all a reliable car compared to most other cars out there. I'm not saying this is solely reliability, but there is a reason Ford decided to stop making the LS. They continue the Navigator, Town Car, and had a long run for the Marks but for some reason, not the LS. There is also a reason for it having resale value that falls like a brick. Why is that? I really dont base reliability opinions off of my own car. I've had other cars break down more than the LS but I thought they were very reliable cars. I purposely beat the hell out of the LS on numerous occasions just to put it in the shop to spite the dealership. I base my opinion off of what numerous Ford mechanics, consumer report magazines, and what other non-forum going members have told me.
I never made fun of anyone for winning or losing a race against someone else. I, like a lot of others, call BS on something or want to see proof, but when did I rip on anyone for racing their LS? Maybe it's me but I see the LS as a serious niche car (which is why I can see you guys being oh so upset) just like the Mark is now. The Mark, compared to the LS has way more aftermarket though so I don't see any of you keeping your car for another 10 years which if you really loved this car so much and were such LS enthusiasts, then you would.
Last time I checked this was LincolnVSCadillac. If you can't stand having a GM owner on here then I'll gladly pack up and leave like most others seem to do.
