Q: How long do they last? Are they reliable? Thanks.
A: Yes, My Dad has one that he bought new in 92 and my Mom has a 98. My Dad's has 95,000 on it and he still gets 22 in town and 30+ on the highway. My Mom's has 40,000 and gets about the same around town and 32+ on the highway. Neither one has ever needed major work and neither has ever broken down. They are well maintained though because I am a Ford-Mercury Master Tech.
