I can't see Ford on that list..

mecrs have been probs since they got with Chrysler . .until that time the cars were more hand made now they have all the same probs that 'assembly line ' cars have.

I have the sts v8, the 2005 model and have only had a few probs with the computer, after that was fixed, never had any more probs . . 24K miles . .

and besides who cares? they give me another if I need one while they work on that one. caddy has been very good to me . . this is my second one . . might get the xlrv next year. gonna drive one and see if it pumps hard like the vette . . the chevy dealer blows

no luxury fords my friend

Who cares? About 95% of the consumers care if their car breaks down. The number one thing owners want is reliability. What is the purpose of owning a car if you can't drive it and you take it into the shop once a month?

look close...ford owns jag

blame Chris Bangle

wow... too expensive luxury cars

95% of peeps don't buy luxury :2 cents:

Either Cadillac or BMW.Mercedes have constant problems and average life of a Jag is about 5 years unless it's pampered.

Hummer H2

My last car was an E class Mercedes. Not sure I would ever buy another Mercedes.

It's strange because I always would have assumed one came with the other. Those who buy luxury would want reliability too. But I guess things don't always work out that way. Nothing worse than a car that won't start in the middle of winter, or shuts down at a busy intersection or has ongoing small issues.

3 Mercedes (All S Class) and 1 BMW and never had one problem with any of them. Most relaible vehicles I have ever owned. The only American vehicle I own is a GMC Truck and is just as reliable.

but benz has a great roadside service and extended warrenty for like 3 years
after that just sell the car and get a new benz

why is that?

Quality and features for the price. BMW has them beat hands down. Not to mention my 525 is way more fun to drive.

I like the 760i BMW . . and the mercades 550 is very nice too . . not to interested in small cars .. my STS is to small and about 1000 lbs to light for me taste

I just bought me a Mercedes-Benz CLS, I'm very satisfied :)

you like wich 760? the one that chris bangle designed?

beats me, just would like a bigger motor than a 4.5 or 5.0. . the last 2 digits on the beemers are motor size . . the first digit is model . . I do like full size lux sedans

ya i know that...
but
the newer 7's are designed by chris bangle
and that sucks ass because it doesnt have THAT german look

I personally am never going to be merc again either. Unless I can pay someone else to take it for repairs when it breaks down. I'm going to try to get a GS 350 and dump my CLK 500.

ive heard the BMW 7 Series had alot of issues when it first came out.

I have a cls amg model with 6k miles and I have not had any problems with my car..

yes,but that's common with all new series. Previous e-class models are very reliable, can't comment on the latest.

first off, these cnn most/least things are fuckin bullshit. With that said... lets take a look at the list above.

Most reliable: Tahoe, Yukon

Least Reliable: H2

How can one of 3 SUVs that are built on the same frame and share 90% of mechanical components make the "least" list and the two other siblings make the "most" list.

These things suck balls. I dont buy it. :2 cents:

that sucks, i was planning on buying the sts

God damn people, learn to spell for fuck's sake!

My buddy just bought the Acura RL .. the car is really nice for the price .. it has all the bells and whistles . it just maybe my next car .. I have a TL S-Type right now but i think it's time to upgrade ..

is it mursaydeez? :upsidedow

My hummer threw an oil pump at 4k miles.. :disgust
