This goes back to my late father, who grew up fixing Model Ts and A-s, but I'm sure everyone here has heard before:
"Ford." Fix Or Repair Daily.
I was very anti-Ford when young (Chevys were FASTER!) but as time went on I realized there really isn't much difference. However I did get soured on them with the last new Ford I had, a 2006 4WD Ranger that needed front wheels bearings at around 25k miles. The truck was NEVER abused, 4WD was only used to get through snow.

A lot of folks have manual transmissions, I have Manuel drive me around in his tow truck. Seriously, the GMC flatbed that was provided by Ford Roadside Service has crappy seats and believe you me I have complained, yes siree, I gave them a piece of my mind.
On this Excursion (pun intended) my 2016 Exploder Platinum Twin Turbo AWD dropped the AWD, the PTU spewed its guts out (gear lube and other misc bits) over the exhaust and stunk us out, it was only in the Dealer's shop for 8 days getting a brand new PTU, much faster than last time, hooray! With less than 30k miles what do I expect?
Oh right, back to the business about what is my DD, I guess this Enterprise loaner car qualifies as we've had it so many times, thinking of trading straight across for it.
Next question...?

Fair Weather DD is a '18 ZL1. (Traded the silver Z06 in the background for it.)
Also have an '18 Silverado 1500, 6.2L for nasty weather or when I just want a little more room.
