Around the mid 90’s when the new Taurus came out the car magazines were going mental about how great they were.
So I talked my parents into buying one.
They got a new green Mercury Sable.
So sweet...
Turned into ti biggest POS that they ever owned.
Still give me grief over it.
Been nothing but Toyota and Honda ever since and ZERO problems.

Back in my younger days, I was at a dealership looking for a car. It was to be my first new car purchase, after a decade of driving clunkers.
A salesman took me aside. “Don’t buy any new model,” he said quietly. “Wait at least a few years for them to get the bugs out.”
Amazing, eh? A car salesman who put his customers first.
