Anything by FORD. "Quality is job one!" I'll never forget the commerical they ran of the black guy on the Ford assembly line:
"I seed duh quaddity dat goes in dem."
First time I saw it, I yelled at the tv: "You can't even say 'quality', much less produce it!"

I still remember the company car my father was plagued with when I was little. It was, of course, a Ford. And it needed a major repair every other week or so. By major repair they meant over 500 dollars. This does not take into account the several thousand lesser repairs that were needed every day just to keep the car from imploding on the road.
And the kicker was: The car was brand new to the company fleet. (Fairmont? I seem to remember it being a Fairmont..)
So my wife wanted to buy a Ford... I told her I'd divorce her.

I forgot the new Mercury Cougar!
My God, that thing is a design nightmare! They finally figured out that the tranny was overheating because of it's design, so they finally made a revision to it... but it's still a Ford with a 'sexy cool' 'kitty-kitty' badge on it...
