My husband is a DEDICATED ford/lincoln/mercury man. I have been willing in the past to drive one as we have found something I liked.
It is time to replace my 97 ford thunderbird with 164,000 miles. Its a v6. I have driven it for 13 years. Been happy with it, not had to put a lot of money in it for repairs. THIS is the big reason my DH is a dedicated ford guy. Early on we had really bad luck with GM. The thunderbird is still running but needs new cv joints and the rear window now leaks and no a/c and I THINK the transmission will go soon.
So we knew we were going to replace this year. I am looking to spend about 6000.00. I have looked long and hard and I REALLY like the Chrysler seabring convertibles. Several are in my price range. He is not adamant no but resistant because its not a ford.
I WILL get either a convertable or a sunroof this time.Wanted one last time couldn;t find one and was super hesitant to put one in after market due to people telling us they often leaked.
So I can afford a sebring or a pt cruiser which often have sun roofs. SO any chrysler owners out there that love or hate them??
Before you say just get a ford mustang, getting one in my price range makes me leery as it makes me think it has been beat on. So I am resistant to that.
Absolutely do not want an 8 cylinder. I would LOVE a 4 cylinder, but finding one with a sun roof or convertable is VERY VERY hard. Though I did find some VW bugs both with sunroof and convertable.
Originally we were thinking we would keep thunderbird and fix the cv joints so we would always have a back up car, but very recently he has been leaning towards NOT fixing the Thunderbird.
We are looking to get something with right under 100,000 miles. SO these 2 Chrsyler models consistantly pop up in our price range.
Any thoughts???
