I have heard too many people complain that the car they drive is a pile of shit when they have no idea how to take care of it. I once knew a guy that complained that turbo-charged cars are crap because they only last 50,000 - 75,000 miles. After I saw how he took care of it I knew exactly why he felt that way. Neither is more reliable than the other. Reliabilty is really dependant on the owner.

Who can disagree with that statement. Reliabilities number 1 problem is usually the operator. As I to have friends say their car is shit (excuse my english) without considering the fact that they havent changed there oil since they've had the car, or changed anything else except their cd player.
On a side note: I find it weird that I actually used the word "Reliabilities" as a noun. LOL
