Default sad: End of the line

It's just too bad that the transmissions tend to fail around 100-140K. If they
failed under warranty, i'm sure that Ford would have taken care of the problem
within the last 20 years of so.

6 year 75k mile warranty on tranny
same on head gasket
same on dpfe, which is a 20 minute DIY anyhow.

I've got the 2003 Merc Sable and its a nice ride. Not a caddy, but
very comfortable on long trips.
