Pinto? LOL
Maybe a Vega.
I actually owned one of each in my life.
I almost hate to ask...what was better?
Pinto I'm guessing.
Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

Been way to many years to remember.
I doubt I had either one for more than a year or two and both were used when I got them.
I no longer directly engage trolls

Considering that the Pinto exploded if you rear ended it, versus the rusting out of the Vega’s, the choice was clear…

Ford Tempo-rarily got it running again!
Dropping knowledge on forum MAGAts.
Unapologetically intellectually superior.

The thing with Tempo's was everything OEM on it was garbage. Once you replaced everything with after market parts, it was a good car
The car I bought after one of my nephews got a job at a parts store was a Chevy Cavalier. He told me no one would come in looking for parts for that car. And my Cavalier went through 3 family members before it got sold out of the family.
And me personally if you can find a Cobalt in nice shape for a decent price, buy it. Change the timing belt every 100,000 miles. It'll last you a lot of years.

We had both the Cavaliers and Cobalts at work. While I had a co worker call one of them a
-a-lier, I thought that both of them were quality cars. Really liked the Cobalt. We had very little issues with both cars, compared to the POS Focuses we are slowly getting rid of…

The Ford Focuses have a Bell curve of reliability-stay away from the early 2000's and newer ones, you should be fine.
They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

Definitely stay far, far away from any Focus with the PowerShift (DPS6) dry dual-clutch transmission!
Morgan Wallen is a piece of garbage.
