I disagree on the K cars.... I still see a few running around NY, and with little rust. The Escorts usually had the motor blow up after 70K miles, junk yards here had tons of them with no heads. X-cars also filled the junk yards pretty early... They didn't even get time to rust.... Both of them almost as bad as Yougo's, which I have seen a few in the junk yards with their original battery.... That's pretty bad...
A strange thing on batteries, Both our ford/mercury LTD's (79 & 87) had the original Ford battery live for 9 years.....
