    My brother worked in a white collar job at Chrysler. He moved on to Owens-Corning when DaimlerChrysler started paying him in Euros. :lol:

    His Euro salary was converted to U.S. dollars and then paid to him. But Daimler is German, and that's who paid him when Daimler merged with Chrysler.

    So they don't use Euros here.

    Both BMW and Mercury have lousy repair records. Ford stopped making Mercurys a few months ago.

    Chevys have bad repair stats too, but they're simpler to maintain and fix. If you keep it maintained, Chevy is like an old buddy.

    Ford made a more luxurious line of cars called Mercury. They made a few different Mercury models. Take another step up and Ford's most luxurious make is the Lincoln Continental. Lincoln is still being made.

    I used to work for Chevy's ad agency. Chevy is an affordable car, but since then I look at the car's or truck's stats and reliability too.

    Consumer Reports magazine has stats that almost identically match the auto companies' internal private stats.
