As a bookend to the Most unreliable car you've ever had thread, I'm wondering what is the most reliable vehicle you've ever had?
For me it's been the Ford Panther platform. Sure, they don't have all the modern bells and whistles, but with the exception of the stupid heater blend door motor being a POS and a pain in the tuckus to replace, my Crown Vics have run like tops, needing little beyond routine maintenance. That maintenance has been affordable, which is important because I can't work on my own cars and must take them to a mechanic.
But since the Panther platform was discontinued in 2011, I'm starting to think about what to buy when or if I ever need to replace my Crown Vic. What vehicles and/or platforms have been the most reliable and trouble-free in your experience?
