I think this is going to vary greatly according to what other cars you have worked with as to the ease of repairs, and vary with the individual cars as far as reliability. I want to state first that we've only owned our D for about 6 months, so others with longer experience may feel free to differ with my opinion :) We've put about 3000 miles on it in that time. The ONLY thing that has failed was the fuel pump and I aggravated that by running it out of gas. This, from a car that has been in storage for 12 years or more is pretty remarkable in my opinion. As far as ease of working on a D, well, that depends. I'd MUCH rather work on a '65 Mustang. That's easy! But, compared to my '95 Ford Probe GT that I drive to work daily, the D is very easy to work on. Lots more room in the engine compartment. The dash disassembles easier. Lots of other things that are easier, or no harder than working on a new FWD car. Just my $.02!!
