Not sure if I have a pic of mine. Same year and model here.....
I'm sort of a Euro-only snob.
This compact SUV has cost me 1 water pump total since new and it's a '13. Out of all the cars I've had this has been the most impressive to me and good to me; especially with regards to reliability. We will certainly be continuing to spend a lot of time together and the next new on will probably be the same.

Never heard of it....
I bought Yello Mustang on April 16, 2016 with 54,000 miles. Today, it has 265,000 miles on it....
In that time, ive replaced the following;
Shocks/struts, ball joints and tie rod ends.
I replaced all the rocker arms at 212,000 due to ticking.
Changed the heater hoses and drive belt as a precaution.
Replaced 4 pulleys and belt tensioner
Change spark plugs every 45,000 miles.
I used Perfect Stop Exact Spec Brake Pads and Ford Rotors and they went over 100,000 miles.
I installed 4.30 gears and rebuilt the posi (preference, but wasn't needed)
Changed the water pump due to a leak
And that's it....

You’d have to watch TV. Probably cable networks. Not sure they advertise on the normal national networks. It’s like insurance/extended warranty for car repairs. It’s both legit and a scam at the same time…. If you get the idea.
LINK: Car Shield And if you read reviews. It’s hit and miss. People either praise them or hate them.
My Daily Driver from 1983 until 1989...
My 440 had our own design camshaft, featuring a 1-5-4-2-6-3-7-8 firing order to improve mixture distribution. It was ground by Nolan Jamora at Iskenderian.
Carb was a home built 650 double pumper with Holley Experimental "Nose Bowls." I also had a home made dual point distributor. Switching on the second set of points in 4th gear gave 10° of timing retard and greatly improved top end.
I could bury the 150mph speedo.

No pictures handy, but I drive a 2004 Honda Civic Coupe in Magnesium Metallic with the little spoiler on the trunk lid and 66,000 actual miles. Fits me like an old leather jacket. I keep fresh tires on it, and it handles like a go-kart.
Wow. 66k. My Civic is an 07 and am going to hit 200k in a couple weeks.
