People used to Toyotas would certainly disagree with you
there.  Aside from that I agree.  The cooling system is a crap design
but great when it's working, and keeping up with broken exhaust
struts and other exhaust stuff is an irritation in salt
country.  Looks like some significant improvements there from 1.9l to
2.1l -- fewer struts, cast-iron collector, better muffler support.
