The difference in the level of complexity is about the difference between the Wright Brother's airplane and a 777. (The post-2000 versions rise to the level of complexity of a flying saucer!)

Well-maintained, an 850-70 can be... well not a "dream" but certainly "OK". Poorly maintained it can be a nightmare. And it's hard to tell which car is which. The common areas of failure aren't obvious and they can be hidden.

Have you considered a Camry or an Accord?
