YU no like Ford?

Even if it is a rebuilt Dodge

So many nice cars in the world. Yet people drive Camrys and Accords.

I had to drive my 85 to the gas station last night. Get this - the tranny acted perfectly normal. It's freakin me out man!!

I'm really in trouble. The smart thing is to buy the old S10. The great thing is to buy a 1996 Cartier. In cream it may be the single classiest car of the 90s:

Ain't... she... sweet...

Looks like a pimpmobile, Pete. It needs a goldplated front grill, tho.

My '95 Windstar was by far the worst car I have ever bought, by a long shot. God-awful. I did buy a new deeply discounted 2003 Taurus for my daughter. It's been pretty reliable.

There's snow in the picture. Was that last week?

It's kinda purty, but I would hate to try to parallel park it.

Regards,

Finn I've never owned a minivan As a matter of fact the only Fords I've owned have been the fullsize ones. My brother in law had a Taurus too with similar results as you, it was pretty good to him.

D I just harvested the pic from the web. It's actually been really nice here for once!

They are pretty big but I've been driving them a long time. As a matter of fact just a couple years ago I wasn't paying attention and let my license expire, and had to retake the driving test. I took it in the 85

I know someone who was putting the body of a '66 Continental onto a 2000 Town Car frame. The 66 looks REALLY big, but the wheelbase and width of the '00 was identical!

The 360 looks pretty good.

I'd LOVE a suicide door convertible! It's one of my favorite all time cars.

I'm having a crisis. A race driving school near me is giving a package: a lesson, 3 or 4 warmup laps, and a 10 lap race driving a real stock car, for $124.

My wife would kill me!
