I've had four Crown Vics in a row, and when I've finally beaten the tar out of this one, I'm buying another.

My criticism of Fords is (mostly) affectionate.

You sound like me; I drive my into the ground. I once took an Oldsmobile VistaCruiser wagon in to trade and the guy said, "Looks like you got the good out of this one."

I love Oldsmobiles; always drove them, but now I'm driving Fords because I'm not going to buy a foreign car.

We have a 2007 Taurus and a 2000 Taurus wagon which I keep for the kids to drive when they fly in or somebody needs an "extra" car. It supposedly seats 8, but two of them have to be the size of Charlie McCarthy. :-)

I just got a Windstar which has an entertainment system on it and I slap the earphones on my grandkids and never hear a peep out of them; also on long trips, I can listen to the radio and he can listen to his book or play a game or watch a movie. How we EVER raised our kids without that thing I'll never know.

My inlaws have a Honda Touring Odysessy, which is really nice -- the seats fold all the way into the floor.....and you can lay a whole piece of plywood in the back! She just bought a Buick Lacrene (?) which is really nice, too.

We have way too many cars for the number of people who live here! I just gave a LeBaron (POS) convertible to my nephew in school at South Carolina; it really LOOKED good, but man, Chrysler CANNOT make a transmission, can they??
