we test drove a mercury mariner yesterday. yuk. and it vibrated like hell when you stopped at a red light. i don't think i even want to waste time trying an escape after that ride.

I drove a Cobalt in Jersey for the BC , not a bad little car.....Best car I think the family ever had and I say this because my mom bought it new was a Pontiac 6000. She drove the crap out of it and then gave it to me and I drove the crap out of it, twas the lil car that could of course after making such a great car for 4 years they discontinued it lol.
My parents always drove Chryslers and the transmissions always fell out , when mom got divorced she bought the Pontiac great car but eventually she went back to her ways of buying Chryslers and replacing the transmissions.
We had Ford tractors when I was a kid , hard clutches and they were always breaking something , best tractor we ever had was a Farm All from about 1960.....Best car Ive ever owned was actually a small truck made by Nissan , beat it to death and it never gave up.....
