        Well I have stopped buying stuff for cars I don't own. Is that a step in the right or wrong direction?

          Charlie, my man card's on microfilm already. Because I don't know which way to hold a wrench. I can put gas in the car, though.

          Keep heart. A whole lot of it doesn't matter. Not in the big scheme of life.

            Those have been very highly reviewed by everyone that has driven them. Some friends of ours bought one and it is a neat little car...as far as neat little cars go.

              I heard if you're going to get one, get the turbo model. The NA engine a dog. Just what I've heard, never driven one. Also, they are ugly, just what I've seen though.

                Charlie's trying to make a car-choice and he called on all of the expertise here for advice.

                It didn't go so well. I mean, .....why shoot a guy up for asking? I mean....

                OK never mind, film at eleven. Geez. I mean, yeah we've got a Mustang and a Fusion and an F-150. And they all suck. Every one of them.

                They suck because they're Fords. I mean...I don't know what I mean.

                  Not my cup o' tea, but I think they are pretty decent for the price..... nice commuter. I've also been told, "get the turbo" if you're getting it for anything other than a teenager's 1st car.

                        A friend of mine has one. Its the slowest thing ive ever ridden in (other than a 1.6 miata). Butttt..... he LOVES it. Its actually a fun car, but I personally wouldn't buy one for myself (have you seen the Focus ST?)

                        So good car, but not for getting your blood pumping.

                              Jcharliem, did you get one of these? I think it'd be cool with a VW diesel in it. I just can't bring myself to buy a Golf, good lord they are ugly. I'm leaning towards another Escape for my new appliance. Old one is getting... old. I don't have tolerance for working on the appliance.
