Yet another area were Ford dominates. Do you all know that the new 2005 Mustang is 53% cleaner for the Environment then the 2004? Yep, sure is.

I have a Navigator, you know, as in Lincoln, as in subsidiary of Ford! lol.gif Ok, it is a good thing that Ford put out a hybrid, although I really do not like those Escapes, but let's not forget about all of the HUGE gas guzzlers they put out too.

I heard Lexus is putting out a nice hybrid SUV as is Buick.

I may have to try one out but I will wait a few years so they get all the kinks out of it. Plus I have to pay off the car I have now! GEES!

I would never buy another Ford!

After the way they treated me with 2 lemons in 3 years! Not just
that they were lemons but the dealers in my area can't service a pair
of rollskates correctly.

Ford Corporate office did nothing. Arbitration was useless and
lemon law court in NJ meant I had to keep making the payments
until it went to court which was almost 6 months.

1996-2003 I purchased/leased
2 Expedition (1lemon)
1 Grand Marquis
3 Excursions (1 lemon)
1 F150 Harley

Now I have 1 vehicle CTS

Well, it all depends on how well the car has been taken care of, who built the car, where it was built, and on what day (Seriously it does). My family has had so many Fords, and they all ran like champs. Then there are some people who have trouble like you have with them.
Grand Marquis werent the best cars Ford has made, but Expeditions, F-150 Harleys, and Excursions (Especially if it has a diesel) are all pretty good vehicles.
