wholly crap!! I didn't think they made a Ford that big. Kinda like this one. Saw it on the Today show last week. How the hell do you park something like that?

with gas prices like it is i guess it would have to stay parked in the drive!

we had smart cars for years in england, you can buy extra panels for them in any design you like and swap them in minutes.

hehe, I finally looked at the ad...

It has a V6 AND traction control? With a V6 in this car do you need traction control? I would imagine that it would take an act of God or Ice to turn the tires over...Nice looking car though.

I had a 93 mustang with a 4 banger in it...I called it a Pinto with a body kit...

to be honest, in the winter the car is a pig on snow, i bought snow tires, and the traction control still kicks in before you put your foot on the gas, the otherthing is that even with the TC turnedd off if the back end really steps out at all it still removes the power, almost like ford dont really trust you with it. As for the V6 power .... eeerm well its an american car, so you have to accept that there is a ' horsepower-eater-upperer ' that i assume you get to trade in when you sell the car and get your horsepower back?
