New/Used Wheels
Here's my new ride. A 2006 Explorer (back to the Ford again - I guess we're a Ford house). It's so quiet and nice that it seems a shame I'm going to have to throw a ladder up on the roof rack.

Re: New/Used Wheels
Very pretty but you'll have to double your fee's to feed that thing.

Re: New/Used Wheels
Very nice.
Time to raise the fees to pay for it.  |

Re: New/Used Wheels
Nick - With the price of gas being so high, I thought maybe you'd spring for a Smart Car!

Re: New/Used Wheels
Just don't park that Ford in the garage or too close to the rear of the home.
We used to be a Ford family too till....

Re: New/Used Wheels
Rick, are you any closer to getting satisfied with Ford's response?

Re: New/Used Wheels
I saw a Smart Car too last week on the same road I broke down on in Philly. It looked like a toy and reminded me of the cars we saw in Ireland.

NO! They have offered a minimum settlement of pennies on the dollar and thats it.
Still have the attorneys handling it.

Re: New/Used Wheels
Keep fighting Rick! I bought a Mercury Sable, new off the showroom floor years ago. The problems were unbelievable and ongoing. It must have been one of those cars built after a liquid lunch. One day in final frustration I parked the car downtown and walked away to thankfully never see it again. I called Ford and told them where it was. If they wanted to pick it up they could, if not let nature take it's course.
I spent the next 2.5 years fighting with them. I think their lawyers finally told them I wasn't going away and wasn't going to be intimidated by them. I was fine with the final settlement.
