Man, Ford somehow didn’t manage to screw up! 

by John Shen

What we have here is a drivable car, not too great, not fancy in the least, but drivable and simple, which make it reliable. It’s a wagon, which means it’s practical, and it’s a ford, which means it’s cheap.

So, as far as I can tell, it’s one of the few domestics you can buy from the past 15 years that’s actually… passably decent of a car.

Good job Ford, you accidentally didnt make a bad car.. pat your self on the back for that.

However, at the end of the day, even though the Escort is.. surprising not a bad car, it’s still a late 90s Ford, which means it belongs with the lot of the worst cars ever made. It’s just kind of nice because it’s not THE worst car ever made.

A friend of mine lent me that car above for the most of last summer while he was traveling around the world, I’ll write about it more in detail sometime later.

Last note: fuzzy dice are almost a requirement on this car.
