I drove one for a week last month, and I have to say that it was the worst car I've ever driven! Wanna make your car feel faster for free? Then rent one of these for a week and you'll know what I'm talking about. When I started driving my car again, there was such a dramatic difference between the two vehicles that it took me some time to get comfortable driving my car the way I normally drive it.
Now that Ford has stopped producing garbage like it, perhaps they'll start making cars that people actually want to buy. Although it says something about American drivers and their tendencies that Ford was able to sell 7 million of these POSs.

haha, one of my "buddies" in high school had one of those. One time he asked me to drive him and this chick he was trying to get with someplace because they were gonna be drunk (woot?) and I said "what the ****? do you think I'm a limo driver or something?" and he said "come on, Ill even let you drive my car" the car I had then wasnt in the best conidition but it was still a 222hp v6 so all I said back to him was "is that supposed to sweeten the deal? **** off"
and yes yes, ford sucks
