.....a grandma version! :AH-HA_wink:

I missed the chance to pick up a 97 Ford Escort wagon ...Mint green...my buddy picked it up for 650 bucks....

42,356 Miles...this thing was in pretty good shape..only downside was that it had been sitting for the last 8 months...

You don't see these much around here any more (unless you're Fly.. :AH-HA_wink: )

Now he can park his truck a bit more...

Actually, I could rock one of these....mint green, and a wagon? Well, there you go... :scratchchin: :AH-HA_wink:

    Heh ... sounds like a good deal, all things considered.

    *chuckles*

    People have told me I should've been a Ford fan ... I could've had an Escort ... and chopped off the "Es" so that it said "cort".

    Escorts are ugly. Around here they are everywhere and they are green station wagons too. They aren't very safe either. My favourite teacher drove one and he got into an accident which wasnt too bad but the car did nothing. He hasnt been at school for a year and a bit. Apparently it was a head on collision by a drunk driver, but the Escort didn't deploy the airbags and the crumple zones crumpled a bit too much as well as the rest of the car. He was the only one in the car luckily because the passenger seat ended up through the windshield. I find it weird but he had two broken legs and was in a coma for a bit. My other teacher has one too. It is a green 1997 sedan, but it has a green interior. He bought it brand new and it came with that colour interior which I had never heard of. It is the weirdest looking interior too.

    I've heard a mix of stories...

    Pre 97-most of the stories aren't great...

    But So far the 97 up don't seem to be doing too bad....

    And if someone wanted to borrow your car for an arraignment and a date, they could head to court while courting in Cort's 'cort! (Bad pun, I know. :duck:)

    LOL!

    Actually ... I'd rather court in my 'cort............and I'm not talking judicially, either ;).
