You forgot one thing. Fords are........ FORDS! These are the same people that brought you - EXPLORER roll over deaths and Crown Victoria's exploding and cooking people to death, and then tried to downplay, cover-up, and lie about it, to the point of falsifying crash test results. If you investigate, Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury have about twice the recalls on their products. These cars and trucks are badly designed to the point of being dangerous. Maybe these images of a Phoenix Police officer that barely lived through his Crown Victoria explosion will stick in your mind.
