Our Car


I'm finally getting around to putting up a post about our new car! We've had it for nearly a month now and still love it.It is a 2001 Ford Escort SE and is a great little car. We think it is fun to drive and of course the color is very nice! It has nearly 147,000 miles on it, but so long as it keeps running we don't mind that. It gets about 26 miles to the gallon, which is really sweet. The only thing that really bothers us a lot is that you have to crank it a couple of times to get it to start. But it starts every time, eventually, and runs great, so I guess right now it isn't too big a deal.The only other problem we've had is deciding what to call it or if it even needs a name. We were thinking Sugar or Sweet Thang since we got it on Valentine's Day and it is bright red, but we're not so sure. What do you all think? Right now everyone just calls it our car or the kid's car.And of course we both look good behind the wheel, don't you think? :)Have to thank Shelly and Cory here for the cool, real dolphin that makes our car smell so sweet! So thanks!

Hi Dudettes,

Cool set of wheels you got there. Don't let the miles worry you, do your maintenance (oil changes, brakes, etc.)and it should last another 147K.

Love ya guys, Hal
