My Dad always bought Chrysler products. That changed in '81 when the K Cars came out. We tried a GM vehicle ('83 Buick Century - great ride but leaked oil like a sieve). Then in '86 we got our first Ford, an LTD. That was traded for a '93 Taurus.
My first car ordered from the factory was a '96 Taurus LX (back when "LX" was top of the line, for some reason later years LX became the bottom of the line).
The '96 was traded for a 2002 Taurus SES which was totaled in 2004
Next was a 2004 Taurus SES.
Traded the 2004 Taurus for a 2013 Lincoln MKZ which I sold to my cousin in 2017.
Today I have a 2017 Lincoln MKZ.
