06mariner Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Well, today ended on a good note....I bought myself a little college graduation present in the form of a 2011 Escape Limited. Sangria Red, black interior, every option but nav. My mother is taking over my 06 Mariner, my dad has his 2010 MKZ, and we have our 2010 E-150 high-top conversion van with the wheelchair lift in it for my sister. We are finally getting rid of our 97 Jeep Cherokee that gave us a great 14 years of use, it is finding a new home with my grandfather to use to run to home depot and stuff when he does his little projects on the house. I'll post a picture of all the cars together this weekend on here....it will be nice having all Fords in the driveway for a while! -Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted the white suede but no one had one near me and so this was my second choice! I have mud flaps on order so they should be getting put on next week. I love it!!!

06mariner Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 Love the MKZ too! Thanks! I just don't get why people trash them. Granted the handling sucks, you really can't find a car like it for the money (we ended up getting over $8,000 off by the time it was all said and done). We've had it a year now and so far 10,000 trouble free miles! My dad says he's never had a car before that has gotten as many compliments as it has. Thanks again!
