I want her to get something bigger, but she thinks the CRV is too big.
Zero risk of her stealing the Fiat.
We actually test drove a Cooper S vert recently as a possible toy for the toyhauler. It would fit but my wife is on the opposite end. She felt so unsafe in such a small car and didn't like how rough it took the bumps. I actually thought it was a really cool little car but was outvoted...
The Mini is a true POS. These cars, made by BMW, are not made to be sitting in the sunny Vegas heat. Every piece of plastic on the car wants to rot off after 3 years, one water pump, one thermostat housing, hundreds of dollars of plastic, vacuum pump (cam driven), and lots of interior bits have been replaced......
Nice ride. I'm starting to take notice of lincoln again. I used to love their old Town Cars and Continentals, especially on long trips. Before the large SUV craze hit.
I've always been severely disappointed that they won't use the suicide doors for the back. I know there is some kind of law that made it go away, but with today's tech surely there could be a safety lock out system so we could have them back.

Yup! I had 3 town cars, a '91, a '97, and an '05. Great rides! And almost unbeatable on long trips! I say almost becuse my '16 F350 KR DRW rides great, is very quiet in the cabin, has a better seating position, is easier to get in and out of, and I would really have to search to fnd something better! 😀😀😀😀
I traded the '05 for a 2007 Lincon Mark LT, which in reality, was an upscale F150,
And my 350 rides better than that did!
My wife equates riding in my F450 as the equivalent of driving in Africa. Not smooth. I hear "I should make you ride back here" about 10 times per trip (because she rides in the back with the baby). When I say "it's a truck, it's not supposed to be smooth," I suddenly am strickened with a severe headache...odd
Wife's 2014 GL350 diesel, up in Canuckland we have the AMG body kit and wheels optional, she wanted a hybrid since that's all the coffee talk ladies think, a diesel is a better compromise, hybrids are useless in the north and with lots of highways. Has averaged 9.2L/100km, or mid 25 US mpg since we took it home, that's total running average 40,000 miles since sept 2013. Not too shabby eh!!
Its a beautiful vehicle, although a G would be better, but I will never own another Euro car again. I love most of them, have owned a variety of Land Rover / Range Rover, Audi A8, Volvos, BMW X5, and two Mercedes E-Classes. Just too many problems to deal with as the vehicles aged, with far away dealerships and expensive parts and service. Since then, I feel that its very important to support the domestic car industry and I feel the domestics have greatly improved and the gap between the Germans and the Americans has really shrunk if not gone the other way. I'm proud to own a Lincoln, an F-150, a Super Duty, and a Harley.
