I like driving mine but my wife hates it and only rides in it if she has to.

Mine won't drive mine.

I am thinking a Jeep for playing and running around town. Take it to the mountains.

Mine is a manual trans and when she got her Windstar she said she will never drive a manual shift again.

The biggest car my wife drive before driving my F150 was a Toyota Camry.

If there's a trailer on forget it.

Good afternoon, all.

My parents are car shopping and looking for a vehicle that sits higher than their town car and maybe a bit smaller.

Howdy South Dakota and Ryan!

Lincoln MK T or the MK X. I was pushing for the MK X when the wifey bought her Edge.

I almost got a stick. Just wouldn't be able to trust anyone but myself on a boat ramp, and the wife could never drive it, so, went with the auto. I know the boob bouncer comes standard on the SD....

The boob bouncer is a great standard feature on the SD Pat.
