  • So, 2005 Ford Escape is coming home today

    :rolleyes: <--- me

    Currently I've had an 03 C230K benz for my bro.

    Well, he turns it in this December and he wants something else.

    So, this is what he is getting:

    My biggest problem with it:
    The 2.3L I4 engine, standard on XLS and XLT, delivers a full 153 hp and 152 lb.-ft. of torque.

    I forget if he got the XLS or XLT. I think it is the XLT

    I met with the salesman this morning and tortured the sh*t out of him. I made him really work for his money ( remember where I work ;) ) because I'm pretty familiar with all the little scams etc.

    I found the VIN # was iffy on the paperowrk, date was wrong, they offered to "cover" the last 2 payments on the benz.

    Well, I made them rewrite the paperwork with everything correct :D

    It is silver

    Sigh, oh well. It is his choice

    My sister has the 2004 Mazda Tribute (same thing) Hers is the 6cyl version though. It's not that bad (I've driven it many times) and she likes it so...meh.

      why would you go from a benz to a escape? Makes about as much sense as the guy in my old complex who traded his 01 escalade for a 04 jeep liberty

          Um, he is paying MORE a month for the escape.

          The benz was DIRT cheap!

                  James, people just don't understand the SEXINESS that is NEON until they drive one (and no, not an ATX rental car, either!)

                  You and I are on the same page bruddah! :D

                          38 inch super swampers with 8 inch lift? I guess 153 horsepower will turn a 38 inch tire.
