Accidental Best Car

1995 Ford Escort LX 4dr Wagon
Old car was ding and needed a new one. Found a 95 Escort Wagon with 42000 miles for a good price and went home with a family wagon. That was 20 years ago and I am still driving the car every day with 323000 original miles on it. This car has been from the mountains to the desert on dirt and snow covered roads and numerous family vacations. Not planing on retiring the car anytime soon as … it still drives great
A Great Compact Car

1995 Ford Escort LX 4dr Wagon
I bought the car with 62k and it now has 122k. I've owned it for 7 years. I change the oil and filter every 4,000 miles. Other than normal maintenance items, I've replaced the timing belt, cooling fan, gas tank filler pipe, alternator, battery and front brake pads. The gas mileage is between 35-39 mpg. By far, this is the most economical and dependable car I've ever owned! I'm 63 years … old and will never part with it!
A superior wagon for an economy car.

1995 Ford Escort LX 4dr Wagon
A smart choice.Plenty of room in the back for transporting furniture(we easily fit a 5'x40"x20" wardrobe in the back with the seats folded down).Thats alot of space for a small car.Visibility is excellent, easy to park in small spaces,and in five years,have only had it in the shop 3 times for minor repairs.The a/c cranks and still gives great gas mileage.It is very comfortable to drive … and the front driver seat has great lower back support,a comfort for long rides.We've transported rugs,mattresses,plywood and many other items you would normally need a pickup for.No regrets with this car.
A Great Car

1995 Ford Escort LX 4dr Sedan
I've had this car for 5 years. I've
replaced the battery, the timing belt,
the radiator (only because I never
flushed it), the tires, and the plugs.
Otherwise, this has been an outstanding
vehicle to own and operate. I highly
recommend this for a college student or
teen's first car.
