I had a Ford Escort for 2 years that I punished like a stepchild for ever day of those few years. That ugly little POS managed to outlast cars that are supposed to be 1000 times better like Civics and BMWs, even. It hauled. I had furniture strapped to it's roof. I drove it to Sacramento every weekend (a few hundred miles). Was it cool? Not really, but it was very cool for what it was capable of. It was an overachiever.
They're thinking about bringing it back as a hybrid of some kind. I'll check it out.
