LOL! I've never been a Volvo or Foreign girl. I believe in keeping it here in the states and giving our citizens jobs as much as possible. Whether the car is stiff handling or not. The hybrid part I agree with you and that we all have are own p preferences! Thanks for commenting and telling us yours. Nah, a car debate is great for traffic Carla so keep it up! LOL!

I have driven so many different types of cars during my brief stint as a dealer to dealer transfer driver and I guess I'm just biased against many different makes (American autos just happen to be my least favorite). I prefer stiff handling and to be able to feel the road; Japanese and American cars just dont offer that. I held only to my 20 something year old Volvo for as long as I could due to the superb handling. It would be nice if more auto makers got on board with the hybrid though. Hey Steve,

Handling... check Reliability... check Safety... check Our Ford is fine in all three of those categories. As I said, it isn't perfect, but it works just fine for us, and costs a lot less that a German car ~ and who says German cars are reliable??? my friend had an Audi that he swore his mechanic drove more than he did... :) ~ Steve, the trade show guru <abbr><em>trade show gurus last blog post..<a href="http://www.trade-show-guru.com/2009/02/trade-show-giveaway-pens/" rel="nofollow">Do Trade Show Giveaway Pens Work?</a></abbr></em> Hey Carla,
not to be argumentative, but regarding our Ford Escape…

Handling… check
Reliability… check
Safety… check

Our Ford is fine in all three of those categories. As I said, it isn’t perfect, but it works just fine for us, and costs a lot less that a German car ~ and who says German cars are reliable??? my friend had an Audi that he swore his mechanic drove more than he did… :)

Handling, reliability and safety means a lot to me and American cars isn’t there. Also, I would never buy an SUV (feels like I'm driving a bus).

We got it before the Hybrid was available. I'd be interested in the Hybrid (except we don't need a new car now) but I'd have to see how much more it costs than the regular Escape. I will say this about the Ford... it rocks! It isn't perfect, but it's great for us with two kids and on the go. ~ Steve, the trade show guru (Go Ford!) PS. Soy-based foam seats? Cool. I guess you can eat your seats if you get lost in the desert. :) <abbr><em>trade show gurus last blog post..<a href="http://www.trade-show-guru.com/2009/02/trade-show-giveaway-pens/" rel="nofollow">Do Trade Show Giveaway Pens Work?</a></abbr></em> hi Sommer,
