Going from an SUV to a car

I am a Ford girl until the day I die. I’ve only owned Cougars, Thunderbirds and Contours and my parents only drive a Taurus. The only reason my daily-driver is a Celica now, is because it’s my husband’s (he bought it before we met) and my beloved Cougar with 170,000 miles died this summer. We have a 2009 Escape and it’s the new love of my life. V6, 4WD, leather, sunroof, Sirius, SYNC package, everything. It handles much more car-like than I originally thought it would and it’s a monster in the snow and ice in the NY. The Edge is beautiful as well, but we got the Escape fully loaded for what the base model of the Edge would cost.

Amazingly when I got my Edge two years ago, it was cheaper than a plain ol Escape. In my Edge? Vista sunroof, chrome-looking rims, radio on the steering wheel, Sirius ready, rear sensors. THIS is why I don't wana give it up

??? If you mean radio Controls on the steering wheel, I believe that it's a industry standard to have those now so it shouldnt be hard to find another car with that option. Unless you're looking for a cheap bare bones model whatever of course.

Seriously? That's the best news I've heard all day! I am slightly ADD and can't listen to a whole song. I'm constantly channel surfing. Awesome!
