My wife needs a new car and I need help

i'd keep an eye out for an escort wagon, high 30s on the highways, cheap, boxy, easy to work on, and you will have a littlw extra space to store stuff in.

I'd like to sell my Mazda 626... Car runs good but I want a Festy lol. Gas milage is good, in the 30's but if I could get back into the 40's again for daily driving it would save me a lot of money. Been meaning to post it but I haven't had a chance yet.

1: she likes older boxy style cars especially hatchbacks ... ... ... she insists in a 4 door... ... ... Older cars with character.

Are you sure we aren't married to the same woman somehow? Lol. We are on a similar search (she already has a festiva but we need a 4 door for getting little baby girl in and out of her carseat easier). She has already informed me that there is no WAY she will drive an egg lol. So anyway, here's our list in somewhat order of what we're considering right now.

1. '91-'96 Escort wagon. Practical and fairly reliable. Also available pretty cheap on CL all day long

2. mid '90s Corolla wagon. Hard to find but tough as nails.

3. Taurus wagon through '95.

4. Cavalier or celebrity wagon

5. Rio5. Newer, more expensive.

6. Tracker or Sidekick 4 door.

7. Escape. Would be nice, but rarely are any for sale in our price range.

8. Any other wagons pretty much except the jellybean ('96-'99) Taurus wagons.

^ yea I was thinking of a u.s. 1st gen escort as long as u can convince her that we can make it look cool ha ha. A motor swap could be pretty similar to a festy rite?

[crazyrog17]

I'm surprised nobody has suggested a protege or escort gt yet. B series engines with 4 doors
