Pros: Still thinking Cons: you name it, it sucked
This was my first car ever. Bought it used with supposidly 56,000 miles. Standard 5-speed. Sometimes when I turned it off it would continue running until eventually it stopped and wouldnt start again. Spark plug covers came off quite frequent causing loss of power. Right before I got rid of it the driver's side seat broke off its axis. Seat belts broke. If you closed the trunk the slightest bit too hard the gas shut off in case of in a accident would shut the fuel line off. Fuses blew often leading to conversations with police. I really cannot think of anything positive to say about this pile of junk. Steered me away from Ford for life.
