- Last of the big wagons, since Ford dropped the Crown Vic wagon (and
- ruined the sedan too the f***ers). Anyway, these are great cars,
- if you can get one that has been put together properly. The quality
- of the upholstery, exterior trim and gaskets (esp. the rear window
- seal) don't seem very good -- yet. Don't know how they handle in
- snow, as I don't own one yet. I may buy next year, after they have
- worked some of the assembly bugs out.
-
- BTW, the Custom Cruiser is dead. Production stopped recently due
- to lack of sales.
