We are currently doing research and are pretty much convinced that the Toyota RAV4 is the best choice for a young girl, in my opinion. We will continue this story as we progress buying the replacement vehicle. Please visit this site again to see how this turns out.
This Ford Escape experience seems directly related to why I love the Mac and despise Windows computers. I work for a university and they have to hire a lot of computer support people because the Windows computers are like Ford and the Mac is like a Toyota. I am a contract worker so I should love Windows computers because I can increase my billing hours. I am always having to repair Windows but Mac issues are vastly insignificant in comparison. …
Within a span of one week the Escape was in for repair three times. Without making any comments to my daughter about how I felt about the Escape, I asked her how she felt about the car.

I tried to adjust one of the passenger air vents. There was a small knob that you could sort of rotate up or down to direct the vents. As soon as I pressed against the knob to roll, it fell apart. The side vents have a lever that…
Our family needed another car. My wife drove a Toyota Camry too and from work. My son and I shared a Toyota 4 Runner until he started work and went to a local college. It then became his car as work expanded and college got more intense. My daughter needed some wheels during her senior year in high school, 2010. She and I would share that car.
