Im 46 and have been a fan of fords since I owned a VN Commondore (no spelling error). By far the worst car I have ever owned. I will never buy a holden again. I then bought an ED Falcon and still think its the best car I have ever owned. I sold it to a good mate of mine and its still going strong. I now have my AUXR8ser111 and, whilst it given me some grief, its not a bad car. Go the Fords.

In opening this thread I was having visions of a 90 year old at one of the nursing homes I visit that likes playing the computer. Solitaire is his game of choice. The other week he was being shown how to use the internet by his 10 year old great grandchild.

You're not old!!
