I saw my old Coug yesterday on 74 West. The person driving it had temp tags, with blue and black graphics down the side. Still had my smoked side markers on it and the NECO stickers in the back passenger windows. The person driving it was an ass and tailgating everyone and going in and out of traffic at about 90 mph.

What can I say, I have time to post now :) I feel sorry for the kid that got my car. I unfortunately had one of the Cougars that were manufactured on a Friday before a holiday ;) Before it was gone, it was in the shop 29 times

Holy Hell, 29 times seriouslly? Yup mustve been made on one of those lucky fridays. But hey still gotta love it. Actually hows the Envoy treating you? My uncle works for GM and that was one of his company cars, the new style like yours, and I got to drive it, that thing had some .... balls! For real though it was awesome! And very nicely equipped.

I LOVE the Envoy!!!!
Yeah 29 times, I ended up winning a lawsuit with Ford for the "Warranty Act" in Ohio. I didn't file in time for the lemon law. :( But, inspite of all the problems. I still liked the car. The way it looked, handled and drove. I actually miss it.

Now I need to get a 2 inch suspension lift and bigger tires for the Envoy. Maybe a grill guard (small car deflector) and smoke the windows

Hey Shelly, I built the plant where they make the Envoy. Just to make you feel better, the first 500 to roll off the line failed in the front end crash test. The hood kept blowing straight through the windshield and into the crash dummies head. They had to redesign the hood brackets to fix the problem.

Just thought I would share that with ya ;)

Thanks Dale. I appreciate the um.............info ;) Mine is fine. I heard about all that stuff with them.

And it will be a slow going process to do anything with the Envoy. I have to save up the money. Maybe I will post step by steps of the transformation :)

I think they have more stuff than on the site so please call. He might get friends and family discounts but I'm not sure how that works out. Maybe 5% or 10% or something???
