My family tends to be biased toward Ford since the company employed both of my grandfathers, and we can take advantage of their A Plan discounts. We've had a few clunkers over the years, but they're usually pretty good vehicles.

I'm thinking of going to the North American International Auto Show this weekend if I can find someone to do the driving in downtown Detroit.

my Detroit experience... mammallamadevil January 20 2009, 03:54:15 UTC

was mainly staying out in Romulus and driving in to Wayne State. I don't think Wayne State counts as "downtown". Do they have mass transit to the hall?

There is the People Mover, but all it does is take passengers on a loop around downtown. My big trouble is that I always get lost whenever I try driving in downtown Detroit, and it didn't help that my first time driving there had my mother sitting in the passenger seat, overreacting to everything.

parents and driving....I listened to both parents, found my own middle ground...life much better...

I'm the over-reactor...I'm afraid..

You have my sympathy on the marathon driving session. Pulled a 600 mile road run day back in September.
