Think about the name "Blackwood" and take a wild guess who that was marketed at......espcially with the heavy metalic paint and dark hue wood grain....Didnt it have 'dub's' on it too?

I have seen a few of them and they are ugly.

I bought a new 2006 Ford van for the family, and pieces started falling off in the interior after about 3 mos. The radio and DVD player went south at 6 months and had to be replaced. I had always had decent luck with fords, got 175K on my 91 explorer and 185k on my 96 f-150, but the finish on this thing was really poor.

When I had to get a new car last winter I did beaucoup research and ended up buying a V-6 Toyota RAV4. Payed a whole lot more in the end than I had planned to ($23k), even though I had them find a car out of state that only had the options I wanted and paid $200 to have it driven up.

When you close the door, it sounds like a car. Got 10k on it now, only had the oil changed, etc. My only issue with the car is that it doesn't wash itself. Wish it had a little more clearance to get into my hunting camp in 4WD...mebbe an adjustable hydraulic lift kit

The foreign ones like Honda/acura are standard/luxury models. Acura is honda luxury line, infiniti is nissan luxury line. Mercury started as fords luxury line. Not sure now. I agree, same cars with different names is stupid.
