    My mom saw one of those on the lot at the dealer in Northern California where she bought hers, and it was on sale, but she didn't want a pink car. Why did your uncle buy a pink car? Good deal?

    Im pretty sure it was for his wife but she didn’t like driving it, so it ended up being his DD. My dad gave him so much grief for that thing :rofl:

    Here is a picture of my mom's 1985 Escort, taken by one of my parents in the driveway of their home in Milpitas, California; I believe that the picture was taken in 1988-1990. My mom's car was a stick shift, but DID NOT have A/C. She had never owned a car with A/C before and didn't think she'd need A/C in NorCal, so she bought a car without A/C to save money, and quickly ended up regretting it. She did have the car for five years though, and sold it when my dad got transferred to Pennsylvania...

    I've seen a lot of good looking vintage color schemes. This may be my favorite:

    So is it a Canadian-spec, or did he buy it stateside and bring it into Canada?

    I'm sure it's Canadian. They've been delivering them to Canada on the same crappy schedule as the US.

    I'm sure it does. That is one of the build options. They definitely need one, even inside a hanger.

    That’s awesome! We were in Florida at the time my uncle had the pink one, and he was a larger fella, so A/C was pretty much a requirement. Lol
    I wish I had some photos of that car, but all of the old photos my parents had including my childhood photos were lost when my mom quit paying for the storage unit they were all in :rolleyes:

    The actual Broncos (not the Bronco Sports) look cool, but my friend who is a lifelong Ford guy thinks that the quality sucks; I've sat in a few of them, and I would probably buy one if I hit the lottery. I would love to get a base model or Heritage Edition 2-door and put a high-powered aftermarket stereo. If I don't like it, I could probably sell it for more than I paid for it. Right now, my dream truck is a Ram TRX.
