I’m too lazy to come up with a full limerick, but !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! located on (you guessed it) Nantucket. It’s been garage kept its whole life and has not even 24k on the odometer. Will you part with 3 mortgage payments to own a pristine example of a shitty car?

A 23000 mile first gen Escort?

A first year car too??

How? Just.. I can’t.. How?

I don’t think the one at the Ford Museum is that clean. NP!

Cars don’t put on much miles when they live on an island. There’s only so far you can drive in one day. I live on Martha’s Vineyard, which is much bigger than Nantucket and I still barely do 2k per year.

Do they not salt the roads on MVY/ACK? How is that wagon not a rotmobile?

Too bad it’s not a 4 sp manual. Still nice price (would rather have a Civic for that much).

Also, I’ll give the limerick a shot:

There once was an Escort from Nantucket,

That cost three fiddy to “phucket”,

The dude abides,

She takes him inside,

But to his surprise she tucks it!

I should have known something was up when I saw 2.5 Mortgage payments. That’s either a really huge house or a fairly pricey place to live.

Still, that’s a very NP.

LendingTree says the national average for mortgage payments is $1,061.

And yes, pricey is correct.

Being Nantucket, that car probably belongs to someone’s summer home. It’s probably been locked up in a garage all winter every winter ever since it rolled off the lot.

just for the sake of having the only clean 1G Escort in existence?
