Default So close, yet so far.

Very nearly finally bought my first Ford yesterday. With the pending birth of number 2 child, in 2 weeks, We figured we need something a little bit bigger then our KJ Verada wagon. First possible was a 2001 Volvo V70 but even though the price was right, we dropped that idea after a bit of research. Found a 2005 BA mk2 Futura wagon with power pedals, wife needs them, so thought we would have a look. Low Kays, tint, XR 17"s and a good price. Also looked to be an ex Ford exec vehicle, advertised as an ex demo. Just 1 small problem, the Verada. Talk about taking a hit on the resale! The damm thing has dropped more then $10,000 in 18 months, which hurts big time. So sadly I've had to walk away from the Falcon. May still end up in a Ford next year as I don't think my Charade is going to survive much longer, certainly can't carry 2 kids in it.
