My parents came to pick me up from work in our seven month old Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer Edition. On our way home we stopped to refuel, after refueling, we made our way towards the highway through a major intersection, it all happened so fast, and was so loud! A teenager who had just passed a police speed trap, smashed into our car at close to forty miles an hour, pushing us out of the way and proceeding to hit another car. After our car came to rest I immediately jumped out of the backseat to check on my parents, they were both okay, we all got out, and where shocked we were still alive. Civilians from the surrounding blocks came running because the bang was so loud. After all the necessary information was taken care of my father hoped right back into the driver’s seat of our severely damaged Explorer, and drove it the 5 miles home. Thanks Ford for saving my family’s lives! The police officer told us if we weren’t driving something big and sturdy like our Explorer, who knows what the outcome would have been! We have always been a Ford family, and hope to always remain one! Thanks again for your well built vehicles!
