Article Abstract:
Ford Motor Co's 1993-1998 Mercury Villager models are front-drive minivans available in GS and LS trim and powered by 151-horsepower, 3.0-liter Nissan V-6 engines coupled to a four-speed automatic transmission. A four- wheel anti-lock braking system is standard in this generation, which boast less interior room compared to other competing minivans. These models lack many of the standard features found in competing minivans but they remain a good choice if buyers require more than a mid-sized station wagon but do not require the interior space provided in the larger minivans.

Article Abstract:
General Motors Corp's 1992-1999 Oldsmobile Eighty Eight models are front- drive, full-sized sedans which feature new aerodynamic styling. The base engine in these models provides sufficient power for strong takeoffs and safe passing, Fuel economy in tests averaged 17 mpg-21 mpg. The power steering on the base and LS models appears not to be able to furnish adequate feedback. The standard, softly-sprung suspension allows too much body roll, causing these cars to lean excessively in turns.

Article Abstract:
Ford Motor Co's 1997-1999 Escort/ZX2 models weigh roughly 120 pounds apiece more than their predecessors. Acceleration is merely adequate in this generation, although the automatic transmission feels smoother with the 110-horsepower, 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine and downshifts faster for passing and merging. Manual transmission Escorts feel livelier and also get better gas mileage than cars with automatic transmission. Visibility is generally good.
