those are both horrible cars. just because your car is a dd doesnt mean it has to be dumb and slow.

well, it has to be under $900. and so far those 2 were the best condition I found. I dont really need anything fast, got into enough trouble with my 7's. just looking for comfort and reliability. then in the near future after saving up I'll get another 7.

They are both fords..



But anyways.. I think a sable is the same as a tempo.. anyways.. the probes are nice cars.. I don;t think they are too problematic..

sable = taurus.



given both cars are of similar states of repair, I would have to say the probe.. Just be CERTAIN that the headlights popup and work and all..
