This cache is placed as part of the Central Maine Power run by the
Power Rangers. An ammo can just off the end of the trail to Colby
Pond. Contains a log, a pen and swag. There is a gate at the
beginning of the path. I walked down to place the cache and would
recommend that you get there the same way.
Ford Escort This was my first car. It wasn't flashy but it got good
gas mileage and got me where I needed to go. The stereo I put in
with my older brother's skills and financing was probably worth
more than the car. I rolled it over in a corn field one night and
that thing was so tough we pushed it back on its wheels and drove
off and it didn't have so much as a crack in the windows. The Ford
Escort is a compact car that was manufactured by the Ford Motor
Company. The North American Escort adopted both the badge and the
general design of a redesigned European model, and the name has
been applied to several different designs in North America since
its introduction as Ford's first successful world car. The Escort
was Ford's first front-wheel-drive car built in North America,
replacing the dated Ford Pinto subcompact car (1971-80) with a
modern front-wheel drive design popularized by the Volkswagen
Rabbit. It also effectively replaced the smaller Ford Fiesta which
was imported from Europe from 1978-80. Though mechanically
sophisticated, the Fiesta was too small, even for a Pinto
replacement. The Escort was one of Ford's most successful models in
the 1980s, earning a much better reputation than the Pinto, which
faced widely-publicized safety issues. In fact, the Escort was the
single best-selling car in its second year in the United States and
during most of that decade. Congrats to DSKG, S-Ray and Lexmano for
the FTF!
