I drove the Escort GT turbo (120HP) and the Mustang GT today.  Both
machines were very peppy but the Mustang suspension was far more
precise than the Escort (at the price of a stiffer ride).  I drive
nearly 600 city miles each month and figure, at $1.00/gal, the Mustang
will cost me about $12/month more (using the sticker city mileage
ratings for comparison).  The inexpensive Escort AM/FM/Cas equipment
had Dolby but was apparently unable to accomodate Cr or Metal tapes.
The Mustang happened to have Ford's "premium" sound which was indeed
better than their "ordinary" sound but was not really better than my
$350 Clarion in my pickup.
