Ordered a new Encore GX today.

Well, folks, I decided what my next new vehicle would be, and ordered it today, from the factory....anybody want to guess?

(I'll change the thread title if someone guesses)

Not even close. Besides, I never liked the current-generation ES.

I'll give you all a hint: Smaller than my current Lacrosse, more versatile, less-expensive, and generally better-equipped. And it's a 2021 version, not a 2020. That'll make it a little easier.

Nope, remember, I said NEW...the Grand Marquis is long out of production....it went out to pasture with the whole Mercury Division. Besides, it is also RWD...and remember, I said long ago I'd probably never own another RWD vehicle again.

Hyundai is a good guess, but no. However, me and my brother, later on, may be looking at some smaller new Hyundais for his girl friend. Partly because of the pandemic, and partly because of her work demands and busy job, she is behind her new-vehicle shopping.
