My very first car, very dependable, long trips on it, great fuel economy, comfort was enough

"Enough" really encapsulates it.

Well, now that they're 30 years old, here's my 30 year review. To this very day they're indestructible. They can't be killed by anything other than a crash. It makes no sense for such a cheap car to be so durable. They're still very cheap to buy and fix. And the fuel economy still beats most current cars. The only downside is a lack of crash safety. I give it a 9/10

I owned a 90L+....drove it for five years, and loved the fuel economy, and handling. No major issues at all!...but I would not own one nowadays--too many crazy drivers, driving their huge trucks and SUVs...if one of those hit you in a Festiva--you would splatter like a bug!...BTW, I put a wider, better handling set of tires on my Festiva, and it made for better handling.

@@curbozerboomer1773 It's getting sketchy, yes. People have been getting more aggressive recently, and the car isn't getting any faster or younger. Also a few months after I typed that comment my festiva got caught in flood waters, but I managed to fix it up again. It's still reliable somehow. This thing is a cockroach.

I love how you valued it 9/10 as in safety is worth 1 point or less ahahha

I LOVED my 1991 Festiva L. It was an amazing car. I had it for 10 years and just replaced the brakes and the battery. I only had to put gas in it once per month. The side graphics were a joke. I got mine on sale for $6995 of which Ford charged me $500 for the 'waves' graphic. It did add to the look of the car but at the time I had no money so $500 was a lot. The lack of power steering definitely gave me a good work out. I remember driving up to Whistler and when going up the hill at Furry Creek, I would have to put it into first gear in order to get to the top of the hill. What a great flash back memory. I used to enjoy watching the car reviews by these two guys. Thank you.

I cant believe they put the pinstripe over the freaking Festiva emblem instead of under..

I believe those stripes would have been put on at the dealer, so the badges would have already been on the car. Still hilariously bad though

Festiva...the best car I never owned. Bring'em back with a passenger side rear view mirror, manual shoulder harnesses, and a hitch to pull a light utility trailer.
