If you don't like it, please give me some suggestions or comments? What else could I add to it?

If you do like it, anyone want to linkshare with it?

Most people couldn't "linkshare" with it, because you've got an adult link in it (Adult Friend Finder).

Not only that, your issue is moreso with the dealer and Ford than it is with the car. While a tranny shouldn't go at 40,000 clicks, there's no reason it shouldn't be covered unless there's a clause in your warranty that says it shouldn't be.

Good idea, I will remove that.

I looked at my list of revshares, and I grabbed some from my list (I have a few other adult sites). I didn't filter them - I just wanted to finish the site really fast.

The car was 13 months over the warrenty. My issue is that I told them there is something sounding funny, when it was under warrenty. I can't spell

I really like the design. The colors are strong and warm, the site is laid out well and it flows well. It works for me. I think you did an excellent job.

that's my two cents on the design. I didn't read enough to comment on the issus you had with your Lincoln. I've always bought Chevy's.

Sorry I couldn't be more help. Enjoy.

Where did you get this report from?

I use the HTML Validator, but it doesnt give me those kind of detailed results.

...*sigh*... don't pay any attention to the "W3C Validator" as it clearly doesn't catch / show all of your errors -- use HTML Tidy.

I think it looks good, but it is a little jumbled up. Maybe you can spread things out a little more for readability?

I think the site is well laid out. The highlighted words are a little odd looking to me, but otherwise get the point across. I think the following quote has a double negative in there somewhere, and the word should be its, not it's, but I'm the last person to be giving advise on writing.

Quote:
I am not saying "Lincolns are lemons", nor am I not saying "Witt Lincoln Mercury located at 728 N. Escondido Blvd couldn't care less about it's customers or quality of repair service". I am simply saying "Never buy a Lincoln".
This site would definitely make me change my mind.

Green is a very difficult color to master in a website but I like your color theme. However, the green background links on the main content area of the front page (the white background) don't look at all like links, and I don't like the way they look in general either.

What are those items at the very bottom of the page, why some of them are links and some not? Why can't the links be underlined so the user would know which are links and which are just texts? Or, have them all work as links. Consider removing the Admin Login from the front page, that doesn't look too good.

The heading of your copy is not bad but it could be better, maybe something like "I bought a Lincoln, have you done the same mistake?". You should perhaps consider replacing the red "Fact" boxes as normal bullets and make the list as a list (using the ul and li tags).

I really liked the color theme, green and orange go so well together. Links from the main area (the one with white background) are somewhat confusing, it's hard to guess that they are links and not just highlighted text. This may be however Ok, as they link outside of your site anyway. I would still remove the highlightening (replace them by regular looking links, but in green or black font) because it would make that area cleaner and more business-like. Why do you need to have an Admin Login in the menu? It is not something your visitors can use. I agree with jv16 that you should remove it.

I really like the site: nice layout, design, color scheme. . .

The only thing I don't like is the background color on the regular links on the main page; the off green/brown background color.

Other than that, I think it's a very nice web site.
