Alot of people didn't like the ICP at first because they were too lazy to read the owner's manual or use common sense. They kept getting the audio buttons mixed up with the EATC HVAC buttons. The latter has buttons colored a different hue to visually distinguish them, still didn't help. The simpler ICP unit they used for the new Escort/Tracer was much easier to use. Still cant figure out why they didn't use it for the new Contour/Mystique/Cougar. I hate those damn Chiclet buttons on the corporate Ford Electronics single DIN head unit.
There was nothing new about the Aerostar for 1996. It got a new transmission though for the 4wd models it was the first 5 speed automatic in a minivan. Killed it in 1997.
The Cobra looks really sweet.
Ford was ahead of it's time with the integration of audio & HVAC. About a decade later every car on the market was made that way.

Must have been embarrassing to be selling a pushrod v6 making 200 hp at the same time you were trying to sell a V8 with only 215 lol
