cold weather and my car

A couple weeks ago our car's transmission broke and we have to drive 30 to 35 mph. It's slow and stupid but we're never late for some reason. Our car is old and we might get a new one. I hope we get a new one. Ours is a Mercury. They're teamed with Ford. I HATE FORDS! Do you know what Ford stands for?
