Recently re-Aligned, still drifts 850 1993

Hi,
I recently had the front end re-aligned. The car still drifts, though not as much as it did before the re-alignment. I'm not sure that i can blame the drifting on the alignment on the road's crown or on the alignment. I took my wife's gas-guzzling Ford Explorer, which has a much stiffer suspension, for a drive last night to compare the way it handles the crown in the road. It, too, drifts, but not nearly as much. Do different vehicles handle the road's crown differently? Is the 850 especially sensitive to the crown? I'm debating whether to take the car back to the mechanic to re-assess the alignment, but i don't want to do that until i can rule-out road conditions.
thanks.
-andrew
