Here’s a proper surveillance van...

Sure.

Get one while you can, I guess, and see if some aftermarket company can put a vista roof on it for the full retro effect.

I vote a cautious NP, but between the torn headliner in the back, the missing dash panels, possible airbag deployment, and that weird passenger seat issue (overheated seat heater?), I might change that to “very” cautious NP. I looked at the dealer’s website and location too in a search for the VIN, and see that…

Just GMTA.

Fake news!  I see the spin you’re putting on this story.

Nope, not really. It was hands down best car I’ve ever owned. It NEVER left me stranded the whole time I owned it in fact. The only things not working when I sold it was the A/C and it would occasionally go into limp mode sometimes. All the electrical stuff still worked. The paint was still shiny, no rips or…

Like I said, show some proof. Yes, the F150 (the only Ford) shows up in the middle of the pack as far as stolen cars/trucks go, but that’s only because there are more F150s sold than any other vehicle, and I don’t know of all of those have the keypad or not.

I bought the car new in 2001 for a medical/bank courier job and for most of it’s early life, I was doing 400 miles/day, or 100K miles/year. I credit TDI Club and it’s members as most of the reason my Golf made it to 445K miles before I sold it to another member almost two years ago. You can still find my posts and my…

Awhile back I was driving an obscene number of miles per day for work, and was changing the oil about once a month in my ‘01 Golf TDI. This is the extractor I was using at the time. Just clip on the battery leads, insert the tube, and hit the switch. Easy-peasy, and since the filter was mounted on…

The oil in my Mk4 Golf TDI was always black as coal even right after an oil change if I drove it any distance at all. And yes, I used a really nice extractor and would even vacuum the old oil out of the filter housing. Just the nature of diesels. Speaking of which, kudos to VW for putting the oil filter…

Now you’re just being silly. Please show me the stats on this. Please also explain how someone would know that I stashed a key inside of the car, and then how they would know where the key was stashed. For that to work, it would have to be in “inside job” (friend, relative, etc. who already knew I stashed a key) which…

Ford hides the code in one or two places on the car, but without knowing the year and what kind of Ford you have, I couldn’t say where it is on yours. On mine, it’s either a sticker on a control module inside the driver’s side front door, or maybe on a sticker on the left hinge of the trunk lid. What’s nice is that…

Locks are useless in convertibles anyway. I would never lock mine when I owned one, I don’t care what kind of neighborhood I was parking in. The damage a pocketknife would do to my top so the thief can reach in and unlock the door, is far more $$$ than anything I would keep in the car.

This isn’t bad either. Ford has had these forever too. It’s nice to know that you can never be locked out of your car (as long as you know the code). I keep a spare key stashed in the car and don’t even use my fob half the time.

Not even close, George. This is the rear of a 2001 Chrysler Town and Country minivan.  Plymouths (last year for the brand) were identical.

I think that’s a Buick Cascada (based on a Holden).

I hope they retire the Truman. One nuclear tipped missile and it’s history.  Besides, I already have plans for it when I buy it a auction. Ironically, a Navy Corvette won’t carry this many Corvettes.

Looks more like a Kodak Fotomat booth with wheels to me.

I don’t know, but when I was looking for pictures, I saw the setup on a ‘57, ‘58 and ‘59 Ford wagons.  I *think* it was called the “Sky-Vue” camper or something like that.
