I66 at rush hour? You should sell the car...move to Arlington and get a bus pass...

I blame Bill Blass...

My dad had 3 Lincolns each with a 460 V-8 (7.5L). They were quiet powerful and safe...except the one that was modified...can you imagine a car like that doing 140...no seat bolsters or velour interiors...but by the 80s we switched to Volvos...go figure
