Every company has lemons, get over it. Its life. We know you have had issues, I see you post about it on every story.

I had a 2nd gen with the V6 and 186k miles it ran like a top and hadn’t started to rust yet, sold it back in 2018. They just worked which is why the few other people I knew that had them who also were not car people loved them.

I had a 97 Mountaineer with the 5.0 and it was a great truck. 2k for this is a steal as this gen is getting really rough nowadays. 

Oh yeah for sure. I'd love to get a real one, old Continental or something. Panther cars are close enough while being just modern enough haha. 

Go scoop it!! Cartier is so baller! lolol

Yeah, my car originally had rear air but the first owner swapped it for regular springs. Its nice to not have to worry about it since its one of the few failures these cars have.

I 100% recommend it. For cost of entry, ease and price of maintenance and being practical and comfortable you cant go wrong. There is alot of inventory which is nice but I assume will be a curse when it comes time to sell.

Yeah, once I learned about the HPP that was the only way to get one haha.

I daily drive a 1998 Grand Marquis LS and it is just the best. Big comfy seats, cant even feel the road and sturdy. City mpg isnt great, but my commute is 6 miles round trip in traffic so its fine. I recently took it on a 1600mi road trip over 3 days and averaged 25mpg and never felt tired in it, even after 12hrs of…

You must be fun at parties, when those existed.

The best Mazdaspeed model. Don't @ me. 

NP for a clean car that you never see anymore and would seem easy and cheap to keep on the road.

I have had this on a few past cars, and my current 1998 Grand Marquis and its the best. It comes so handy, I probably use it multiple times a week.

Dang, not a Ford fan I guess. lol.

It was pretty cool! I got in kinda late and got a hotel, and a pizza from Nonnos, which I guess is technically Moosic, but the next day I drove through Scranton near the Mall area. Glad I stopped in.

I took a roadtrip last week. Lexington, KY -> Niagara Falls -> Scranton, PA -> Washington D.C -> Lexington and it was super relaxing. Not alot of traffic, good foliage up north, cheap gas and super easy to stay safe while out of the car.

Explorer ST? Maybe not super interesting, but plenty quick with lots of room. I imagine $50k should be doable with some haggling.

I think it actually broke but could be wrong. I know it was a chain issue. I work in BMW parts but we have a VW service shop as well but I don’t deal with it much.

We had a customer with one of these just last week and the timing chain went at under 90k miles and she just dropped off the title and let us have it, lol.

The color combo kind of sucks, but otherwise that’s a good deal for a clean driver that wont have a whole lot of issues, the Corvette tax is real though when it comes to some parts.
