Hmmm... looking at some online pics you may be right. Same car, tho, GM’s mid-Seventies “Colonade” styling.

It’s all good ;)

My Crown Vic has a column shifter. No muss, no fuss.

So much This.

Um, no, at least if the keys are removed. There’s no way to leave my Crown Vic in neutral with the keys removed. One also cannot take it out of Park without putting one’s foot on the brake pedal. Pretty damn foolproof.

I’ve driven a ‘15 GC, and yep, it’s not even remotely intuitive.

Huh? Lessee... I’ve been driving for over 37 years and in every a/t vehicle I’ve driven Reverse has been right next to Park. Every. Single. One.

LOL I SHOULDN’T HAVE TO READ THE OWNER’S MANUAL TO DO SOMETHING A SIMPLE AS PUT THE GAWDDAMNED VEHICLE IN PARK. DUH.

Ford did just that with the ‘16 MKC when people got confused whether or not their vehicle was in park.

How about you’re wrong? Idiotic design and execution by engineers that have some psychotic need to reinvent the wheel. WTF was wrong with, you know, a lever or handle connected to the transmission with, say, a cable or rod of some kind? And while we’re at it why no put some kind of failsafe in it, you know, like maybe

A buddy of mine has a ‘15 GC as a company car and he told me he’s had issues with it going into park. Not good... not good at all.

“On the other hand, someone restoring this car might actually put better workmanship into it than the factory did”. Not like that would be difficult...

A grand for bodywork and paint??? On what planet???

1976/1977 Pontiac LeMans 4 door sedan.

I may not have a soul but I do have common sense. CP.

Fiats rust faster than toilet tissue dissolves...

Scrap value is approx. $90/ton, so... no, it ain’t even close to scrap price. CP, period. Because Fiat and rust.

Fiat + Rust = No Fucking Way. Scrap value = NP, otherwise no way, Jose.

First time I’ve seen it. Brain cleansed :)

Well, either you work for Jiffy Lube or you’re pretty naive and trusting. Oh, and don’t forget the old saying... statistics lie, and liars cite statistics.
