General Comments:

The car has plenty of room and comfort.

I can walk away from most accidents.

The style does need to be updated. I am not an old geezer but I do see a lot more old people than younger people driving them. Most 20 year olds can't afford to buy the car or the gas for a big car. I usually see them driving a Toyota Corolla or a Honda Civic. These cars are cheap and you throw them away after a couple of years.

I tried a new Chevy Impala. I like the look of it but when I drove it on the highway, it sounded as though one of the windows was cracked open. Too noisy on the inside.

Faults:

Nothing but routine repairs and maintenance.

I bought this car when I returned home from military service in 1992. It has been a durable, reliable car. The fuel injected V6 is reliable and economical. The body and interior have held up great.

This is a mid size car with the comfort and ride of a much larger car. This has all the bells and whistles.

I recently slid on the ice trying to avoid a deer and impacted a guard rail at 20 mph. The damage to the car was minimal. I was able to repair it myself.

These are among the best built Ford products. True to their advertising that "Quality is Job One". This has been such a good car. I cannot stress it enough.

We have recently purchased a 1985 LTD Wagon that I am restoring. If you are looking for a vehicle you can trust you cannot go wrong with a midsize RWD Ford product.

I just have one question: Have YOU driven a Ford Lately?

Faults:

Intake manifold coolant tubes started leaking. Was replaced with salvage yard unit.

General Comments:

Still a good looking car that has it's original paint. The woodgrain sides are in good shape. Just a little rust on the door bottoms.

Faults:

The transmission was rebuilt at 124,000 miles.

My exhaust system, including catalytic converter has been replaced.

My starter was replaced twice.

My alternator and radiator have also been replaced.

Most recently, the car was involved in an accident. It sustained front-end damage, but still runs and drives perfectly.

General Comments:

This car is incredibly durable and rugged.

It just doesn't know when to quit.

It is the best used car I ever bought for $1,800.

Good gas mileage on long trips--22 mpg.

Faults:

Water Pump. (I replaced myself). A/C compressor. Hideaway lights vacuum belly. Carburetor.

I got this car from my Dad in 1995. He ordered it from Ford in 78. When he gave it to me it had 68,890 miles on it and I've put a few on since then. I recently bought another car for my wife, inherited her Escort Wagon for work, and was going to sell it. But I can't. Even though I think the carburetor is junk, it is big, powerful, and so comfortable. It is a real pleasure to drive. I can't say enough about the looks of this thing. It's 19' long, black and trimmed with chrome. It's an example of 1970's excess. I loved it as a kid and I still love it now.
