That’s true to a certain extent, but no modern car today can come close to the seating comfort and soft riding abilities like the Town Cars of the 80’s.
Sure newish vehicles are smart as heck, and are somewhat more reliable than a Town Car, they pretty much have every feature you can think of, but that doesn’t mean anything if the car rides like crap and I can feel every tiny imperfection of a road surface, especially since just about every new sedan made in the last several years has low profile tires that ride horribly.
Also Town Cars had presence and style. The 80’s were nice cars, but the 70’s Lincoln Continentals were even better. The last of the giant limo like Lincoln’s ended in 79.

What's your point? The Town Car on review along with the 2 post generations that followed also could rack up over 200,000 miles trouble free. I had a 96 that still ran strong at 235,000 when I sold it, and now have a 2002 at 146,000 with only basic maintenance and a window motor in the last 2 years.

Got any proof to back up a blanket statement?
Especially when there are currently a number of "manufacturers" struggling to stay in business even before the pandemic state we are in now. Quality control is key, and lots of brands have nearly lost it.
