I still drive one. Very comfortable ride. Decent fuel mileage. Cheap to fix and maintain. Doesn't need much fixing in general, very reliable, even as a now 18 year old car.
I never drove the Lincoln and a buddy of mine had a Crown Vic.
I fucking loved that car.
Drove it on the return leg of a road trip to pick up another car. It felt like riding on air. Looked down at the speedometer on the freeway and found I was going 90 MPH.
I still have my parents' 1984 Crown Victoria. 53,000 miles. I did some upgrading last summer, new gas tank, heater core, a few gaskets and seals, etc. I'll probably sell it in the spring. I don't drive it much, and it's taking up space.
It's a windowless van usually used for construction. They come with two bucket seats, no amenities like air conditioning or trim packages and are bare metal in the back to haul cargo.
They're worth a lot of money now. In fact a lot of these larger format cars are getting to be very valuable. Modern cars just don't have the interior space and the ride and they're full of other unnecessary crap.

The jew cries out in pain not being able to track everything.
This right here is one big reason I might hang on to it for a while. Big Brother can't be checking in on me.
