They make great swamp and offroad cars too. Or mountain climbing. Hell, pretty much anything. But I've definitely tested the swamp. I sold my grand marquis to my brother, but if ever there was a car that I felt could take on anything, it was that one. I'll probably buy another someday. Perhaps a late 90's model.

You guys are making me want a Panther again. Anyone want to trade a p71 or Mercury interceptor for my Cadillac? Anyone? Also, is it better to turbo or super a vic, in the context of street use, and what would it take to do it at a fair price? I dream of shutting up locals like the guy who spit on the Grand Marquis I sold my brother and called it a POS while revving his 90's 'Stang.

I'm about to trade my fleetwood brougham for a 89 mercury grand marquis with a posi automatic trans and the 302 HO mustang engine swapped in. Buyer wants to build the caddy into a hit on the strip. I'll fill you all in on details if and when this deal happens.

Guys, I just saw the most amazing thing: A Crown Vic Police Interceptor with police decals cruising the UK: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=viKXObHdQLc That thing is bigger than their SUV's, and I find that hilarious.

Hey do you guys remember talking about the towing with a Vic? Well, let this put to rest any doubts about the ol' Panther. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9r5yAomvKfA

Holdbrooks posted:I made it back home with no issues, 5400 miles total in two weeks. I got 16mpg overall for the 1800 miles home, which I think is pretty good for towing 4000lbs and keeping up with the speed limits. I have to say that I am really impressed with the P71, best $3800 I have spent on a car. It's only the best Sedan... no, best car that the USA has ever produced, no big deal.

MonkeyNutZ posted:Today felt like a good day for exploring some local roads; the offroading club at the top of the mountain were slightly surprised to see anything with 2WD make it all the way up. I don't know what it is but panthers just handle themselves really well offroad.

Coredump posted:Than this should be the default answer. A v8 with all that off the line torque of a positive displacement blower in a boat like the Crown Vic? Sends shivers up my spine I tell you. Would you say it shivers your timbers?
