Just got me one from a one owner with right at 58k miles. Few dings but for 4800 bucks it’s a steal. I was wanting a new car but the way the market is I couldn’t justify purchasing a brand new vehicle then God blessed me with this one!
Tires on it and it’s driving like a dream Mike! Car was sitting up awhile which is usually never good but the check engine light came on saying vent issue so I thought it was a loose gas cap. Turns out it’s hard to pump fuel. We scanned the car again and think the evap system on the fuel tank is clogged or dirty. I’m gonna take it off, tear it apart, and clean it all up when I get off the road and have a day off. That should solve the issue and be able to pump gas normally
Adam is a rare breed … he’s a great manager/boss … firm yet friendly … it’s quite impressive … the guys really seem to respond to it … guess cause they are all friends? Pretty cool… dude … who’s pool is that? Freaking Ray 😂
I have a 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis with 320,000 miles on it. Runs like a dream. Original motor, transmission. I have the oil changed every 3,000 miles without fail. Love my car!
Im a 17 year old kid. I'm looking to purchase a panther platform car for my first car. If cops, cab drivers, fancy chauffeurs, and my grandma who drove an old LTD back in the day can trust this platform, I think I can too. So many old people bought these things so they're everywhere! I just gotta convince my parents that these things are actually good cars.
I think that’s a great plan! You should have your parents watch this video. Shop around because there are lots of these vehicles out there and you wanna make sure you find one with fairly low mileage and well taken care of. If you have a mechanic that you trust it’s worth $50 or $100 to have it checked out thoroughly so don’t make a mistake and buy the wrong vehicle. You should know that these vehicles don’t get the best gas mileage, but they cruise like Cadillacs. They are just so smooth and have such torque and high end speed/performance. Good luck to you and let me know how things worked out.
Oh I am aware of the gas mileage. I know how expensive fuel is these days lol. Anything that’s full size, heavy, and V8-powered is bound to be a little thirsty for gas. But it’s at least better than a truck or an SUV. I’m not a fan of huge vehicles. A full-size sedan is about as big as I’ll go. I just feel like these cars “fit me.” I can’t explain it. I’ll definitely have my parents look into the purchase of one of these. One of the main driving factors for me is cost. Crown Vics. Grand Marquis, and Town Cars are relatively cheap. Safety is my mom’s biggest concern, but I’m not too worried about safety. It’s got airbags. My dad *did* tell me that he isn’t really keen on having me drive around grandma’s land yacht because he isn’t familiar with the brand’s design motifs. We’re a Honda family, so getting a Ford is for sure out of his comfort zone. But, I think the benefits of owning a panther-platform car outweigh the drawbacks. I plan on purchasing one of these things with my own money too. Gotta show them I’m responsible. My brother is tired of waiting for my mom to come pick us up from school so me having a personal means of transportation would definitely make things easier for my mom.
I’ve enjoyed cars like these my whole life and actually own one just like this one I use to like to change the wheels add stickers loud exhaust the normal cool stuff 😂 but this one now that I’m getting older I think I’ll keep it stock appearing just because it’s so nice I actually have a 05 deville that’s nice and clean but the mercury my opinion is a better car
Your probably right that does sound familiar I thought before Adam lost his humor and turned Ted Nugent level insane he was Jimmy Kimmels co-host on the Man show. And there could have been a quick cross over 😅
Nine out of ten squeaks on these vehicles is the hood latch as odd as that sounds. Lube the latch and the two rubber snubbers the hood sits on when closed and your squeaks will go away.
I like the numerous "in twenty years" references in this show. Like how he said he will show his kids the dvd. I wonder if Sonny and Natasha have watched this yet. Oh well it has been 19 years now since this show was made that's pretty wild.
Thanks for uploading this. I haven't seen it in years. Next year Adam should go back to his high school and see if Sandy is still there. So she can unalive herself! 😆
