Review
Great vehicle for family of two teens. Gas mileage city only 18. But highway & city avg. 23. Went to Missouri from Wisc. crusing mostly 85/90 and got 28 mpg. This car loves to go. At 70 ours kicks in again for passing. Have only had regular service done, runs great. Need a CD player. Has great speaker sound. Cup holders in the way of heat/ac controls. Even though car is so smooth a cup could sit on the armrest. Have had car in major snowstorms & handles well. Our 16 yr. old learned in this car. Back seat leg room is for anyone & I prefer the back seat for the comfort. Side windows are bellowed out, great for sky viewing for kids at night.

We have had our Towncar for 3 years and it will be my retirement car. My wife and I really like the car with a few exceptions. We feel a lux. car like the Lincoln should have a softer leather. Ours has very hard leather which makes it somewhat uncomfortable on trips, slippery, stiff, etc.. My biggest objection with the car is the mushy ride and the way the car floats on corners. I had a Thunderbird before with 258K miles and I loved the handling package, made you feel like you had control of the car, not vice versa. I have a pickup that I drive 35000 mile a year and I feel safer with the handling than the Lincoln. Also had a bunch of intermittent electrical issues. But, still love the car.

This car became the company plane
after 9/11. 95% 0f the 60,000 miles
driven were high speed highway miles
and the car performed perfectly. Most
trips were 8 to 14 hrs. duration and
the car was very comfortable and the
fuel mileage was exceptional. This car
was selected after renting various
makes and models for business trips to
determine their comfort and
suitability for long business trips.
The Town Car beat all the others.
We purchased one and it proved the
value of our selection process, it was
every bit as good as we expected.

This is my 3rd TC, and I drove last 2
('84 & '92) over 150,000 miles. I get
gas mileage of 27-28MPG on highway
trips which is great, but I miss the
power that get from my '95 Crown Vic
w/performance and handling package
(3.27 rear end and dual exhaust on same
4.6 engine-- that I am still driving
with 184,000 miles on orig engine and
trans!) I find the steering a bit numb
on the highway, with car wandering a
bit on Michelin Symmetry radials, and I
preferred the ride on my '92 TC and
my '95 Crown Vic. Local Dealerships
have been great fixing problems, and it
is a nice looking car, but I don't
think I'll drive it as long as my other
2, or the Ford.

First time owner of this brand, but
probably will be a loyal customer in
future years. Car is most comfortable
to ride and or drive. Nice features
like the moving pedal system, traction
control, very responsive engine and
superb climate control system. Fuel
economy is 23 to 26 MPG which I
consider exceptional for a car of this
size and weight.

Great road car, feel safe, not cramped,
comfortable, easy to get in and out of,
feel rested when you arrive. Not as
much fun as our ninja motorcycle but
great transotation in or out of town.

I would be amiss if I didn't say I
have a love affair with the big Lincoln
for over 35 yrs. This is my 1st one.
I am not dis
appointed in the least. The ride is
close to Heaven; The handling for a car
this size is unthinkable; The little 4.6
liter engine is remarkablly fun too to
punch it when necessry. The room is
more than adequate. The service is
free during the entire time of you
warranty.
Tis an awesome vehicle and just when
you think you have found a flaw, you
get a solid 20 mpg in the city. The
one trip I did take up to the Panhandle
of out State of Tx. you can get over
25mpg if you 'keep you foot out of it'

We purchased our 2001 low mileage Ford-Certified Town Car Executive this Februarythe first of two Lincolns (a V8 LS is our second Lincoln purchase). We added a six pack CD changer. My wife and I dont have to scream to hear each other (as we did in our Club Wagon)and since we are both lifetime WW members, we could sit four of us abreast in the frontbut choose not. We ensured a safe purchase by using CarFax to research the vehicle history. This car just makes traveling a real pleasurethe only thing missing is aroma therapy candles (on second thought, leave them out). We are experiencing 18.8 mpg city and 24-25 mpg highway. This is THE car for long drives.
