just got back from a weekend visiting my son and his family in
Tennessee. Took the wife's, 2009 Honda CRV and it did the job
flawlessly. I would have liked to taken the '95 town car because the
ride and comfort is unsurpassed compared to the Honda, though the
mileage *would have been about 5 mpg less. But the main reason i
wanted to take the Lincoln was because of it's age, mileage means
nothing to it. But the wife wanted to take the Honda, so .... i just
hate to rack miles up on something that might make a difference on
trade in. BUT! We bought the car to drive and not to look at besides,
being a small SUV it sits higher and it's easier for her to get in and
out of, unlike a low slung car. *Unless gas shoots up over $4.00 buck$
a gallon, next time the Lincoln will roll.
The Honda is nice, but the Lincoln rules. *Man, I love that car!
I tried to talk my wife into a CRV or a RAV4, but she wanted something
bigger. So she got the Highlander. I think either the CRV or RAV4
would be great cars for a wife.
