April and Jalopniks aren't wrong. In 2018, I bought a 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis LS, fully optioned with 70K miles from an elderly couple in near mint condition for $4,000 cash. Six years later and now with 140K miles, it is hands down better than any other commuter car I've ever bought in my 30+ years of driving. My work provides me a 2018 Toyota Camry LE with 35K miles on it to drive for business. At the end of the day, I can't wait to trash the Camry and get back in the Mercury, the Mercury is so much better. The seats are just so plush and soft for that "drive the living room sofa" feel while the Camry has the "drive the concrete park bench" feel. And the V8 in the Mercury is so smooth that I often don't even know it is running, while the Camry's 4-cylinder is harsh at idle and while it revs up like a hamster on a wheel.
I bought a 97 Crown Victoria LX exactly one year ago, I agree 100% with what you are saying! I know the 97 Crown Vic has different steering and suspension to a 2004, but still... the ride and comfort is just amazing. I've had Volvos for the past 15 years, and they decent cars, but they don't compare to the ride and comfort of the panther platform.
I guess it's worth pointing out how much fuel the Mercury uses compared to the Camry. I know it doesn't matter if your commute is short, but with a longer commute the cost of fuel could be significant.
@@richarda3659 my commute is 50 miles one way. The cost of fuel is meaningless as I paid $4K for the car. I don't have a car payment (no loan and interest) and registration and insurance is quite substantially less. The 10 mpg difference in fuel becomes insignificant in cost compared to an overall more costly newer car.
In late 1984 my parents bought a 1985 Buick LeSabre Collector's Edition. That Buick was extremely comfortable the seats were very pillow-like and the suspension was very cushy with that combination made for one very relaxing and comfortable ride .
I had a 1980 MB 300SD. $600 car that leaked fluids and looked almost abandoned, but it rode and drove like a big old S class. The cruise control even worked! Used it as my daily driver for years and eventually sold it for $1000. I can still see the oil stain in front of my old house on google maps.
Rented a Sixth Generation early 2000's Buick Century and drove it 16 hours round trip and it was almost the most comfortable car only beat by a Volvo S80 that was THE most comfortable car I've ever driven. I put a conversion van in another class and my 1985 Gladiator Coversion Van was the best doing a cross country and back trip of about 10k miles. As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
The Citroen DS is a magic carpet ride. I lived in Malawi (central east Africa) back in the mid 60's as a kid. Got lifts quite a few times in the DS Safari model from school to home on very sketchy roads. Without a doubt the best riding car ever.
Yes I had a 1996 suburban, 240k when I sold, and I never had any problems with it ever. The only thing I ever replaced was break pads and oil changes. Seriously, nothing else ever Now, driving an O4 yukon, I've also had no trouble with it
They were nice. But 99 to (I think) 2006 in the full-sized pickups/SUVs were the best. Impossible to find a seat cover for them because of the seatbelt integration, they were incredibly comfortable.
I bought a roadmaster estate a couple years ago based largely on your recommendation and that is by far the most comfortable car I’ve ever been in or driven.
Love my '05 LS430! 193,000 miles and still going strong. The Car Care Nut on UA-cam has an '01 with over 630,000 miles on it and he has restored it to like-new condition. I've also owned an LS460 and hated it in comparison. The build quality went down with the 460. The late LS400's and the LS430 were the pinnacle of Lexus craftsmanship.
Big surprise for me was my 2003 cloth Honda Accord seats were really nice also my 1981 Caprice Classic Two door landau was very comfortable too. Red velveteen interior with a white exterior.
My dad had great taste in comfortable cars, he bought a 1972 Mercury Marquise Brougham, and a 1978 Olds Toronado. Other than the brand new 1972 Datsun 240Z he came driving home in, the Toronado he drove home was class, looked like a million bucks to this 12 yo kid. It was white on white with a red dash, and accents. It was a custom order from someone else who didn't follow through with the deal when it arrived at the dealer. My dad got a good deal so bought it. I eventually wound up with both as the years wound down. In 75 when I got my license I received the Brougham, and then when I was about 20 I wound up with the Olds as dad bought himself a Caddy which he had always wanted. The Olds Toronado, and the Mercury Marquise Brougham were both boats of a car, but they were comfortable, that's why dad bought them! 😁👍✌🗽
I had a 1977 Cadillac coupe Deville, I drove it across the USA so comfortable and powerful it didn't miss a beat, I could leave the cruise control on through the mountains. Wouldn't lose any speed
One needs to define what is mean by comfortable. The 123 Mercedes, Of which I have owned four and my family many others over the years, is exceptionally comfortable, compared to most other vehicles out there but it's a different type of comfort compared to a Brougham, or Grand Marquis etc. They are softer and smoother around town yes, but the 123 is a better long distance (and I mean LONG distance) traveller. Of course most people in the US are familiar only with the diesels but I have a lot more experience with the Gas models and they are far more refined. Actually all Mercedes of that era, and their products from before that era - back into the 50's and 60's are in a class of their own in terms of ride and comfort. Mercedes did things their own way and didn't care what anybody else thought. That has all changed now. And I'll specifically mention the W116 Mercedes S-Class from 72 to 79. For me that is one of the absolutely most comfortable cars ever. Superb combo of both suspension, seats, and handling.
Had two Town Cars, an '83 and an '88 Cartier. Both were every bit as floaty and insulated as you'd imagine. Another super comfy car, just in a different way, was my '01 BMW 525. The E34 is great for racking up 450 mile days on the highway.
Maybe the best category will be the Best Make Out Cars , Hoovie and April could give us first hand experiences,imagine the look on Hoovies face with that
I had a 2003 Jeep Liberty Renegade. I'm not going to say that it was one of the most comfortable vehicles every made, but the optional leather seats were the most comfortable vehicle seats I have ever sat in.
My uncle's buddy had an '85 300TD and I rode it a few times in the late 80ies, and it was comfortable as well as quiet and fast. I remember once we were on Highway 10 in Quebec on our way to Sherbrooke, and we passed a cop on an overpass. He turned on the lights and I glanced at the speedo, and we were at 170 km/h (about 105 MPH). I asked François if he had seen the cop as I looked over my shoulder and saw him coming down the the on-ramp, and he accelerated to just under 200.km/h. "Nope" was all he said. I mumbled something about cops having radios, but we arrived at our destination unhindered by any law enforcement. I am guessing that the 123s you owned were rather worn Hoovie.
There's one car I'd like to see Tyler and April drive. It's surprisingly spacious on the inside, soft suspension for the comfortable ride, economic to run and very cheap to repair the engine etc. It's the Peel P-50. The iconic car built on the Isle of Man.
I am 20 years old and I have a 06 mercury grand marquis with just under 80k miles on it and I love it even though I have went through three catalytic converters I still think it was the best purchase that I have ever made
For me personally, the Lexus IS300 F Sport was my bread and butter most comfortable car I ever owned. Off course putting it on air ride only made it THAT much nicer. I was able to do a 4hr drive to Tail of the Dragon. Get out, turn the dampers up and have some fun. Then before heading home, turn the dampers back to soft, and just float home. After 12 hours in the car total, I felt great. Plus having the heated and cooled seats meant no matter what time of year it was, you were comfortable. Great seat adjust-ability to hit the spots just right when you're back was sore or stiff, quiet interior, yeah just a great cruising car. What comes in second was a 1988 Honda Accord LX Wagon. Those seats absorbed so much shock from the road it didn't matter that I lowered it all the way to ground. It felt wonderful. Something I've noticed is, the longer wheel base cars do seem to be more comfortable overall. I'm sure part of it is due to the market they are sold after, but the longer wheel base sure does a better job of absorbing discomfort from the road.
Another car that was really comfortable was the 1986 to 1993 Volvo 240. I owed a 1986 and still love the ride on that car and the seats, were ohhhhhhhhhh.

Good day all👍🏻from Australia 🇦🇺 I have read a lot of posts that people are very happy with the financial guidance he is giving them! What way can I get to him exactly ?
I love the ride of my 2006 Lincoln Town Car Designer. The air ride in the back and soft springs on the front along with the super comfortable seats makes it such a pleasure to drive. I also like the fact it’s easy to work on and parts are cheap. I only have 40k miles on it but I baby the car and know it will go forever if taken care of it. I bought it a year ago from the original owner when it had 25k on it. All I’ve done was change all the fluids and some other preventative maintenance like the serpentine belt, coolant hoses, spark plugs and stuff related to that. You can get a really nice low mileage example for around 10-12 grand. You can pick one up for 5-7 grand that has 80-100k on it. It’s definitely one of the best deals you can get for a really good comfortable car. It’s not going to win any races or awards for styling but it moves along well and gets good gas mileage on the highway for the size of it.
A friend had a Nissan Murano (not sure what year) that was SO comfortable and reminded me of another car I did own a Peugeot 504. So incredibly comfortable.
Back in the late 80’s early 90’s my parents had a Universal Motor Coach Ford Conversion Van and it was definitely very comfortable to take on trips with its swivel captain’s chairs in the front and middle row. VCR and TV in the rear and all the accent and mood lighting under the all the wood panels and trim. My grandparents always owned brand new Cadillac Broughams as they traded them every two years and they were boats but definitely very comfortable riding. They always had the very plush leather interiors.
Van conversions and top motorhomes and fifth wheels use Flexsteel. A company with a patented spring design similar to a tractor seat on a hairpin spring. Best home furniture too...
1970 Chrysler Imperial Lebanon, 1985 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Brougham. I've had some magnificent cars over the years(over 250), these two I wish I had back.
My sister had a couple of the BMW 740iLs and, yes, they were very comfortable. I'm over 6', very long legs, and the back seat was a great place to travel even long distances.
The Buick LeSabre was my “go to” rental car back in the day. I hated to take the regional hops back then and would fly into a hub (Chicago, Atlanta, Dallas, etc.) and drive 500-800 miles for my meetings. Never disappointed. Extremely comfortable and good gas mileage. Bought my mom a ‘95 Fleetwood Brougham. 5.7L LT1 Corvette V8 and it was unbelievable. A luxo Impala SS.
My 1976 Oldsmobile Ninety Eight Regency was the most amazingly comfortable 22' car. Plush crushed velour with back seat room that was like a limo. It was so quiet that if you were driving along at 75 & rolled the windows down your ears would pop.
Had a 2004 Volvo XC70 and then a 2013 S60. They both had the best seats I have ever had the pleasure to sit in. Not crazy cushy but you can drive all day and not have a problem.
100%. Impala SS is definitely more attractive/cooler and Caprice obviously was same platform but the Roadmaster was absolutely the most comfortable and straight line just as fast with
Hoovie...you have to add a LS 400 or LS 430 to your hooptie collection. It will fit in perfectly. I think you will like it very much. I have 3 of them...😅
I currently own an sc430 so the convertible version of the LS430 and maaaann what a car. 310,000 miles. Typical Lexus/Toyota leather cracking and what not but other than that car gets up and goes. They’re amazing
Fun fact about the actress who played the 3-boob woman - she played a TNG character, Ensign Sonya Gomez, who was kinda sorta going to be romance interest for Geordi. She spilled hot chocolate on Captain Picard and she was only in one episode after that.
My folks had a 1994 Ford E150 (with the 351W), that was customized by the now defunct Choo Choo Customs of Chattanooga, TN. It was a 'low top' van and had an Audiovox TV and VCR between the front seats built into the GIANT console with a cooler up front. In 1994 it was a big deal to have a TV in your car. My 1996 Ford E350 'Born Free' RV has those Captain's Chairs in them like you're talking about, but, I'll be honest, they could use some more 'bolstering'. You should look into an Born Free RV Hoovie, they were built in Iowa, and were built to a better standard than any other coaches of the day, and I would argue better than any modern ones. Unfortunately, they closed down in 2016. What a shame.
I've never heard you (or the Car Wizard) mention when discussing Citroens, the safety factor of that weird steering wheel post. It's designed so that it will not be jammed through your body in the event of a front end collision. Likewise, the engine and passenger compartments are designed so that front end impact drives the engine underneath the passengers instead of into them.
I would say the most comfortable car I have ever been in was my 1977 Lincoln Continental Mark V Cartier edition with the white leather seats with blue accents. Insanely comfortable seats and the deepest plush pile carpeting
Mercedes W124 Coupe and I have owned a W126, the W124 is better. Also Land Rover LR3, most comfy SUV I have driven. They aren't wrong on the Accent, I had an '01, was very comfy, I later bought seats from one and put in a Nissan Pulsar NX.
93-96 Cadillac Fleetwood or Buick Roadmaster. Any of the 77-90 GM full size wagons. maybe overlaps with the 77 Olds 98, but the wagon adds extra weight and utility.
Best seats of all time were in the Maserati Bora. They actually had calf support! Really loved my BMW 323 E46, the seats had the sport package extendable thigh support, supremely comfortable.
The volvos were great from the 1980s foward to at least 2010 ! Don't know after that . I worked for Volvo dealers and they were the best from 1977-2009
April April,since you have April's Garage,it's time to get some overalls,a jack and jack stands ,some tools and I would like to see you remove the transmission,you can do it ,but if you need help put a post up asking for any mechanics out there to come and help , I'm sure there will be willing lads who would lay under a car with you to help remove the transmission, Hoovie seeing this may lift his game and start doing things with his hands that involves Tools !
April and Jalopniks aren't wrong. In 2018, I bought a 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis LS, fully optioned with 70K miles from an elderly couple in near mint condition for $4,000 cash.

At the end of the day, I can't wait to trash the Camry and get back in the Mercury, the Mercury is so much better.

And the V8 in the Mercury is so smooth that I often don't even know it is running, while the Camry's 4-cylinder is harsh at idle and while it revs up like a hamster on a wheel.

Jaguar xj vanden. I worked as a valet 2008-2010 and those cars made me a Jaguar fan
I had a 1973 4 door oldsmobile cutlass salon, very comfortable, Also I had a conversion van, terrible gas mileage, but way comfortable.

My grandparents always owned brand new Cadillac Broughams as they traded them every two years and they were boats but definitely very comfortable riding. They always had the very plush leather interiors.
Van conversions and top motorhomes and fifth wheels use Flexsteel. A company with a patented spring design similar to a tractor seat on a hairpin spring. Best home furniture too...
1970 Chrysler Imperial Lebanon, 1985 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Brougham. I've had some magnificent cars over the years(over 250), these two I wish I had back.
My sister had a couple of the BMW 740iLs and, yes, they were very comfortable. I'm over 6', very long legs, and the back seat was a great place to travel even long distances.
My brother had a '94 Ford Thunderbird LX. It had the most comfortable front seats. It was an awesome road trip car.
Every Volvo I’ve ever owned..:)
I own a 06 S60...someone told me a Chiro helped design these seats
The Buick LeSabre was my “go to” rental car back in the day. I hated to take the regional hops back then and would fly into a hub (Chicago, Atlanta, Dallas, etc.) and drive 500-800 miles for my meetings. Never disappointed. Extremely comfortable and good gas mileage.
Bought my mom a ‘95 Fleetwood Brougham. 5.7L LT1 Corvette V8 and it was unbelievable. A luxo Impala SS.
5:03 thanks jake for getting this close up on his reaction you understand the ❤ Your a magnificent person and hope to see you more in videos.
I love the comfortable ride of my baby 88 Eldorado.
I have a 2002 GMC Yukon Xl. The ride is great and I have the upgraded soft leather seats. Soooo comfortable!!
Citroën C6 is a very nice ride as well
Dodge Omni. One of the best seats I sat in. Super comfortable!
2000 Ford Ranger XLT that front bench was like a little couch. I nicknamed that thing “the loveseat”
The Panther cars + Chevy Caprice from the 80's are the two types of cars I have found to be the most comfortable
Comfortability is not a word April.

My grandparents were from Russell ks and were always rocking a big ole Mercury
"Any cars missed, April?" "Buick Grand National!"
The 560 SEC is just one of the greatest cars ever made, comfortable, cool, made solid/reliable, wonder if you've ever had one Hoovie?
AGAIN… Great content!!!
My 1976 Oldsmobile Ninety Eight Regency was the most amazingly comfortable 22' car. Plush crushed velour with back seat room that was like a limo. It was so quiet that if you were driving along at 75 & rolled the windows down your ears would pop.
Tyler - first rule of entertainment- start with number 10 and work towards 1. You know this! 😆 I’ve now switched off after 1.
Still waiting for the Grand Marquis to have a de Sade package.😂
My top 3 from my experience
1996 Chrysler New Yorker
2016 Mercedes S Class
2001 Cadillac Deville
Any late 80’s or early 90’s Jaguar with the pepper pot wheels. Legendary ride comfort!
Had a 2004 Volvo XC70 and then a 2013 S60. They both had the best seats I have ever had the pleasure to sit in. Not crazy cushy but you can drive all day and not have a problem.
Got my up vote because Neelix is on camera, even if it was for a few minutes.
My 123 was a 280 CE with the beautiful reliable twin cam 6 gas engine and was a VERY NICE RIDE…..I do agree about the diesels though.
Buick Roadmaster and if you don't agree, argue with yourself.
100%. Impala SS is definitely more attractive/cooler and Caprice obviously was same platform but the Roadmaster was absolutely the most comfortable and straight line just as fast with
Good morning. I love the content. Keep u the good work
Hoovie...you have to add a LS 400 or LS 430 to your hooptie collection. It will fit in perfectly. I think you will like it very much.
I have 3 of them...😅
I have owned two Gen 1 Raptors and have to say they have an amazing ride.
Yes Jake, the Movie that Tyler mentioned was Total Recall from 1990 with Arnold Schwarzenegger
I currently own an sc430 so the convertible version of the LS430 and maaaann what a car. 310,000 miles. Typical Lexus/Toyota leather cracking and what not but other than that car gets up and goes. They’re amazing
Jake is having alot of fun editing 😂😂
Fun fact about the actress who played the 3-boob woman - she played a TNG character, Ensign Sonya Gomez, who was kinda sorta going to be romance interest for Geordi.
She spilled hot chocolate on Captain Picard and she was only in one episode after that.
Some of the worst seats ever were in a 2002 E430 (the non-orthopedic option). It was like sitting on two icy wooden boards.
My folks had a 1994 Ford E150 (with the 351W), that was customized by the now defunct Choo Choo Customs of Chattanooga, TN. It was a 'low top' van and had an Audiovox TV and VCR between the front seats built into the GIANT console with a cooler up front. In 1994 it was a big deal to have a TV in your car.
My 1996 Ford E350 'Born Free' RV has those Captain's Chairs in them like you're talking about, but, I'll be honest, they could use some more 'bolstering'. You should look into an Born Free RV Hoovie, they were built in Iowa, and were built to a better standard than any other coaches of the day, and I would argue better than any modern ones. Unfortunately, they closed down in 2016. What a shame.
I've never heard you (or the Car Wizard) mention when discussing Citroens, the safety factor of that weird steering wheel post. It's designed so that it will not be jammed through your body in the event of a front end collision. Likewise, the engine and passenger compartments are designed so that front end impact drives the engine underneath the passengers instead of into them.
I would say the most comfortable car I have ever been in was my 1977 Lincoln Continental Mark V Cartier edition with the white leather seats with blue accents. Insanely comfortable seats and the deepest plush pile carpeting
My dad’s last car was a 2003 accent, 2 door hatchback. And yes, it being a small tin can, it was unexpectedly comfortable….….
My 1976 Lincoln Towncar and 1992 Buick Roadmaster were incredible comfortable. Like floating on a cloud. Hi Neelix….how’s the kittens doing ???
I had a 77 couple Deville blue with blue leather, cruises does the hwy beautifully
Mercedes W124 Coupe and I have owned a W126, the W124 is better. Also Land Rover LR3, most comfy SUV I have driven. They aren't wrong on the Accent, I had an '01, was very comfy, I later bought seats from one and put in a Nissan Pulsar NX.
Absolutely love the Buick LeSabre, long live the 3800 and Dynaride
93-96 Cadillac Fleetwood or Buick Roadmaster. Any of the 77-90 GM full size wagons. maybe overlaps with the 77 Olds 98, but the wagon adds extra weight and utility.
I learned to drive in an 89 lincoln town car. Still cant parallel park anything smaller
Best seats of all time were in the Maserati Bora. They actually had calf support! Really loved my BMW 323 E46, the seats had the sport package extendable thigh support, supremely comfortable.
Bora seats are a work of art, those are just magnificent looking vehicles.
99-01 Chrysler LHS, 96-00 Town and Country leather seats, 99-04 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Chrysler New Yorker Fifth Avenue, 05-09 Ford Five Hundred/Taurus.
In my prime I was near 6'5" 265lbs. The most comfortable car with lots of room EVERYWHERE is the last generation Lincoln Town Car.
The volvos were great from the 1980s foward to at least 2010 ! Don't know after that . I worked for Volvo dealers and they were the best from 1977-2009
She’s right. People sound 80 years old talking intently about car comfort.
Chrysler New Yorker, Imperials, Fifth Ave 70'- Mid 80's
How about a 1997 Saab 9000 Aero. Those interiors and seats are magnificent! Also, 1995 BMW M3 Vader seats, very comfy while having good support.
Good Morning!
Renault 12 Nordic - No power, very soft suspension and great seats.
The two most comfortable cars I have been in are the 1991 Mercedes 230e and the Chevy Caprice 1991. I can sleep in them even if they drive off-road
My pick 1964 Lincoln Continental.
April is a baddie I like watching the show because of herr
April April,since you have April's Garage,it's time to get some overalls,a jack and jack stands ,some tools and I would like to see you remove the transmission,you can do it ,but if you need help put a post up asking for any mechanics out there to come and help , I'm sure there will be willing lads who would lay under a car with you to help remove the transmission, Hoovie seeing this may lift his game and start doing things with his hands that involves Tools !
