    The Sequel and/or remake of my first Grand Marquis video. This one is longer and goes more in depth about the car. Now with shots of the engine running and trunk. Has also shots of me driving with camera shots outside the car. I must admit, I'm a saabkyle04 fan so it includes a few of his signature camera shots. I mumble a few words in this video. This is because it was intended to be a narrated video, but I dropped the voice over option midway through filming.
    It's almost been a year since I've purchased the car, and it's still in perfect driving condition. I've recently waxed it and shampoo'ed the carpets. The only major issue I had with it was the muffler, which needed to be replaced. Other minor issues were both front headlights and a taillight. The A/C is still not functionning, but I don't have any plans to repair it soon, as I don't see it as a priority. Brand new tires this summer to replace the 23-year old Michelins: Toyo white wall tires.
    Well enjoy the video!
    Filmed Between May and July 2013 by Yours Truly.

    My first car ever was a 1991 Mercury Grand Marquis. I LOVED that car. My only issue with it... I worked 3rd shift at a manufacturing company for pet food and supplies. I worked from 10PM until anywhere from 6-9AM. Here's the problem. That front "bench" seat was more comfortable than the $2000 sofa I had at home. I spent every morning on my 30 minute drive home with the windows all the way down, and 50 Cent's "Get Rich Or Die Trying: Movie Soundtrack" Playing at max volume through 4 pioneer car speakers and 2 Rockford Fosgate's 12" Subs. And even then, I fought back hibernation. I loved that car more than my dog, my woman and my mother. And I spent more time with it than them also. :D. Keep that car MINT. You'll never forget the bastard.

      Awesome story Mr. Snow! I did have a few trips where it was difficult to keep my eyes open. With some Creedance in the Prenium sound speakers and a huge mug of coffee (with a cover on, naturally) I managed to get through. Problem is, with that bench seat, I'm so used to them I wouldn't go for any less in another car. haha

    i love the rugged elegance of these older, box-style cars. got a 99 crown vic and it's a nice car and all but once ford went all aero (1991-2011 i think) with these cars, the interior and exterior styling got really boring.
    i wish my car had the all-around styling of this thing!

    • @CTjacob13
      @CTjacob13 9 років тому +4

      The 98-11 cars have very subtle styling. No one notices it and games don't usually model it but even the trunk lid on these cars have like a little duck tail thing going on. I like the subtle sportiness to them.

    I don't know where you live, but it's a gorgeous area! (especially with the trees)
    And to the car; gorgeous! I appreciate you keeping it stock.. seems like the remainder of these cars are donked out unfortunately. Your color combo isn't very common either.
    Now I really love this generation of panther bodies but I gotta ask what's it like daily driving one of these? Expensive to keep running? Parts hard to find? As a broke teenager I'm worried that I won't be able to afford to either A. buy gas, and B. afford the bigger maintenance. (not the usual preventive basic stuff)

    • @coolguy2370
      @coolguy2370 5 років тому

      They really aren't too expensive if you buy it in good enough shape I bought one as my first car and still have it just remember when you buy a car that old no matter what it's going to fall apart especially in your first year owning it but once it get all fixed up they are fairly reliable and parts are very plentiful, you want a car that parts are easy to find 80s-90s Ford crown Vics and Chevy caprices
      But for big repairs I'd say unless it's a new engine or trans you won't break past 600
      And gas wise it gets about 14 mpg not the greatest but it's got drive for the city and overdrive for the highway it helps somewhat

    I recently bought a 1989 Grand Marquis that is almost a twin to yours. Mine has the dark blue crushed velour interior and was a 50th Anniversary edition with gold trim and carraige type roof covering. It only has 67,000.0 miles and is in excellent shape. It now joins my two Ford Crown Victoria Wagons a 1987 and a 1991 in my collection.
