There, I'm out of the closet. Full confession, right there.

However... knowing that my six- shooter 5th gen makes more than twice the ponies, well, not so sure I'd be willing to plunk down a lot of money for that 3rd gen. It's got a little cool "nostalgia" factor to it, but I could buy a pretty decent one, in a better color, that's well used, for 1/20 of the price. I could drive that around without feeling guilt about the miles, I could roast the tires off (well, if the car even has enough oomph to do it) and not feel like I was deflowering a precious virgin, and IF I had too many PBRs and me my mullet wrapped the car around a telephone pole, it would NOT make the news, and I'd be out less that $2000.
Hi Ken!

The 3rd generation is my third favorite generation (no pun intended):

1. 1970-73/1978-81
2. 2014-15
3. 1985-89

I'd sell my 1996 Lincoln to make room for one, but the Town Car is a helluva commuter car.
