Yea, but why not do it in a superior German land yacht which will cruise as chill and comfortably , but at twice the speed? That's what killed these cars in the end actually, the fact that they just couldn't keep up with German luxury sedans which just became so much more advanced and capable they made these cars feel like they were stuck 30 years in the past. It's easy to make a comfortable car that nobody's ever gonna drive faster than 70-80 mph, with super soft and floaty suspension and soft seats. But once you have the option to drive a car that's gonna cruise at 150, be more stable than your old car at 70, and more quiet and smooth at the same time, then you kinda start seeing why these cars died off. I mean, drive this Lincoln, or any any Cadillac from the period, back to back with something like a BMW 5 or 7 series from the mid 90's, and you'll realize the absolutely massive difference between them. It's like comparing a steam locomotive to a bullet train. The old stuff has a certain charm, yes, and, but they don't have the capability objectively speaking.

I remember my Dad letting me drive his Town Car of this vintage. It was a smooth driver for sure, plenty of power. And there were no cup holders in the back for a reason- so us kids couldn't bring drinks back there because they didn't BELONG there, 'you finish your drinks before we leave' LOL

Brings back memories. Drove this model in the same color from JFK to Reading, DC, Buffalo, Toronto, Montreal and back to JFK in 1996. My mother could rest and sleep perfectly well in the front passenger seat on the long trips. Cornering lights: Cadillac got them in 1964. Mercury, T-Birds and other cars for them soon after. Lincoln should have had them in 1965, but ended up waiting untill the model change in 1970. Key hole light was intruduced in selected cars around 1979. Hi Low lights with the mirror in the sun visors- my 1975 Continental Mark IV has that in both sides. The Town Car we drove in 1996 - like the models I drove the previous years, had a double set of sun visors, left an right front, to help you with low hanging sun light from the side, by swinging the one set out to the door window. I would love to have this particular car again, but they are hard to find here and difficult to import because of car inspection regulations. It is possible, though. I will have to work on that.

One of the best features Ford has ever created for cars was their keypad coded entry. They actually first offered it way back in 1980 on the Thunderbird and all Lincolns. It was revolutionary then because it pre-dated remote controlled keyless locking that pretty much every car has standard now by about 8 years from any manufacturer. The idea that you could lock or unlock your car without the key...... whoa!! That was some spaceship stuff back then!! As far as I know, only Nissan used a version of it briefly in the late 80s Maxima. I'd really like to know to this day why no one else uses it. Does Ford hold a strong copyright on the design? You can't beat a Town Car as the ultimate everyday driver. Especially these late 90s models. That panther platform is infinitely reliable, parts are a dime a dozen when something does break, they're easy to work on, the car is comfortable, plenty of room for all your friends/family and all their stuff for a long trip, and repairs are cheap. Nice find!

Note that you can use the factory code to add other user codes to the system. Having your own personal code makes it much easier to remember. One of the things I like about the keypad is that you can leave the keys in the ignition with the car running and lock it with the keypad. This is Handy if you just want to run in to a convenience store or such for a couple minutes without shutting the car off but still having it locked. I think Ford hit gold when they developed this keypad system.

A very comfortable driving car for long road trips similar to Jaguar. Enjoyed your video.

A handle pops out of the hood so it's super easy to open instead of trying to find where the lever is under the hood. You can also lock the glovebox and trunk button with the key so a valet can't get in your car with the valet key and go into your trunk or box.

I did a complete coolant flush, changed oil( air and oil filter), replaced the exhaust hanger bushings and finally to get the full Town Car experience; I replaced the Air ride bags and rear shocks and the compressor while I was at it. Car is in fantastic shape. And man... i am so in love with it. Got this sucker for 5,500. In today's market, like you said, that is a price I am so glad I paid. Just gave it its first wash today. Man the wheels came out clean.

I drive a '91 Towne Car, and I love it. For a big car it gets pretty darn good gas mileage, especially if I don't put my foot in it, (which is hard to resist becaus'e it has a powerful engine). One feature you didn't mention, which mine has and I assume yours does, is the air suspension switch, which is found inside the trunk. It has something to do with stabilizing the car when it is being jacked up. It's a safety feature, though I've never had to use it. Also, I like the power adjusted and heated rear view mirrors, which makes it easy to do even when driving. They're very underrated cars I feel, and probably are often overlooked by many because of assumed high fuel consumption, which I have found not really to be the case, not at all. It's a honey of a ride!

Fantastic video, extremely informative, thank you so much for your hard work, keep it up, have a great day.

I grew up with these cars. My parents had a late 80's model and two late 90's models. With 4 kids in the family plenty of room. Brings back memories.

That keypad on the door is something as far as I know, only Ford ever used. And they still use it. I don't know why other manufacturers have not embraced it. Made even more sense before keyless entry became commonplace. I don't know about that one, but on later versions of the system you could change the code. By the way, my mother had a 1989 eagle premier that had factory keyless entry. Something which didn't appear on so called luxury cars until much later

Man, I totally agree with you about the keypad on the Lincoln. It's totally something the other brands should come out with. I recall seeing an invisible keypad on latter Lincolns where it's hidden in the outside door pillar and you don't even know it's there until it lights up.

@@imadtanouticonta Right now oil companies are not investing in any new projects. Actually many are attempting to transition to so-called green energy projects. Without investments in exploration and new projects, that means there will be a low supply of crude to meet demand. For those of you in the usa, just wait until the government starts to impose shockingly high carbon tax on all petroleum products. That has been going on for a while here in canada. The bottom line is that these idiot politicians have no idea how an economy is going to function without the use of fossil fuels nor how such ridiculously high carbon taxes will affect lower income people much more significantly than those of higher income status. And that's even more hypocritical when they hold themselves out as the great saviors of the lower socioeconomic class. These globalists do not want us unwashed peasants to have anything more than a small cubicle apartment to live in and using public transportation. And heaven forbid the absolutely don't want us to have firearms for the obvious reason of fearing us. Of course having two or more luxurious homes along with a fleet of vehicles and maybe even a yacht throwing in is only reserved for them as part of the elite class.

I got one of these. 1997 Lincoln Town Car Cartier.. I didn’t know about almost any of these features. Thanks my man.

I had a 1996, same color too. I sure do miss that car! Most comfortable car I ever had.

Cool features, that might be the reason about the Grille pushing in, I always wondered about the 1981 Oldsmobile Cutlass because the Grille inserts do the same thing. Great Job 👍.

There something related to safety regulations from 1973 that requires the car must have no damage up to a 5 mph collision. Those dumping bumpers was developed at that time along with these kind of grills.

Thanks man for checking out the Town Car vid from Friday!

I love the parchment colour interior, practically flawless!

This guy did a great job of explaining the features of this car . I really want to find a mint condition luxo barge like this Lincoln Towncar . 👍❤😊

I love this car, great colour, shame I'm the UK otherwise I'd be trying to get it off you Chris. Keep making videos about this car

Ford built these cars down the road from where I live. Very cool

I had a few of these, one had over 300 thousand km on the clock. I loved them all and miss the big car ride

Man, that Town Car is real nice, I had a 1989 and loved it.

Interesting video. I bought a new one in 1993 and loved it. Sold it with 230,000 miles, it still ran great.

I just LOVE that combo, Dark Evergreen/Prairie Tan (or camel) in these 95-97's. One of my all time favorites and I wanted one since I was 9 back when the new 95's were just hitting the showrooms in 94. My dad almost got a 95/96 LTC but didnt want the payments smh. Mom bought a new 95' Mercury Tracer Trio in that same Dk Evergreen and I been in love with that color ever since. I just scored a super clean 97' Cartier Ivory Pearlscent/Ivory & tan w/ sunroof and heated fr seats. I had, and have, so many cars but my 97 just melts my heart soon as I start her ❤. My 5th Panther (even had a 04 Marauder, now have a 11' P7B). Never knew about the spring loaded grill and I'll try it soon as I get home from work!

Nice car for its age! I had a 95 Town Car Cartier for 8 years. A few other things to note: The cornering lights should work with or without the headlights being on, the outside keypad should also light up with the door lock hole, the outside mirror should also dim along with the inside rear view mirror, and the hood ornament is spring loaded just like the grill to prevent theft. Please don't run your tank dry as you may take a chance on burning up the fuel pump especially considering the age of the car.

you missed a couple things: 1.on the keypad,after entering the code, pressing 5/6 will pop the trunk. 2.pushing in the headlight switch activates the dome light function. pivoting the dome light activates the map/reading light function
