2001 Mercury Grand Marquis - The interior is very comfortable and has lots of room. The frame is very sturdy. I have drove it 104,000 miles and hit a tree and only came out of it with one dent. It has a very stylish feel, and as many would call it, the "old man's car" is great for an

I liked the fact that it never broke down. It sat in the barn for the entire winter without being started even just once, and still ran like a top come spring time. The big beast wasn't very fuel-conservative, but when it came to accident-prone people, it was perfect. It was easy to perform maintenance on, and had a very simple engine and internal system. It performed great for 104,000 miles until the tires blew, but what tires don't go bad at some point in time? The interior of the car was very spacious, perfect for carpooling or any medium sized family. The seats and details were very stylish, and easy to clean.
Story
In Neoga, IL, my fiancé` were driving around in my car during the early part of summer, and we found an old country road that I had never been down before. We decided to go for it. We got about halfway down the dusty road, blaring Skid Row, and all of a sudden, the tire blew. This was only about a day after getting a tune up, so I had assumed that it would be fine. We called his mother to come... (more)
Pros
I loved this vehicle due to the fact that it would just run and run. It handled very well, especially for the engine in it. The car would go 0-70 in about 45 seconds, a feature slightly difficult to find in a vehicle around that year. The trunk was very spacious and could probably fit a small tank. I have fit over $300 worth of groceries and general household supplies in the trunk with room left over. There is lots of leg room up front in the seats, and as I mentioned before, it would be great for carpooling or any typical soccer mom. Another thing I thoroughly enjoyed about this particula...

Cons
The top negative things about the Grand Marquis, in my opinion, were mainly small things. For example, I had issues with the exhaust once in a while, being as how I would weld it and bolt it and do whatever it took to quiet it down, but not even a week later, it would need to be done again. Another thing that I didn't particularly care for was the low fuel efficiency. I could only get about 15-20 miles per fill-up, on a good day. It was a huge spending deficit, especially for the amount of bills I have every month. In addition, I had to replace two of the coil packs a couple of months afte... (more)

The Mercury Grand Marquis, GS, is one great automobile. The car is roomy and spacious. When it comes to power and performance, this car beats all of its competitors, wheels down. Let's start out with the engine. It comes standard with a V8 engine that will blow the doors off of the usual V6 and V4's. While those other cars can barely chug up a hill, the Grand Marquis, will glide up the hill towing a full load. Front bench seat, allows for up to six adults to sit comfortably. Leg room is no problem in the front or the back seat. It comes with all the power options, like window, doors, outside mirrors and seats. The power adjustable front seat is great because you can go higher or lower, which is a bonus if you are extra tall or those who are not standard height (you can throw out the ol... (more)
Story
This car just makes road trips fun. I am not a person who really likes driving. I think I am too impatient. Yet I get in my car, turn on my tunes, have my snacks handy and before I know it I am to my destination.
Pros
Powerful V8 engine. Safe vehicle. Well built. Roomy. Great gas mileage. Radio controls built into the steering wheel. Retains its value in looks and performance. Driver's seat that adjusts: forward and backward, up and down.
Cons
The vehicle only came with an AM/FM/cassette radio. There is no built in Navigation or emergency alert system. These two things are not as big of a deal as they would seem at first as most people today, either change out the factory installed radio in a car for something more powerful with better features or plug their smartphone via auxiliary cord to the car radio. I prefer to use my phone and my free online navigation app anyway so a quick trip to the dollar store, where I purchased a cassette adapter for a buck, made this a non-issue. In fact not having a fancy radio installed, makes my... (more)
