1992 Ford Crown Victoria LX review from North America
"Probably the most comfortable car I have ever owned and definitely the best value all-around"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alternator needed replacement at 130K.
General comments?
This car is a real surprise combination of power, luxury and economy. It has more than enough horsepower to safely manuever in the most demanding Interstate highway situations; feels like you are sitting on your recliner at home; and gets exceptional mileage for a V8.
Most cars that I've owned with a ride this nice were either Olds or Buick and had noticeably squishy suspension. The Crown LX just feels perfectly responsive in all conditions.
We own newer, flashier, more popular cars, but the family always wants to "ride in the limo". It is that comfortable for everyone.
