Was in a 03 Town Car for most of the day today and it was nice. The car had 210K miles on it and it ran great and everything worked perfectly.
The Town Car...

Consider something else.
My wife bought a 05 Magnum and it was a total nightmare with every issue it could possibly have. She sold it a year later and bought a late model Crown Victoria which she really likes with no issues.
A local PD bought 2 Magnums for K-9 use and found out later on they...
If you live in the Broward/Miami-Dade area I doubt you would have such good service from a auto chain group. I have seen more people ripped off then I can count. I will say I hear less complaints about Sears then the other ones. The average oil change from a auto chain group in Florida is 600...

Florida is the biggest rip off state when it comes to auto repairs. Several tire dealers tried to rip off my mother so many times I lost count. She finally found a honest private garage.
I live in Broward County and its real bad here for rip offs. Miami Dade County [where I work] is just as...

On my old Jeep, the front fender was repainted when i bought it used.

How big are the bubbles?
Pics?
Waxing probably has no effect.
I bet it's coming from the inside out.
Take it to a reputable paint and body shop and ask them what exactly is going on.
The bubbles are real small and shows up...

Noticed recently some bubbles in the paint on the hood,top trunk. Its out of warrenty. Took it to the dealer today to ask them about it and they said unless the bubbles bust leave it alone. If it does bust I will have to repaint the effected areas at a tune of 1500 bucks.
Is this a normal...
Shell here in South Florida was trashing peoples cars about 2 years ago when they had a unsually high sulphor content.Some people had to pay up to 1500 to 2k bucks to get their car fixed.It killed the gas gauge and some computer sensors.Then when Shell realized what was happening instead of...
