So,my dad is a truck driver at the Chrysler plant where they build the Chrysler 300,Dodge Charger and Challenger and has been there about 3 years.

He currently has a very clean 2001 Lincoln LS V8
thread post photo


The car has just over 200 000km (125k miles) on it,with new tires,new transmission and some other mechanical work done. Loaded to the tits,including the factory Alpine CD player and 6 disc changer.

He's thinking of selling it privately for around $8000 CDN with a safety inspection and valid emissions test. Think that price is decent,or too high?

He want to get a 2009 Challenger R/T,in white,but the going price is around $36k,but he wants to sell or trade the Lincoln as his down payment...wants to finance it for 72 months...looking around $380-410/mo for payments.

He's really thinking about it,but is torn about the Lincoln....keep it and drive it into the ground,or sell it now while it's still in great shape.


Hmmm...a Challenger RT would be tits.

niiiice. the old man and I like them in white & black the best. I don't think there is much of a wait for them. He was at he dealer looking at them yesterday.

He took out a base model SE 3.5 and said even that thing hauled ass.

Where he works at Chrysler shunting trailers in the yard,he gets to see the guys out in the lot testing and beating the the shit out of the cars that come off the line. If photos aren't any motivation to get one,then I don't know what watching them burn rubber all day is.
