I have a 1999 Ford Crown Victoria and was wondering if the gauge cluster of a newer model crown victoria such as the 2006 with the tachometer would work in the 1999. Thanks for helping, if you can. :confuse: Read More...

Re: 1994 Ford Crown Victoria Lx/2006 Mercury Grand Marquis Ls owner observation [frank06]

Written by: jsylvester on Nov 12, 2006 08:56 PM

I too moved from a 1994 to a newer one - a 94 Grand Marquis LS for a 2002 Grand Marquis LSE. The newer one handles better, but the older one had better road isolation. The window regulators were a weak point on the older Grand Marquis - the only weak points on the newer ones is the cost cutting in certain areas by Ford - the bugs have been worked out for the most part, so you ...

1994 Ford Crown Victoria Lx/2006 Mercury Grand Marquis Ls owner observation

Written by: frank06 on Nov 12, 2006 04:25 AM

I bought a 1994 Crown Vic Lx new in July 1994 and in April 2006 bought new a Grand Marquis Ls. The safisfying experience with the 94 Vic, brought me back to consider and buying the 06 Grand Marquis. I kept my 94 because it still rides and looks great. My 06 Marquis, I hope will be as good a choice as the Vic has been. Wish they had kept the inside gas door release, bigger gas ... Read More...

2006 Mercury Grand Marquis Spare Tire

Written by: frank06 on Nov 12, 2006 04:03 AM

I bought a 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis LS Ultimate in April 2006. It has the Chrome Wheel option, and Full Size Spare Wheel option which added $695 and $80 respectively to the MSRP. Not only was it a surprise, but also, in my opinion, deceptive marketing, to not include the information that the full size spare would not be on a matching chrome wheel, but also that the ...

Re: Handling Package and HP

Written by: batista on Jun 13, 2005 05:40 PM

The Crown Victoria/Grand Marquis is a joke to have only 224-239 HP. It was acceptable until about 2001. The Honda Accord V6 puts out 240 HP (starting in 2002) and from a SOHC 3.0L while the CW/GM requires a 4.6L V8. When is Ford going to update these engines? They need to up the HP to 300 to get respect from their customers. The 2006 Toyota Avalon puts out 280HP from a ... Read More...

Future Crown Vic and Grand Marquis

Soild rear axle, interior, power

Written by: fsmmcsi on Apr 20, 2005 08:27 PM

The only problems I have with the Crown Victoria / Grand Marquis / Town Car are the completely outdated interior (sliding around on the flat seats is no fun), and the solid rear axle. You just can not have a smooth ride with a solid rear axle. Ford apparently did not have a competitive push before the 300 & Charger came along. As for the engine, the 2006 Explorer has ...

Hold on and see what happens in 2006 and 2008. The new Charger police model requires Ford to upgrade the car, especially power, or they will lose a big chunk of the market. Read More...
