    What did you do to your car today?

    Replaced driver door actuator, I used a black coated bolt with attached washer, hands are small enough I could actually put nut on the inside of the door. Looks stock. Next up—replace AC compressor and accessories.

    What A\C compressor to replace Stock unit?

    mine just burned up - filled the interior with the smell of molten asbestos. Found a complete kit on RockAuto, issue is on their site and everyone else's there are usually at least two choices of compressors. Hard to tell which is correct, the piston replacement or scroll style. The scroll style...

    Tire recommendations ?

    I just put Continental Crosscontact 285/50/18 on my stock rims. they look great, can't tell the difference except for the fact they hook much better than the stock tires did. https://www.ebay.com/itm/CONTINENTAL-CrossContact-UHP-285-50R18-109W-Quantity-of-2-/183585347942?oid=362581879929

    Doug DeMuro reviews a 2005 Lincoln Town Car

    I have a 2000 and will say his description of the ride is right on, my car is nothing special in as of looks, performance or options but it is by far the most comfortable riding car I have ever owned.

    Clock Spring or Switches issue?

    Found this in the archives, so it does look like it could be the reason my horn doesn't work nor my cruise control. Yet is still could be the clock spring as well. https://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/archive/index.php/t-14331.html

    Clock Spring or Switches issue?

    OK, so: Is that just an abnormality that doesn't affect anything else or was it discovered it was an issue that affected something else?

    Rod Knock

    I'll let the experts chime in about the engine. I'll give some dad advice, as a father of 4 kids, the last two twins I feel for you. The expenses only go up, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. Time with them is even more valuable than the almighty dollar, so enjoy it. Time goes by really...

    Clock Spring or Switches issue?

    My cruise control hasn't worked for a while now and the horn is intermittent. To me that points to the clock spring. This morning I was cleaning the switches on the steering wheel when i pressed the on/off cruise button (the switches on the lower left of the steering wheel) the horn...

    Lost muscle-car history

    Dang, at least he is ok. Won't stop me from driving mine but does make you worry every minute of a drive.

    Are you faster than a Hellcat?

    Sales numbers had little to nothing to do with the demise of the Marauder, in the end it was that they were moving away from performance cars and becoming the family orientated car division. I agree that with a few changes the MM is a great big old cool American Muscle car but it does not take...

    351W stroker or Gen 3 Coyote?

    I have no opinion beyond the fact that having numerous big block vintage muscle cars I really appreciate the ability to drive the Marauder long distances in comfort and confidence. Nothing like cruising the streets in a vintage drop top but... the older I get the more I like reliability, safety...

    3 Marauders to choose from...which do you pick

    3, then 1 or 2. Here in Chicago they salt the roads in July just for fun :) so I'm not afraid of that. The blue looks great in photos, all though I am not a fan of Light Flint either, to me its most acceptable with blue. With the rarity of the blue cars I'd go for that first. The other two are...

    Blue in La Grange Park, IL

    I haven't seen a blue in the Chicago area in probably 5 years at least. And I'm near LP all the time.

    Remember the 'Amazon' Truck?

    The Rivian does have a radiator, it has liquid cooled batteries. The radiator is in the front, just not as tall as most. Not sure if they use it for AC as well

    Remember the 'Amazon' Truck?

    I'm just guessing, because they are not designing it for you or me. Completely different market. That hood on the truck is now a huge secure storage area, every part of that truck is storage of some kind or another and its fast as heck. I don't much like the looks either but their most...

    Remember the 'Amazon' Truck?

    Nope no Honda for me. I’m guessing this is just a cycle and Ford will have more than a Mustang in their line up again eventually. I like electric cars, as long as I can still keep my V8 combustion engines to enjoy occasionally. I have two Fusion Energi’s in my household. But for less than $75k I...
