I would like to thank Ian, Vo, Paul F., Paul N., Don, Ron, and Lee.



My parents wanted a mini van for a change for when they have the grand kids
visiting.

They selected a 2000 Mazda MVP.  I took them to the library to research
Consumers Reports.

The van was pretty reliable and had red circles (some full and half/full).
I felt good about the van and they got a good deal.



I was thinking they might want a Crown Vic esp. after having the Town Car.
They said no, I understood.



The Crown Vic is on my list for a good replacement for my SHO when it goes.
I didnt realize they were such good cars.

If I ever need a minivan I will remember the Nissan Quest/Merc Villager.



Thanks again everyone.

Curious:

The crown vics have the same engine as the Mustang (not 05 model)?

I wonder if people super charge those CVs? :-)

Anyone ever thought of making their own high performing Marauder based on
the CV?
