Local pickup - Davenport, FL.
Daily driver for 20 years!
4:10 gears, under drive pulleys, 180 degree thermostat, Kooks headers, recent paint (non-oem black), all receipts. Not a show car, but well cared for.
Bad news: latest oil change reveled metal shavings and a loss of oil. Still runs and...
Put the same setup as SC Cheesehead (see post #2) on my MM last week - just in time for the trip to Dan's Crab House. I have over 125K on my MM and I definately can tell the difference (for the better)!
Thanks for the input! I feel much better about s/c-ing with my current mileage. My car is running great right now & I'm averaging 22 mpg on my daily commute!
It's been over a year since I've had the car looked at, other than oil changes and a state inspection. Would like to get her to a shop...
I count on my MM to take me 175 miles/day and enjoy every minute! As my MM approaches 125K miles, I am looking for a reputable shop (Gainesville, VA area) to give her good check-up and ensure she continues to operate at peak levels. When I was in FL, Dennis Rinehart did most of my work.
I am...
Good Times!
It was good meeting Mike and his wife Pat. Mike's black MM with the Light Flint interior was the first I've seen w/that combo. When I looked up the build data, there were only 115 MM's w/that combo - rare in deed!
Ryan & I parked on either side.
Looking forward to more meets and...
VIN Decoding
Got my cert today. It came w/a VIN decoder that differentiates the Grand Marquis (M75) from the Marauder (M79). Although I am certain I own a Marauder, my VIN number includes M75. Can anyone clear up the discrepancy?
This might explain why the dealers keep asking me to bring in my...
I thought I saw an MM and by the time I realized it - too late. I am from FL and was on my way to AZ enjoying the 80 mph speed limit. None of that where I come from!
I'll be in AZ for a few months on a project, then will make my way back.

Saw a black MM on my way back from lunch today near the Navy Federal Credit Union in Vienna, VA. Nice MM w/the rear OM spoiler!
Wish mine was washed!
He recognized me first and flashed his lights at a 4-way stop sign. Anyone on this site?
I also recommend LaMotta! They installed my headers (custom work!) while Dennis Reinhart was in town at their shop prepping some 'stangs for a show! Next best thing to Dennis w/o leaving O-town.
I am working in Fairfax, VA. We have our FL house for sale and I travel back/forth when I can. I have not changed my signature because I have not yet 'moved' to this area.
Good observation!
Sighted around 2 pm Saturday, 4/19 btwn Stringfellow Rd & Tuckaway Dr. Did a hand wave - but it was a divided hwy so I don't know if you saw me in my black MM.
OK - I gotta get this fixed ASAP. It's raining again!
Can anyone recommend a dealer/mechanic who can verify and replace (at a reasonable cost) my LCM and/or windshield washer motor?
I was posting on another forum (see the Garage, Lighting Control Module) re: my LCM/windshield wipers freaking...
Thanks for the info!
Looks like I may have two separate issues. I will need to investigate further.
This is why I love this site! The sharing of info and experiences here are invaluable. It's great having an extended family!
Potential LCM issue
I have been experiencing similar issues. At random times, my headlights will just come on and start to flicker on/off. I was diving from FL to VA and I must have scared several people in front of me as they were swerving to the right to get outta my way (cool trick, huh?)...
WAS - CAM meet
I voted 'maybe' - only because I travel back to FL on the weekends to help prepare my house for sale and see my family who will stay in FL until the sale is complete.
Looking forward to meeting the local gang!

I saw a rare blue MM in the Walmart parking lot of Fair Lakes Shopping area (Fairfax) on Friday, 1/4. I placed a 'MM card' (courtesy of one of our members on MM.net) on the driver's door window. I noticed a vanity tag, but can't remember what it was. As a newbie to the CAM area (a Sunshine State...
Which tires are Best...
Thanks for the great advice (even the humorous :))! I have two weeks to prepare for my move and I am feeling a little better about what to expect and how to get ready.
I'm looking forward to meeting another part of the extended MM family! Like Jon, it looks like we'll...
