Not really. Cars have crumple zones in the front and none (at least none compared to the front) in the back. I have been involved in two crashes (never in my LS) one where someone hit me in the back and my car had no damage at all and their car was completely totaled and one where I hit someone...

Thanks!

Why are there so many people on this board who can't stand any of the cars on the board? Are there no Chevy Aveo messageboards or whatever it is that you guys are happy about out there on the internet? Your only choice in car forums is a Cadillac/Lincoln forum where all the cars make you...

I am really surprised that anyone here knew who Buckethead is! Ha.

That dog was so fat! And man, that guy was really enthusiastic and excited for just having been in a car wreck. "Hey ma! Look it, I'm on the TV box!" I'm glad he wasn't hurt, but man was he ever dazzled by the idea of being on TV. The car took it pretty well, though. Of course it would have...

TDUB - Thanks! I wasn't too fond of the "pewter" color exterior, but then it really grew on me after a while. And when you say the words "black leather interior" in Texas people raise their eyebrows and wonder if you drive something else in the summer. Ha. It does get hot, but I love it the car...

Fine! I didn't really want to say hi to you guys anyway! I only did it 'cuz my mom made me, so there. Ha.

I realize this is really old and I'm not sure how nice people on this forum usually are, but on other forums I have been on people usually ignore PS requests because PS work is something that people get paid a lot of money for a lot of people are annoyed by people just assuming that they enjoy...

Yeah. I meant to say 87, 89 and 93. I don't have a number oriented mind. Ha. So even numbers that I see every week of my life I can forget easily.

^ I have always found this to be true. Anytime I ever get pulled over I just agree with the cops as much as possible and tell the truth when they ask "Why do you think I stopped you?"

Well, maybe "controversy" was the wrong word. I just meant that there is much disagreement and heated shouting everywhere you go on the web reading about gasoline. But I guess that is probably every car that "requires" high octane fuel. Penny wise and pound foolish is probably a great way to...

It's like someone put a little work into making over the old Bobcat station wagon my mom used to drive. Ha.

I don't think you need to use premium. The manual recommends 91, which is not available where I live and I have been told by a few people that the 83 or 87 is just fine, but I just use the premium because it makes me feel better. Ha. I am sort of OCD and like to worry and panic over nonsense. I...

I figured I should introduce myself! I actually found out about this forum while watching YouTube videos and someone had posted videos of one of your meet-ups and I thought, "That might be an interesting forum to join!" I have an '06 Lincoln LS V8. I live just north of Houston, Texas and we...

I honestly don't get the horrible gas mileage that I thought I would be getting in this thing (this thing being the '06 V8). I am not wealthy, I have a really long commute and I use premium fuel and I am still not breaking the bank putting gas in the V8. I drive about thirty miles every day one...
