Comfort with decent mileage - 2001 Lincoln Town Car
By Richard - May 29 - 2:03 pmI average about 17 miles a gallon. Comfort is the key word for my Touring Edition sedan. I can fit everything but 4x8 sheets of plywood in this trunk, which makes it great for my work. Had problems with the factory installed alarm system. Its been good to me, and I learned to do the repairs myself so Im looking at keeping it.

super gas mileage - 2001 Lincoln Town Car
By Ronald G. Jones - September 1 - 6:53 pmThis 2001 Greenbrier edition Signature series which we purchased new has been a good, economical and reliable car. On a trip to Rome, Ga from Chambersburg, PA, (all interstate and driving 60 MPH) we averaged 32 MPG. Several years ago while driving in the flatland of North Dakota we averaged nearly 34 MPG for several hundred miles and driving at 60 MPG and on cruise control. People assume that because it is a big car that it is a gas guzzler. Nothing could be further from the truth.

01 Sig TC after 2 yrs - 2001 Lincoln Town Car
By KJ - September 24 - 10:00 amThis is my 3rd TC, and I drove last 2 (84 & 92) over 150,000 miles. I get gas mileage of 27-28MPG on highway trips which is great, but I miss the power that get from my 95 Crown Vic w/performance and handling package (3.27 rear end and dual exhaust on same 4.6 engine-- that I am still driving with 184,000 miles on orig engine and trans!) I find the steering a bit numb on the highway, with car wandering a bit on Michelin Symmetry radials, and I preferred the ride on my 92 TC and my 95 Crown Vic. Local Dealerships have been great fixing problems, and it is a nice looking car, but I dont think Ill drive it as long as my other 2, or the Ford.

So - so - 2001 Lincoln Town Car
By Mike L - May 11 - 8:50 pmWe have had our Towncar for 3 years and it will be my retirement car. My wife and I really like the car with a few exceptions. We feel a lux. car like the Lincoln should have a softer leather. Ours has very hard leather which makes it somewhat uncomfortable on trips, slippery, stiff, etc.. My biggest objection with the car is the mushy ride and the way the car floats on corners. I had a Thunderbird before with 258K miles and I loved the handling package, made you feel like you had control of the car, not vice versa. I have a pickup that I drive 35000 mile a year and I feel safer with the handling than the Lincoln. Also had a bunch of intermittent electrical issues. But, still love the car.
