Since I'm helping a friend with his ex-police car fleet of CVPIs he has at his workplace, I would say other than the infamous exploding gas tank, not really.

2100 is a decent deal for that year. Auction could either knock off 25% or go up 25%.
I'm looking to get a 2004 Impala next year.

i was looking for an impala (mostly cus as a winter beater i could use its AC in my grand prix) but around here they run about 1000-1200 more than a crown vic. as someone who has never had a ford im a little hesitant but after driving that car with that 4.6l WOW
only thing up here the licence bureau dings you 90$ more for the 4.6l "environmental charge"

Really? All the Impalas I saw for sale in yards in Ontario and everything were pretty reasonable price. Granted, I saw the most of them in Oshawa where of course is where the mothership is. Maybe you need to go to Ontario...

my domestic situation requires a small economical pickup.

|
Well, the Hilux is in a class on its own...its meant for a different kind person than the rest of Toyota's products.
|
|
yeah i wasnt sure if i was reading that right, but hey if im looking at a ford, samurai can look at a toyota!, hey if you put a chevy engine in a toyota does it become a toylet?

Please read before you buy.

Update it is the 1996-2001 that is effected. If you purchase one from those years make sure the intake manifold has already been replaced.
ps I still drive a panther platform,

The personal responsibility train left the station years ago, and you gave it the finger as you watched it leave. |

a friend of mine had an older Grand Marquis with the 4.6L in it and i remember one of the heater lines running THROUGH the engine (under the intake) to the heater core... and of course it started to leak. What a nightmare that was to fix.
