    Hoover, that was a really sweet thing you did for that guy. Decades ago, someone did something like that for me. I was down, hurt, out, and someone "willed" me a car. I didn't care that it was 20+ years old; it ran well, it looked okay, it was dependable and I NEVER FORGOT the generous grace that was bestowed upon me that day. It allowed me to get through the entire year and more. Honestly, my eyes welled up because I know PRECISELY what that man was feeling. It wasn't much to my benefactor, and maybe it wasn't much to you, but it was EVERYTHING to that man and to ME.

    I would love to see a classic land yacht revived but in a way Hoovie describes: a Caprice Classic, Roadmaster, Crown Victoria, Diplomat, you name it. RWD, V8, soft touring suspension for ride quality, and a price point that a common person can go buy! I work with police officers daily, and it’s amazing how many still love the Crown Victoria over the Chargers that have taken their place. They like the power of the 5.7 Hemi but that’s about it. Crown Vics rode better, had more room, and had a way lower cost of ownership for the Sheriff’s Department.

      It was a nice gesture, but I think that it's better to give him a temporary job during this hard time. It was clear that what he needed was a steady income at the moment. Buying him the car and equipments would not help him pay for food, electricity bills, rent, etc. If he doesn't have a steady income, he would ended up selling everything again.
      Tyler should hire him to help out with the camera and editing. Logan would get a more steady income for some time and Tyler would have more time to spend with his family. It's a win-win.

I already own a subcompact diesel 2003 Fiesta and a city car 1999 Ford Ka, these made me a Ford guy, in a different sense compared to Americans. And I still ADORE the land yatchs, i just like the complete opposite side of the spectrum.

      @@joshuamcpeek4708 LOL! That 3.8 is bullet proof! Do you know why? I'm sure you do, it's a chopped 318 block! It's a push rod motor. I'd trade horsepower/ performance for reliability any day of the week and that's what you get with that motor. Back in the day, our families shop took care of a few bank and municipal fleets. Those van motors would easily go 300-500K mis before blowing up. But, as you describe above the body, and fit/finish wasn't designed to do the same. Fun Fact, in our fleet we have a 99 Ford with the first gen 5.4. That 5.4 has over 560K mi' on it with 1 transmission replacement at 400K or so. I bring this up because Ford then went and redesigned the motor in early 2001, installed it in trucks late 2002, and those motors won't even go 100K without issue. Chrysler always got an engine right and then stopped messing with it. When I was a kid, my first car was a 66 Chrysler product and other than finding a good alternator wouldn't die, no matter how hard I drove it. To me, the top 5 motors ever produced were the Chrysler 225, Ford 4.6, Buick 3.8, Chrysler 440/383, Ford 7.3 Diesel, and Chevrolet 350 (just due to generic and cheep not reliability). I've never owned a rig with the 3.8 Chrysler engine simply because in the late 80's through the early 2000's I drove jap crap and pickup trucks. Today, I just drive my beat up 2000, Ford, 7.3 diesel with over 300K. I can still work on that truck without any special tools or readers. So, that's why. And, I'm retired and frankly, don't give a crap about what people thing about me any more! LOL. One thing getting old allows.

      @@chuckhaugan4970 dear lord I'm glad my chrysler didn't come with the mitsu-bitchey 3.0, that motor had a timing belt and the valve seats often weren't properly thermoset (the valve seats are supposed to be refrigerated and once in place they expand and fit firmly) in the 3.0 these seats would dead ass FALL OUT sometimes landing on top of the piston crowns.

    I came to Massachusetts in 1999 for a one and a half year stay. In the first week i bought a used black 85 Mercury Grand Marquis to be my daily driver. I did many road trips, down to Florida, up to Canada and all along the east coast. I so loved the comfort of the Grand Marquis. Never a problem with the car. Being from Europe, it was simply wonderful to experience "american luxury". Seeing the Marquis in this video, brought back so many wonderful memories. And for that, i want to thank you!

      I had a 1989 which I believe had slightly more horsepower than his, and also I prefer the 'updated' interior in the 1989 substantially. I got that car like 13 years ago, it was old lady owned with just over 30k miles, the entire car in mint showroom condition. Unfortunately i didn't own it that long, and it got totaled out by the ins. company after I got into a wreck. That's definitely the most upsetting car loss I've ever experienced, I had a nice stereo in it and everything.
      But as for the power, it was actually quite good! The hp numbers pretty low, but it had a lot of torque. I've owned 7 american luxury cars between the years 1984 and 1994. An olds, 2 mercury's, and 4 caddy's, including my current 94 fleetwood. Only one I'm still really missing is a town car.

    Cool video! Nice gifting of the Chrysler!
    Back when the Roadmaster was new, my boss bought an Impala SS. There was a retired woman that lived across the street from the shop. She bought a Roadmaster and called over to us to come see her new car. She was so proud. My boss about wanted to cry when we opened the hood and saw the same engine as in his 'hot rod'. We broke his balls relentlessly. I miss that guy now. He helped me in many ways.

    All super cool. Love full size 4 door sedans. I think of “land yachts” as full size sedans from the late 60’s early 70’s. That Buick is close, but the other two were so down sized from their predecessors. Those did still float like yachts with that Blvd ride. I love my 72 Dodge Polara and 69 Galaxie 500. Both are 4 door and barely fit in some spaces.

I started traveling a lot more for work and unfortunately I sold it off to get a Chrysler 300 that would be more modern and help with the travels. But gosh do I miss my Fifth Avenue. It was truly a ride like no other car made today can produce. This video brought back so much joy of seeing it again in all it’s glory.
