> I call bs on the crown vic getting 30 mpg, too. My parents hasve a 1995 Grand Marquis & a 1999 Grand Marquis (both same cars as the crown vic). The '95 gets 17 mpg around town & will smoke the '99 (I used the '95 about 2 years ago for a month when my DD was totalled by a deadbeat & was waiting for my ins check - I got 16-17 mpg “combined” driving, mostly city, though). My dad says the '99 is a dog & only gets 13-14 mpg.
