I'm not sure why anyone would think this is some kind of contest. The Caprice runs and drives. I need to put a battery in it, but, um...that's not really a big deal. I haven't wanted to spend the money, because I hope they'll come back down in price. (Keep dreaming!) It certainly didn't have a major breakdown like this truck did...

Full time work, I know how that goes (I mess with machines in a factory, which is terrifying because I’m pretty sure they know algebra.. I don’t much care for algebra myself). I’ll definitely stay tuned in for the next video on the subject because this sounds like it’s gonna be a fairly involved brake job. Sounds like there’s a thing or twelve for us all to learn along the way (I do recall at one point needing to replace a parking brake cable, but it was on a 1994 Buick LeSabre Custom so, it was nowhere near as involved to string a new cable).

I used to love the 1996 GMC Suburban K2500 the blue one with tan accent, it has a sweet ride, it was in Florida one time, and then they traded in with POS 2010 Ford Flex AWD SEL, and I was disappointed, and the condition is getting worse and later traded in with 2016 Nissan Frontier Pro-4X, and it was nice truck. On the other hand, I really missed the 1996 GMC Suburban K2500 that drives like a truck and rides like a truck, although it just worn-out. And yes, it was not that simple to replace the parking brake cable as I can imagine. But who knows that it might be a way to look up the schematics and see how to replace the parking brake cable and amongst other things. I don't know that you saw the video that the YT user had a video including the retired military 1994 GMC Suburban. It was really cool look.

Wow how time flies! I remember when you first got the 2010 and I believe at that point it had 25,000 miles on it. I love these Panther cars, I think it was a big mistake on Fords part to stop building them. My town still has one Crown Vic police car, and I think it's still the best one they have, though it is rarely used. I told the police chief they should ditch the Explorers and put a Crown Vic on a 4x4 F-150 frame and you would have the best of both worlds.

I know brake jobs hardly tend to vary from one t'other, but I'd tune into that video if/when it comes along. Couldn't tell ya why, but ever since I had to do the pads and rotors on my Pontiac G6 way back in the day (feels weird saying that about 2017), that's been one of those subjects that I'd watch just for the hell of it (might be a weird idea of entertainment from me, but hey, got me to learn all about drum brakes even though I've never encountered those in real life).

Wow, that's a nice car! I've always liked the looks of these, and of course the legendary reliability. I even wanted one myself, but I ended up with a little Ford Escape of the same era (2001-2012) instead. I do hope someday, if the opportunity presents itself, I can get my hands on a Panther platform in nice shape like yours. But with all the road salt around here, they are sadly getting to be a rare sight now.

This one is also much more nicely equipped in most regards than the Keykeeper's 2010: both front seats are power operated, it has the CD/tape combo radio with RDS (something that to my amazement the CD-only radio in the 2010 totally lacks), adjustable pedals, there's a compass and a built in garage door opener controller. It doesn't have the air ride and the cluster is very basic (maybe all the 2003s had a very basic cluster). How nice it would have been if Ford had kept the Panther cars in production, someone said "let's make an electric version of this" _and_ such actually came to market. If that had happened, you'd be looking at the *one* electric car I'd ever consider buying, because I want nothing to do with these buggy, insecure, poorly engineered "video game" cars of today. When the size of a touchscreen is a selling point in any car, there's been a serious wrong turn made somewhere. The sooner those godawful and dangerous things are gone, the better. Okay, I'm off to get my Geezertrol pills and then I'll be better.

I hear ya.. I actually put a Ford "Audiophile" radio in my 2007... had some Sony single-din I couldn't see or work by feel, so I junked it. Mine has the factory sub too.. RARE option. No air ride on mine either, as part of the Palm Beach package.. but that same package DOES add side airbags!

@AricVogelАй бұрын
Years ago I purchased a CD/tape combo radio from a Panther vehicle of this era to replace a failed factory radio in my 1993 Ford Taurus, and I was amazed with the quality of it. It sounded great, and the RDS was very nice to have as well. Sadly, it seems my local radio stations have stopped broadcasting RDS data for some unfathomable reason. I have to admit the idea of an electric Panther car had not crossed my mind, but now that you mention it that may be a really cool idea. Like a super simple, ultra reliable electric car without any of the bloated software and over-the-air updates that leave your vehicle undrivable. They kind of came close with the electric F150, by making an electric car that doesn't look completely stupid, but unfortunately (AFAIK) it still has a mandatory gigantic tablet screen and buggy software. A small touchscreen with some basic navigation, radio, and Bluetooth handsfree functions is OK in my opinion, but I can't stand this gigantic tablet screen trend. Especially when all the HVAC controls are buried in touchscreen menus, I agree it's ridiculous and downright dangerous.
@uxwbillАй бұрын
@@AricVogel Maybe you've already thought of this, but it might be worth checking to make sure the RDS option is still on. Ford, possibly thinking of what might happen with a station having a broken RDS signal, defaulted the option to off with this and many other radios from the same time frame. I don't know if the setting is nonvolatile, so if your radio lost backup power... I don't suppose most people even care or notice the presence of R(B)DS decoding in their radio. I've certainly noticed many stations not paying much if any attention to it. One station that I listen to fairly often wasn't broadcasting it for months. Now they are, but they are using the European (or "International") PTY settings. As further proof that I'm a hopeless display nerd of some kind, the AM/FM/CD radio has the complete set of sixteen segment characters and RDS indicators, yet the firmware doesn't enable them. It "pains" me how that display is just wasted! (At least it shows various radio operation messages.) I have seen some vehicles ordered for fleets or in lower trim levels that have only the tiniest touch screen. I've also noticed that the currently produced Ford E-series chassis cab models have a "shaft style" radio with a small color non-touch display. I'd love to see that in something else! As things are now, I think the only vehicle I could tolerate buying brand new would be the Chevrolet Express. Nothing's cheap, though, so Naughty Truck and I keep on cruising along... Along this same vein of hating on modern cars, I absolutely despise the lack of headroom in any of them. I'm 6'2" tall and more than a little bored with almost having to break my neck to get in and then to sit there with my head firmly pressed into the headliner.
