Honestly though, I feel kind of sorry for most of today's "young 'uns" who have never driven - nor will they ever drive - some of the big old tuna boats of the past. 1976 Oldsmobile 98 Regency, with everything from pillow-top seats to a massive V8 engine. I don't care who you are, that's a road trip just begging to be taken!
I don't mean to offend anyone, and there may be no real answer to this, but allow me to vent. Why do old people tend to drive the biggest cars?
You've seen them, waiting to pull out with a foot of the hood hanging out in the right of way, or spending so much of their precious time left in this world trying to get in or out of a parking spot. I mean, when my eyes start to loose depth perception and my reflexes and hand/eye coordination start to fail me, the first thing I'll do is get rid of my Cadillac DTS or my Crown Vic and get something with a better turning radius than the U.S.S. Wisconsin.
I'm just sayin'....
This has to be the funniest post I've read... You say old people spending so much of their precious time left in this world annoying you. Since you are probably not going to live as long as the people you're talking about... maybe if you could just relax and keep trying not to offend anyone.
Btw, old people drive those big cars because they have more money than young people.

You shouldn't assume that all older people have these afflictions. In fact, I know more YOUNG people (under 50) who are on "disability" for one thing or another and probably on five or ten medications who impair their ability to drive effectively.
Maybe older people like big cars because they are expensive and it's their way of saying...I can afford this... Can YOU? LOL
I thought I had told you this?? I want at least a 2006 because I like the steering wheel and gauge cluster much more. I'd really like to find a Signature L, but I know those are hard to come by. Other than that a Signature Limited, Designer Series, or Continental Edition will be good.
