One dinosaur that's a long way from extinction.
From the April 1987 issue of Car and Driver.The Lincoln Town Car may be a brontosaurus in today's car market, but as recently as ten years ago it was the quintessential expression of the modern American car. Of course, not all American cars of the period were as expensive as the Lincoln, but most of them were designed and built very much like it. Their immense steel bodies were mounted with rubber isolators on steel-girder frames.
Further, the effort at the steering wheel bears no relation to the cornering exertions of the front tires. Progress on a highway requires a never-ending series of small corrections to herd the Town Car between the boundaries of a single lane. Otherwise, however, the big Lincoln's road manners are not bad at all. We expected it to bob and weave over large bumps, but its shock absorbers are firm enough to inhibit extraneous movement.
