    I just bought one with less miles about (113,500 rounding up), a month ago for 2450. The only thing wrong is I have to replace the condenser. (Has a small whole) other than that I love it.

    Love the 5.3 motor . The problem area is the dreaded 4 speed automatic and the suspension. The downfall in this gen. Get a 2012 and up with the newer designed automatic.

    My 08 Impala SS has only 54,000 miles and is in perfect condition as the only female owner I looked at this one and it is a disgrace to previous owner. Nothing has ever gone wrong with it and I still love the 5.3 L engine. I still have had the Onstar since 2008 that includes Directions and Connections. Any previous owner who did not take great care with it deserves to drive a Ford.

    • @ladyofmerced
      @ladyofmerced 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      By the way, I also own a 01 Chev Impala with 3.8L engine. She is my run about town on shopping days and has less than 74,000 miles. Love to drive her with the combination cassette and DVD player...Sunroof open with tan interior and bronze exterior. This engine purrs and the 08 growls. My previous baby was a 77 Chevy Corvette with an L82 . Hated to part with her but moving to Maine was a waste of car on those roads. Oh, yes, dude surveying that peace of junk is not even worth anyone time or money.
