honestly, i would like to have both a park ave and the town car. both have their pros and cons, but both have that business look that i think looks nice.
I own both. Lincoln Town Car was by far a higher end car. Park was a top of line for Buick. I liked them both for different reasons. Both good American cars. 🇺🇸
True comparison should be a Cadillac Fleetwood vs Towncar.
i love my 02 silver park ave. i have the 1se package ultra with 250,000 miles. still going smooth. i want an ultra 2005 with the chrome grille
👍
Thanks for posting, I really miss the Park Avenue models. I was fortunate enough to have a 1999 and 2005. I really wish I had kept the last one..
I Have 05 Buick Avenue SE' Sliver & Black two tone' nice car with a really nice ride' really good on gas for a car of its size
I love Buicks, but I think a better comparison would be a Mercury Grand Marquis. Lincoln is more comparable to Cadillac imo.
LeSabre was matched with The Grand Marq but I feel as though the LeSabre would have been better matched with the Sable.
The Lincoln would wipe the floor with the Deville and its lemon Northstar engine. The Park Avenue was a better comparison
Right.
Or even the Chrysler 300.
The park Ave had more tech than the TC. Let’s not forget they had the park Ave ultra also.
I like that they didn't trash their competitor's product.
They really couldn't. The Town Car was the much better car. I still see them all the time on the road even today and they haven't been built in 14 years. That's a testament to how high quality they were. Park Avenue was a fine sedan, but the Town Car is a legend and still plentiful on the road for good reason.
Both are sorely missed in 2022. I have had a1985 Continental and 1996 Park Ave Ultra. The GM cars have less maintenance costs. I know I sold my 85 Conti with rear airbag costs. Picked up an 85 Buick LeSabre and could replace entire shock, struts for the cost of one airbag on my Lincoln.
Thats a bold video the Town Card true competitor is the Cadillac Fleetwood.
True. Lincoln and Cadillac competed for decades. Mercury was the Ford competitor to GM’s Buick and Oldsmobile. The grand Marquis was the main competitor to the Olds Ninety Eight and the Buick Electra/Park Avenue
Had a 03 all white Park Ave, miss my baby so much. Made my p rate shoot up 🤣🤣🤫
I still see Town Cars on the road every single day and they haven't built one in 14 years. I can't tell you the last time I saw a Park Avenue. That's really all you need to know about which is the better car. Park Avenue was a fine sedan, but the Town Car is a legend and still plentiful on the road for good reasons.
Panther platform vs Buick 3800 considered bullet proof. Obviously people preferred the Lincoln but it is erroneous to say it is better based on popularity. Is Taylor Swift a better musician than your favorite rock band?
They preferred it for good practical reasons. Individuals and livery companies bought and used the Town Car and not the Park Avenue because the TC was bigger, had rear-wheel drive, better quality leather, and a V8 engine that was every bit as bullet-proof as the 3800. You must not understand how markets and economics work. Consumers en masse don't buy inferior products when they have clear choices. iPhone beat Blackberry because iPhone was better. Town Car beat Park Avenue because Town Car was better. Its continuous presence on the road 14 years after the last one was built is a testament to its superiority.@@bluwng
I was in the limo business for years and drove town cars since 1979 . I would a Park Ave any day
Your statement was incomplete, are you saying you prefer the Lincoln or Buick?
@@bluwng Buick
@@frankcicero4444why ? most say town cars are better
Give me the 2004 Ultra with the 3.8 Supercharger engine
Inherited mine not long ago and was very pleasantly surprised at just how much I enjoy driving it.
@ScarletKnightAGK yea man they're smooth and a beast on power for how big it is. That SC kicks in and it has amazing get up. Plus depending on color...it looks sleek as hell...full of personality. They just don't make em like this anymore.
Funny the Britney Spears esque music in the background.
I have one it's great!
l have a gorgeous 2004 park avenue available for sale
113'000 was my late parent's.
$3'500
THESE are exquisite car's, very reliable
You gave it away at that price!😮
Damn A Ford...Wouldn't You Rather Have A Damn Buick...☝🏾💯🚘+
These are pretty reliable. I know someone who has one. The gas gauge and rear suspension is a continues problem with it.
The entire "fuel delivery system" is located under a trap door in the trunk. Very easy access and a quick fix to the gas gauge problem.
Comparing limousines taxis.
I have both and you can't even begin to compare an Ultra to a Lincoln Towncar. The Park Avenue Ultra is child's play compared to even a base model Towncar.
The Buick cant compete with the Lincoln.
It's a good car, but to say it's better than the TownCar is going to be a tough sell.
the town car wins hands down, it's been used for limo companies and the 4.6l v8 is a bulletproof engine that can last vertally forever.
howtobebasic 2 😂ill be passing you up in the snow this winter
I bought a 07 Town Car three years ago. Put 25,000 on it now. Not a peep out of her. Best used car I've ever owned.
The 3800's are also very much so in the same vain, they last forever. Only downside is the transmissions goes around 150,000-200,000 depending on maintenance.
Gas mileage is a lot better on them 3.8's, you can be in a boat and get 30+mpg, and still have good power. Those V8's are great, but they eat gas, and I'm sorry, a 4.6 putting out 250hp? Pathetic.
4.6L V8: **laughs in spitting out spark plugs**
Lincoln Isn't Reliable 😢
As much as I like the Park Ave, it's no doubt that the Town Car is a much better car as far as quality and reliability.
I like the buick but I do think the lincoln would make it to 200,000 miles cheaper then the Buick.
@@1voiceofstl noooo.. the 3800 is much more reliable.
Well geez, no wonder they didn't sell many of these park avenue`s... The salespeople were given so much false information, literally every section has false information.
Like what?? There were no lies told.
