The trip odometer has probably stopped working due to split gears these older plastic gears break easily if you try to reset them whilst the vehicle is moving.😑 They are an easy fix for us old retired instrument techs! A great car that proves that they built them to last when these were made. Good luck with the bidding Bill.🙂👍💓
Those with the 302 and especially the later 302 with fuel injection were deceptively quick. You could put away a lot of those so called "hot hatchbacks." The ones with the 4.2 though were slugs.
Great and Beautiful Car! Unfortunately, this car will always be undervalued by the latest model Crown Victoria Police Car, and Civilian version because Plastic Fantastic will never go away!
Ok the reason the trip odometer is not working is because of what you just did in the video. If you know anything about those older trip odometers, they have very fragile gears and you're NOT supposed to push the reset button while the car is moving. You only want to reset the trip odometer when the car is stationary. The previous owner probably broke it via the same way you are doing in this video.
Give me a call at the dealership, 843 294 7777. I won't be back there until Sunday at 1pm, or you can email, compvett@aol.com Look forward to speaking to you!

Very reliable. My dad had an '86. What a tank. Full power and leather. Total attorney car.
Nice!
Those cars are very dependable they can last so long if you take care of them
Absolutely!

OMG they sold so many! What happen to the market where nobody wants cars like this anymore???

I was told to NEVER hit the trip odometer while the car was moving!

You are correct!
Beautiful car and I love the way it sounds, great video!!
Super smooth
Matlock approved 😁
Lol
Very nice car, no chrome bumpers after this generation Crown Vic
Correct!
Great car, just like a Marquis.
Yes!
Marquis' twin brother.
true! @@user-yc2oz8kc5k

Well if one should set a bar, it could be this car!
Looks like it was indeed this car. @@christianbugatticg
It did well! @@erikfisher16
When you do the power windows, do the full cycle please. Thanks a bunch.
Ok
Is the color Pastel Alabaster ? I have a 1991 Crown Victoria Wagon in that same color, great car with only 14,000.0 miles since a 2020 restoration.
It is called, Medium Alabaster!

Yes, now I know that! I do appreciate the tip!
I think you have to set the trip odometer before you start out? The car can't be moving? My guess.
I have heard something similar
