      @@ElseasWorld This one is more fun to some of us who has 3 of these vehicles. 😂 They're more obtainable for the masses. I just got done getting the 1995 LS 400 running again after 2 years of sitting. Got it running in like 3 hours and drove it from Cocoa beach to Orlando with the only issue being the battery is going out and I can't run a bunch of electronics. Also have a 1999 and 2000 LS 400. 99 needs a brake booster and master that I'm not looking forward to doing and the 2000 has been running good! 😂
