You guys really need to drive one if you havent. They have a smooth ride like a CV, but slightly better handling. I'd say on par with a police interceptor CV. The 4v is very similar to a mach1, but i think it has the cam profiles from the lincoln aviator, to give it a bit more low end trq. it gets up to speed rather well and runs 90+ cruise speeds with ease.
I watched a maruader with a KB on it at the track run consistent low 12's on street tires, kicking sideways each run when it shifted into 2nd. The tranny is a 4r70w like in 99-04GT's, so it can be tuned to get alot more performance out of it.

I've driven a Maurader and I liked it a lot, but I really don't have any need for 4 doors even though my current ride has them. I've never opened the doors to the back seat yet.
Yeah, I'm old, but only my mustache is gray!

If it makes you feel any better, I'm younger than you (I'm 21) and I'm already losing my hair (a lot).

Then again not having hair has its advantages.... no combing, no cowlicks, no gray.
Baldness runs in my family (both sides) so its only a matter of time.

Funny thing is, nobody in my family was ever bald. My grandfather died in 2003 at age 78 and he wasn't bald.

I agree, They're very large, providing lots of space

I've always like the Marauder's but they're becoming more and attractive to me.
Here's a nice one. Not a bad price either for the mileage.

I like the marauder's also, I just wish Ford would of put the Navigator motor in it and set aside the Lightning motor as an option, then it would be insane!
