Great video, even if the audio is all just music--though very good stuff 
I'm also jealous of your gas mileage...also a tank, but better than mine! |
Yeah, I'll do it every now and then. I was heading back and the sky showed just the slightest bit of light left from the sun, so I thought it would be cool.
The music wasn't all that loud at all... but... thats all you hear normally
Engine noise while crusing is non-existant, there is wind noise around the windows, but with the radio turned up low-medium volume you no longer hear it... actually in the video as the speed passes 85 or so I think you can hear the engine rev a bit. 80-100mph runs isn't exactly what the Town Car was made to do, so it is a bit sluggish, although that was going uphill too. then 108 rolls around and the speed limiter has its turn. I've got no reason to go any faster tho.
About the gas mileage tho, I thought the LT1 Fleetwoods got decent mileage? if not better then the Town Car, atleast thats what I've heard before. However when set to a more resonable speed, the car can do some pretty neat things... dosen't happen all the time tho, still can't figure why, but it'll be within 2mpg...
I know I had better videos, dunno where they went tho... ah well maybe I'll get more someday
I think the 4.6 sounds pretty good, factory true dual exhaust from the manifolds back. In the past I thought about getting some aftermarket mufflers, but eh it has a nice tone on acceleration then quiet when driving, plus it's hard to beat a factory exhaust system for durability, and there is no rust here. I like it just the way it is
Not really that long, I guess 0-40ish? ah well...
