    Tired of driving what every soccer mom in town has (expedition) found this 1 owner beauty in IL. 94 year old man bought it new, had every service record including window sticker ($18750 new) serviced it very regularly, and didn't drive it in the snow. 1989 Country Squire 110000 miles.

    After I had paid him, before the car was shipped to me he took it out for 1 last ride and noticed it had a slight hesitation so he went and got it tuned up - $275

    Welcome aboard Darin. That is indeed a classy and clean looking car. It's fantastic the previous owner took it to get a tune up before it shipped out. You don't find folks like that much anymore.
    I'm looking forward to hearing more about the car and the adventures it takes you on.

    Welcome fellow Georgian! That's a very nice Squire you've got. A personal favorite for a classic family car, 1989 being the last year before airbags so the kiddies can ride up front with you. However, with those rear seats that may be a lost cause! lol
