I sold Lincoln/Mercury in 1980 - 82. The `79 TownCar was about a football field long and the truck could hold 6-8 bodies (a big selling point for Unions and certain Italian families in NYC). The Japanese cars ate our lunch in the early 80's on anything other than the big cars. I remember people trading in the Lincoln or a Grand Marquis because of gas mileage but then came back 6 months later because they hated the ride and storage of a small car. They took a beating twice.

If you want to mock the `70's pull out some old photos of the clothes you wore.
Early 70s
