It feels big boat like and isolated from the road.
First you said it rides and handles better than a Town Car. Now you say it is like a Town Car.

Do you know what you're talking about?

Pete, I was quite clear in comparison to the E60 the F10 reminds me of a Town Car.
I made it bigger so you can see it. , does the old age feeling of driving a F10 impact your eye sight?

All I know is I test drove the F10 550 and loved it, but I drove one that was LOADED!!!! My goal is for my next car to be a V-8, whether it's a 550 or the new M5 if I can swing it, and the kits they are already making (see my Hamann kit thread) make it all the more desirable to me.

You admitted it yourself earlier that the F10 rides and handles better than the Town Car, so by your own admission then clearly it is NOT a Town Car.

However, now you emphatically say that it is.


You talk about my eyesight, but I think you have Alzheimer's from driving around in an "old" E60.


Here's a toast to you, Diamond, and all future Trolls out there:

I'm really on no one's side here, but the statement that the F10 "reminds" him of a Town Car implies that it is in some way similar (probably that it feels large), NOT that it is 'the same as' a Town Car.

Nice sentence structure there, Bubba. Who taught you to write, Forrest Gump?
