I have searched Craigslist and I found nothing that is in my area that I can afford or is even worth looking at..so I ask of you all..do any of you have or know where i would be able to land a cheap reliable low mileage(under 200,000 miles)older sedan like an LTD,crown Vic,Taurus,or buick of some sort?I'm not that picky as long as it isn't rusted to shit and as long as it's not a royal rolling turd.I'll even partial trade my truck.I need something ASAP so I can go back to work for this new company about 15 minutes or so away

and where are you?
i know a guy who has a WHOLE FLEET of Crown Vic cop cars and a couple of detective Tauruses for sale... here in Northern New York.

I'm in southeast michigan..i once lived in nny

It's worth a trip to the south to get rust free vehicles on the cheap.

Western NC, eastern TN, northern GA and northern AL... stay away from cars right on the coast. Salt from the ocean corrodes pretty bad too.

True. Though I would stay away from western NC. Seen some serious rust there as they use salt and don't have a clue just how much to use. 2"'s of snow? A thousand tons a mile should work.

200,000 (low mileage ) interesting.

Boyfriend and I are from the same area as you, so we can keep an eye out. We are often browsing CL and the local lots for deals or interesting finds.

A few questions:

-- Do you prefer manual or automatic?
-- Year range?
-- Brand preference?
-- Any must-have options?
-- Price range?

Did a quick search for you, here's a few luxo-barges we found:

May or may not be what you were after, but seemed like decent deals.
