Excuse me.... What direction do you think Obamaland is headed? 
It won't be long before you see a federal tax on state license plates. And on everything else that isn't currently taxed for that matter.

It is absolutely filthy right now, hasn't been washed or dryed in months. I will post some better images when it gets a bath. It's a 2011 model, the last year Crown Victoria was manufactured.
Someday I hope to check the VIN and see how it ranks in production, it might be the fifth one from the last produced. The last one produced was a white LX model. All of the assembly line workers signed it with a black permanent marker, it will be worth a fortune someday.

My eldest Son has been asking me to buy one for years - We've only been in one once, I was on a RV site in Texas and had to get to the airport so called for a taxi - and to my suprise (and my Son) a black Crown Victoria pulled up with a smartly dressed driver - we loved it and asked the driver to floor it so we could hear her roar
and since that day everytime he sees one in a movie he reminds me that I still haven't bought one!!!

It's got to the ridiculous stage here, and if you don't laugh about it and do your best, you'd go crazy..........I even received a letter this week informing me that if a radio is on in a work place, and employees or customers can hear it, tax needs to be paid for it each year..................I filed it
On the flip side, it makes it even more fun owning an Excursion as I definately do not conform (just don't tell anyone that I have it for a use)

I didn't know they stopped making it!!! It's one of those cars that I've grown up seeing in movies and loved the look and sound of My eldest Son has been asking me to buy one for years - We've only been in one once, I was on a RV site in Texas and had to get to the airport so called for a taxi - and to my suprise (and my Son) a black Crown Victoria pulled up with a smartly dressed driver - we loved it and asked the driver to floor it so we could hear her roar and since that day everytime he sees one in a movie he reminds me that I still haven't bought one!!!

The large rear wheel drive V-8 full frame Crown Victoria is gone forever I'm afraid.

I was thinking of something for the "new" supercharged Ex, but havn't come up with anything real good yet... Before that I has thought of SUBMRN or MMCMSS
or even BULNUK, but I just didn't think I'd like them for the long run...
BUBLHED is great!

No worries mate... Things here are moving in that direction. We too now pay for a family that thinks it's royalty, lives on the taxpayer dime, yet doesn't accomplish anything other than dream up stupid ideas on how great the world would be if everyone listened to them.
to Hawaii for Christmas. On the taxpayer's dime as well.
and 25 couples come back up!

Yeah, they quit making them. I doubt you can find a brand new Crown Victoria left on any dealership lot now. But you can still get an extremely good deal on a 2011 with low mileage, almost every dealer in the USA has a few because the rental agencies are turning them in now nationwide. You can find them in white, black, Norsea blue (medium blue), silver and burgundy. Basically, a $34,000 car for $14,000 to $15,000 now. But of course I don't know how much your import taxes or fees would be.
