    What IS a Marauder?

    As most of us proud Marauder owners have happen often are strangers approaching us at the filling station or grocery store to admire our rides. Most “pedestrians” do not know what a Marauder is. I always tell them to check out this site. However, upon thinking about it I realize that there is no information about what we are all about on our homepage! Really. I cannot find one single link on the homepage that tells the story of the Marauder. We are proud that our cars are not just Crown Vics with cool wheels. But the only true website for Marauder enthusiast has no general information to educate the public on what we are all about. Might I respectfully suggest that we place an easy to find link to something like “What is a Marauder” And simply tell the story from the first Marauders to our late model favorites. Include production numbers and the basic story that I found on wikipeda. Just a suggestion so please don’t beat me up too bad.
    My brother had asked me what was so special about my car, and why I spent so much money on it, and I had to send him to wiki instead of my favorite site..this one.
    Thank you for your consideration.

    I think your thoughts (Suggestion) is worthy of consideration.....and has a good point...........I know myself and fastblackmerc have spken many times than we can count that what he^has said about folks asking us at gas stations and wherever we are stopped--about our cars--is always going on----so a reference point of what we are so glued too should be at least put up for "go and see" --I kinda like the idea......anyone else.........

    I think because it's basically a "Limited Edition" and a specialty vehicle that it would be a great idea.
    If I gave a crap about gas mileage I would own a bicycle. With my luck I may have to go bike shopping tomorrow.

    Correction my estimate JUSTBOB Mang I will explain better for them Mix a Ford CrownVictoria a Mercury Grand Marquis and a Ford Mustang Mach1 and that is the result. This is the hybrid between three of the most top cars and you get the most Impressive,Aggresive,Massive,S tealthy,Intimidating,Menacing, Awesome, Sporty, Luxury, car of all times unfortunally by the fault of a lot of Idiots, stupids, , , ,, pseudo executives, publicity, merchant of FLM they stop the production of this Awesome car, Sad but true.

    Oh BTW...

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_Marauder

    We can just post this link in the homepage OR paraphrase it fit on the homepage so that "visitors" will know what a Mercury Marauder is.

    I dumb it down one more notch for em when I explain it.

    I usually say, "Imagine a Crown Vic, with a mustang cobra motor"

    then you see thier faces go from dumb, to "OOHHH", then to envy.

    I like the idea. A lot of us already know about it (I'm still learning, though), but it would be a good idea to have a "what is" on the home page.
