    My Crown Vic may have drowned.

    I left the Vic on the lower level of the parking garage at the Louisville airport and have been advised that several rows of cars were under water from the rain storm yesterday. They are assessing all damaged cars and will get back to me. I'm on the road and there is nothing I can do. I'm sick over this.
    If I gave a crap about gas mileage I would own a bicycle. With my luck I may have to go bike shopping tomorrow.

    Sorry to hear.
    At least your Marauder was not affected.

    That is a shame. Keep us posted on this, please.

    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    Thanks Guys. I sent Charlie a PM on the location. I think it was a higher area but can't remember for sure. If anyone is in the area the car was located at the entrance on the lower level parked in the northwest corner. I can't get the guy from the airport authority to call me back. I'm hoping for the best.

    I picked the car up today and the water line in the parking garage was nowhere near my car. The terminal lower level looked to have had up to two feet of water inside looking at the water mark on the walls. They were still towing out cars when I left but you couldn't tell by looking which ones were actually damaged. I talked to the airport authority and they said there were a lot of people that couldn't be reached and had no idea what had happen to their car. They wouldn't say how many were damaged.
    If I gave a crap about gas mileage I would own a bicycle. With my luck I may have to go bike shopping tomorrow.
