LOL I an going to have to do some belt tightening... look what I bought!!!
Power EVERYTHING! the seats reclining is even freaken power!! comes with an electronic key to unlock it and it has leather seats and climate control and so on and so forth... got a GREAT deal on it and paid cash for it... but it was about 500-1000 dollars more than what I was planning on spending.. soo...
I am going to have to find some hours working some where or SOMETHING to make up the difference before our funds run out.. haha

That is a beautiful Chrysler, and that is the last good luxury car which Chrysler made to date. I love the look of your car, and if Chrysler made a vehicle like that now I would definitely consider buying. No question your model is a comfortable one, and I am sure having all the luxury features is a nice touch!
I am from Chicago, and when it comes to potholes I very much feel your pain! Your vehicle can definitely do well on the potholes as long as you do not gun it going over one. The most you probably would have to do on your car is change the shocks periodically, but your Chrysler should have an otherwise smooth ride.
Yeah, having a garage would be nice, but I suppose you can always get a car cover if you want to keep the car looking nice.
The colour of your car is one of my favourites on your model as it gives the car such an elegant look. Your car is great, and you are so lucky to have that model!

yeah.. it's now odd to ride in other cars over bumps because the suspension is so fluffy in this car.. feels like I am driving over pillows when I DO go over a bump.. heh.. yeah I may get a cover .. I park it on the shady side of the building and the parking garage when I can for now...
I actually like the black ones of this model.. look like mini limos.. you dont see many around .. I think since I have owned it I have only seen 3 other LHS's

Oh yeah, no question the ride of this car is really soft, and the suspension on it is pretty good for a Chrysler. I like your car so much better than its replacement the Chrysler 300 as your vehicle looks the old Chrysler luxury cars of the 1970s. Your car is a very spacious, and it really is an overall nice car to drive.
A car cover would make a big difference especiallly on those hot summer days.
Does your car have leather or cloth seats?
I agree that the black in your car makes it really look beautiful along with whitewall tires. With that being said when I do see Chrysler New Yorkers/LHSs such as yours floating around they are generally the colour of your car. I guess green must have been the colour of that year. I do not see many LHS/New Yorkers around anymore which is too bad as they are good cars.
You made a great choice in terms of your purchase as your Chrysler is a very distinctive looking vehicle.

Leather interior is the best, and once you have leather it is hard to go back to cloth! Chances are your car has tan leather in light of the green exterior.
Cars like your Chrysler are great daily drivers or for long trips as they are so comfortable. It is great that you managed to get your Chrysler for such a low price, and my guess in light of all the problems Chrysler has been having getting a really nice luxury model for less than its worth is not too hard nowadays.
Buicks are the best, and you have great tastes in cars!
I like Pirelli tires as they are really dependable. You should not have any issues with tires on your car especially with such a nice brand on it.

yeah my old one was an 88 lesabre custom
engine in that thing was AWESOME... never had Any problems EVER with the engine... soo much power..
red interior.. unfortunatly it was a 21 year old Minnesota car... sooo.. the rust had gotten the better of it before I even had bought it.. I litterally drove it until the subframe collapsed.. engine still worked even after it "fell" to the ground...
but the steering/suspension cannot compare to this chrysler.. although the Buick DID have more get up and go power..
that big heavy 80's boat still got like 27 highway... this thing gets that highway but city I am only averaging around 15-16ish..

Those old Buick LeSabres were nice cars, and it says a lot that the vehicle lasted for over twenty years which is not a small thing especially if the car was up in Minnesota where the salt and snow attacks vehicles like no one's business. I totally agree that the engines and other parts on Buicks are excellent, and Buick was one of the few General Motors divisions to actually uphold quality despite the problems in other divisions. I know I would not be hesitant to ever get into a Buick, and the LeSabre's replacement, the Lucerne, is a very nice car.
Did your Buick LeSabre have a clam shell hood where it opened up backwards unlike a standard car? I remember Buicks of that time did make a couple of cars such as the Electra/Park Avenue with clamshell hoods.
Wow, that is great that the engine on your old LeSabre was fine even after it basically fell out of the car due to rust. I sure hope you at least had gotten a fair price for the engine when you disposed of the car. Buicks generally have pretty good power, and I think Chrysler cars can be underpowered depending on the kind of engines they stick in their cars.
That is amazing that you had gotten 27 highway on your old Buick! Considering how much steel was on that thing that is a very impressive record indeed! Buicks were on the top of the game when it came to fuel efficiency as I believe that division really had good fuel injectors.
That is too bad that your Chrysler only gets 15/16 city. Have you cleaned your fuel injectors and changed your air filter lately? Also, changing your fuel filter might help out with fuel economy.
Well, considering the size of your Chrysler I think your fuel economy is pretty decent, and at least you get a lot of luxury and just have to use 87 octane fuel.

the Buick just had a hard top
Looked like this (this one is not mine)

yeah not sure what the Chrysler's problem is.. about due for an oil change.. so I just may go ahead and do everything including the filters... Sometimes feels like the break is partially engaged like on a bicycle.. I have no idea if that is possible.. but I need to look into it... also kinda surges around right turns... a few small problems..but overall it has run pretty great..
the manual recommends at least 89

Also I got nothing for it..
I live in an apartment and sadly they wanted it gone and I had to just give it up to the salvage guy for like 50 bucks.. I totally got ripped off.. it had nice tires.. a working engine and transmission.. only thing that was bad was the subframe/body everything under the hood was great and the interior was PERFECT

As for your Buick, that was a sweet car, and those were my favourite body style of the LeSabres! I especially like the T-type LeSabres made around that time as those were so sporty looking. I love hard tops as those things are the best! It is too bad that you had to part with a very good functioning car for only $50. Do you have auto salvagers in your area who would come out and pick up your car for you and give you fair market value? Based upon what I have seen with our Gearheadfur friends it seems like they could easily rebuild your Buick, and I am guessing that the scrap person who took the car off of your hands really made a good deal. It is too bad that you did not donate the car at least so that you could have gotten a tax write off as I am sure you would have at least made a decent profit that way.
Yeah, if you have not changed your air, fuel, and oil filters in a while, then you really should get those done. I know what you mean about your brakes as I remember having that problem on an old Chevrolet that my family used to own. As it turned out General Motors was supplied with faulty calipers that year, and owners of GM vehicles made with those calipers received money from a class action lawsuit with my family being included. I would check to make sure that your brake system be it your brake fluid, rotors, and brake shoes are all right as all of those things might be at the root of your problem.
As for the surges you are having I sure hope Toyota did not make the engine in your car! Seriously, you might want to make sure your fuel injectors are clean and that your spark plugs and the corresponding wires are all right. While those things will not cause surges sometimes cleaning or replacing those things can help. Also, in a lot of cars a varnish buildup can develop somewhere by the part of the engine that handles acceleration which causes hesitation or things to stick. There is a service that can clean out those things.
I would definitely stay away from a Jiffy Lube or quick lube place that performs such services as they work too fast and are often not trained the best when it comes to such types of jobs. I have had a car badly messed up by such places, and I would never trust them again with such important jobs. If the dealers in your area are price competitive, then I would see if the area Chrysler-Dodge dealers offer packages which include a bunch of things for a flat rate. If the dealers in your area are not very honest or trustworthy, then shop around for a trusted mechanic to do the routine services mentioned above as doing those things can really prolong the life of a car. Things like changing anti-freeze, brake fluids, filters, cleaning fuel injectors, and servicing brakes may seem small, but keeping up with those things really can prevent big problems later on. It would be ideal if you register your car with Chrysler at https://www.chrysler.com/hostb/cros.....and/owners/en/ as that can go a long way to ensuring that you are notified of any recalls or problems especially if you car has had multiple owners and Chrysler needs to track down the current owner. If it were not for the GM owner's centre, then there is no way I would have found out about recalls or been notified of lawsuits in a timely manner.
That is interesting that your car runs on 89 as I would have had it figured for 87. Well, hopefully, 89 is available in your area and is not too much more expensive than 87.

the next closest salvage is 2 hours from here (other than the one who ripped me off) and I couldnt afford to tow the car myself at the time..it just had to be gone that week.. it sucks..
have AAA now.. heh..
yeah.. I get nervous having places like Walmart and Jiffy Lube do it because they are so quick about it.. one time I had my Buick done at a Walmart and I asked for/paid for cold weather washer fluid..then when I got driving in a snowstorm in Minnesota the stuff froze up on me.. grr.. plus they usually spill and make a mess...
BUT... I would trust even Walmart over most dealers around here...stinken sharks.. heh...
Actually the place I bought the car from has a great deal.. but.. they are over an hour away.. soo.. it would be cheaper to find somewhere in town...
yeah 89 is usually only a couple cents more... one of the first times I put gas in it I pulled up to the wrong side (the gas flap is on the passenger and on the buick it was the drivers side) and then I put 87 in it... it ran ok.. but it seems to run a bit more smooth with the 89.. plus it is written on the inside of the gas flap.. so ever since then I have done 89
I can do MOST of the fluids and the air filters myself... but I have never done my own oil change/ oil filter.. sooo I will probably just pay somebody.. cheap enough anywho...
you sure do know a lot about cars! haha.. what do you drive again? Do you work on them?

Yeah, being a part of a motor club is a must for any car owner, and I would never own a car without being a part of one. Sadly, motors clubs are becoming harder by which to come as a lot of the gas stations which used to offer motor clubs are out of that business. About the only gas station which still offers a motor club is BP Amoco alongside folks like Allstate, AAA, and a couple of others.
As for car salvaging I know there were a couple of places in my area who picked up the car from your home for cash. Also, the car charities are good deals as they generally pick up cars from one's home, too, and they give you a receipt for the value of the car. The only thing with donating one's car is that one has to make sure the charity is reputable as some of them do not properly transfer the title over to their names causing problems for the former owner especially if the charity gives the car to someone who is less than responsible with the car.
Well, I would not worry about the value you lost with your old Buick as it seems like you made things up with your new Chrysler.
I have heard so many horror stories about Wal-Mart, Sam's Clubs, and the 10 minute oil places that I would never use any of them under any circumstances. Jiffy Lube messed up my air filter housing as well as my fuse box, and I stopped taking my car there, and it has been better ever since. I think everything has to do with the kind of folks who work in those quick lube places as they generally are told to work fast as opposed to getting the job done right. I have had good experiences with Sears & Roebuck as their auto department is pretty competitively priced, and they have a national warranty which works out great for tires and batteries especially if one has a problem out of the area.
I think dealers are really hit or miss, and it is hard to find good ones. Luckily, many of the dealers in my area are honest, and they make their bread and butter from doing preventative maintenance. There was a time when dealers around here were real scum, but I think they figured out that they were becoming dinosaurs and were loosing their business to private mechanics as well as the Sears, Merlins, etc. At least where I live I generally can get a good deal from dealers for the most part, and I can usually call around to a bunch of GM dealers to see which one gives me the best price. Generally, dealers which have car salesmen who look like ex-felons or have all those gimmicks on their parking lot such as clowns or popcorn machines are those I pass up as they are not trustworthy. Especially when I buy from a dealer which treats me badly in the finance department is one from which I never buy. Chrysler dealers in my area are a really mixed bag, but the older ones in the City are really good though it is a shame quite a few of them had lost their Chrysler franchise. The way I test a dealer is to have them do some small inconsequential work to see how they do such as changing a light bulb. If they mess up something that small, then I know they are bad news. That happened to me at a dealer up in Wisconsin where they charged me for a light bulb they did not change, and I made sure they had gotten an earful from General Motors.
You know, I had read an article in the Chicago Tribune once by the auto reviewer who rightly was frustrated that there is no uniformity when it comes to opening to the gas tank as well as how to open hoods. At very least when it comes to gas tanks there should be something by the fuel gauge with an arrow indicating which side the fuel door is which would make things so much easier! While I know this would not be safe anymore I do miss the old cars when the gas tank was behind the back licence plate.
I would definitely not go below 89 on your car if that is what it takes. Your car will work a lot less efficiently, and the couple of cents which are saved are just not worth it. It still surprises me that a Chrysler would run on mid-grade fuel as I always thought even the top vehicles ran on regular 87.
It is great that you know how to change all of your own fluids as you can save a lot of money that way. I would definitely at least change your transmission fluid (and filter if your car has one) and coolant because those are the things which cause the most problems. I would probably also replace the serpentine belt especially if you are unsure about its age as it is a real pain when those things snap. Paying someone to change your oil is the way to go especially if it is a pain to find a place which takes old oil. Also, if you are unsure how old the battery is in your car and you are from a cold climate, then you are best off changing it. I have had great luck with Sears & Roebuck with batteries, but I will admit that the GM and Ford batteries are really good, too. I would definitely not get a battery from a Wal-Mart or any discounter as you get what you pay for from those places. Especially if you are from a cold climate, then having a good brand battery is the way to go along with an engine starter in case the worst happens.
On a side note, does your Chrysler have a cabin air filter?
Actually, I do not work on cars, but I just learned a lot about preventative maintenance through trial and error. In my case I made a lot more errors from which I learned. I do not really work on cars unless I have to do so so, but I can figure my way around them.
I drive a 2003 Cadillac Seville.

dunno about the cabin air filter.. never changed it on this one yet.. and.. I know more about cars than most women but I dont know much about cars.. only what I have had to deal with.. change air filter.. replace valve cover gasget... replace spark plugs.. check fluids, fill fluids, remove tires.. replace front stableizer bolts on the buick.. replace headlights and taillights.jump a car.... haha basic stuff.. ya know?
Battery sure seems good/new.. could always check I suppose...
thanks for all the advice.. oo and a Cadillac sounds nice :D
I love the big boats ;P.. my husband drives a honda and it is like freaken mario kart..bleh

That is good you know so much about cars as the reality is that whether one is a male or a female one has to get to know how to do preventative maintanence. While it is true that the Domestic manufacturers did make substandard cars for a while one thing that folks forget about the Domestics are that they require periodic preventative maintainance. However, due to the influence of the Japanese preventative maintainence on American cars can go longer whether it is 100,000 mile radiator fluid, 100,000 platinum tipped spark plugs, etc. It seems like you know what you are doing, and it is great that you are so familiar with what is needed to be done with cars.
I agree that Hondas and cars like them are like Mario Karts in relation to your Chrysler. One thing I will say about your Chrysler is that it is a very distinctive looking car, and your vehicle is probably one of the last of the Iaccoca-era designed vehicles before Mercedes-Benz ran Chrysler into the ground. I would take your car's styling anyday over a new Chrysler 300 which is basically an overpriced Dodge in my view.
I like big vehicles, too, and at least nowadays one can have a larger car while still being environmental friendly. It is interesting that cars with V8s can turn off half their cylinders during cruising speed, and even in city driving a large car now can get a respectable gas mileage unlike the same car from a decade ago. Also, who can beat the comfort of American cars?
