AutoNation USA Jacksonville review
Decided to sell my 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan. Highest online offer was Autonation Jacksonville. Made an appointment to pursue the offer. Arrived at the store and was connected with 2 representatives. Ash and manager Cam. Process was straightforward. Vehicle inspected, and very minor issues pointed out to me that I was not aware of. Fair offer made and accepted. Entire process took approx 1.5 hours and I left with the check in my hand. Payoff was no issue either. Both Ash and Cam were extremely professional, explained each step of the process and were a pleasure to deal with. As a retired automotive professional (42 year career) outstanding professionalism in the used automobile trade is the exception rather than the rule. Autonation and Ash & Cam were exceptional in this transaction. Very satisfied with the way the deal was handled and the positive outcome. I would not hesitate to do business with them again.
2005 Ford Thunderbird review
I purchased a 2005 with bells and whistles just as Ford were step-selling for $30,000 dollars them to clear them. The silver beauty was mine until a year ago and I put a mere 25,000 miles on it in that time. It was a comfortable touring coupe with adequate performance and a penchant for eating plug ignition assemblies. It needed an new A/C assembly at 20,000 miles but the real issues began with poor performance due to fuel issues. Ford tried several times to make the engine trouble light go off until they discovered cracked fuel tank where it is hidden by the bodywork. It took them six weeks to find a replacement from a written off Lincoln LS as there were no longer fuel tanks available for the car. They cleaned it, modified the fuel delivery hose and all was well again. In spite of an excellent after market company providing some parts, this car falls into the obsolete zone. Certain parts are unavailable. Despite this, I sold it reluctantly and often get the urge to buy another one. But the parts situation does not sit well with me and was the reason I sold it.

2005 Ford Thunderbird review
Purchased our '05 retro bird from a seller on Long Island 3 years ago and took a 4,000-mile epic road trip home to Utah. It had 9,000 miles on it when we left the seller's house on Long Island, 13,000 when we pulled in the driveway at home. It performed flawlessly on the road trip. It was remarkably comfortable and roomy. It really is a pleasure to drive and travel in on a road trip. My wife, who is "a delicate lady," never once complained about the ride or comfort in the cabin on the 2 week 4,000-mile drive home. As we approached with our bag of groceries, a man standing next to the Bird in the supermarket parking lot in Martha's Vineyard said it as well as anyone, "I'm not a Ford man but I really like this car." This TBird is the first car I have owned where complete strangers have approached me and commented on it's good looks. I lost track of how many people did that on our trip home from Long Island. Our '05 is black on black and Ford only made about 5,000 of those that year. I've never seen another one on the road. It's truly a gleaming black beauty. Not a lick of trouble, runs beautifully and the factory exhaust note is magic. It's still 100% original except for the tires, the original tires looked fine with only 13,000 miles on them, but the tire store wouldn't work on a slow leak on one of the tires because of their age, so new Michelins. My only disappointment is that Ford did not offer a manual transmission on these, but I guess I'm in a small minority of drivers who cares about that. In good weather I try to take it out once a month to run some errands or take a Sunday drive, to make sure everything is working and keep the battery charged. Though it is fun to drive, it is also just a joy to look at in the garage. Like looking at a piece of art, a painting or sculpture. I put about 300 or 400 miles per year on it and after 3 years of ownership, so far so good. It goes to the dealer once a year for an oil change and service check. I've seen retro Birds for sale where owners have updated the sound system with aftermarket stuff that probably has satellite radio, nav, etc. I get the motivation to do that, but to me it's a sacrilege, defacing a classic. I have a gizmo that plugs into the lighter outlet and converts the Bluetooth signal from an iPhone to an FM signal the radio picks up and plays; that works fine. But mostly I just plug CDs in with classic 50's music, that seems most appropriate and adds to the ambiance. It never leaves the garage unless the weather is suitable for top-down driving.

2005 Ford Thunderbird review
I fell in love with this car the first time I saw the new retro styling. I procrastinated pulling the trigger on buying one and then heard Ford was discontinuing it after the 2005 50th Anniversary model. I thought I missed the boat, but luckily I spotted one still on the lot on a trip to Wisconsin. I immediately purchased it and I now have 22,000 miles on it. I keep it in a heated garage during the winter and only exercise it on clear days in the winter. During the summer it only leaves the garage when the top can be down. This is a terrific cruising machine. It's not high performance like some other models, but it has plenty of power to get around when called upon. I can't take it anywhere without people commenting on how cool it looks. I was six years old when it was first introduced in 1955 and I still remember how cool people thought it was back then. As the Beach Boys sang, this is the "T Bird that daddy took away!' Forever cool!

2005 Ford Thunderbird review
Love driving this fun car. Maintenance has been an issue and will probably only get worse... Item: Like most modern cars, there are no grease points in the suspension. So when the little rubber boots that cover the joints rot away, there's no way to lubricate the suspension, and the parts start to grind against each other. Out $4k to replace the front and rear suspension. Had them do the struts too since they had to take everything else out. Item: Many parts no longer available. The accelerator pedal switches failed. No Ford or aftermarket replacement to be found. Good news: found one at a salvage yard. Bad news: it's the same age as the one it replaced. Item: Crack in the windshield? Stay away from any chain that rhymes with "Chafe-Bite." Replacing the windshield means removing the frame. Very few of their techs are trained on how to do this.
