I'm not a big Jag fan mind you but another company moving away from ICE all together is interesting. I believe Audi cancelled the R8 in favor of an EV version and the next Dodge Charger Hellcat supposedly will be an EV as well.

My wife's EV is pretty nice, but so far every EV I've driven has been discovered from the road. Like a moving couch instead of a driving experience. Hopefully we'll get some real enthusiast grade sports cards out of this.

What do y'all think?

That is a fantastic ride! Growing up my mom has a white Galaxies 500 with blue interior. It was an amazing car.

Certainly is, the 60s version of the Crown Vic essentially since that was what essentially replaced the LTD line, which replaced the Galaxie. Mines Black on Black, which is brutal in the CA summer so I wrapped it blue. Its a 2 door that seats 6 people very comfortably, lol.

A fun car to drive and very easy to repair and work on. Fortunately mechanical parts are vastly abundant and ridiculously cheap, since most parts are shared with other models. The only parts that are like, Galaxie specific, are body panels and interior trim parts, so those are the expensive hard to find parts.
