Hey all. Hope your New Year came in safe.
Mine did. Took the Regency to Missouri with 3 adults and 3 children, and 1 small dog. What a nice trip! Got to see my Grand-daughter for the first time.
Not what I wanted to talk about though.....
The Regency, (I need to name it), performed above and beyond all expectations! Now I will brag a bit! :)
At least 1220+ lbs of payload. Trunk was full, (I had to remove the 6 bodies). And I do not have a light foot. I do feather though.
The Regency boasted 1251 miles at 28.6 MPG. The pic is blurry, and the trip odometer resets at 1000.
Big car, big load, good maintenance.
