During the last few months of 1984, Ford dropped the Mustang's 5.0 in a boxy family sedan. The LTD was the perfect sedan for it as it shared the same underpinnings as the Mustang hence being on the Fox platform. Many fans of this car and of the platform gave it the name the four-door Mustang, but really it was the LTD LX. The Taurus SHO came out in 1989, 4 years after this beast was on the road; that says a lot. This is one of the first sleeper cars from the domestic market! If you want to learn more about this interesting sedan be sure to watch the whole video. If you find yourself bored or want to see a particular part, be sure to check below this message for the timestamps to the video. Thank you all for watching, I will see you all next week!
