There's a gazillion Crown Vic cop cars, so they must have something going for them.
It does seem out of place to see a family sedan out there, but from stories my mom & dad have talked about from their days in Trona CA, it was common to see a 1950's Bel Aire or even old Model T's miles and miles from anything. They'd ride a Harley in the Panamint Mountains. One time, they saw a brand new Buick with an old couple coming down a sand road, then going up a steep rocky hill. They stopped on the way by. They were full up with supplies and heading back to their mining camp in a shiny new (Then) 1960's Buick sedan.
You just never know...
