Found a nice 20004 SSB on EBay at a dealer in PA and bought it. Absolutely fell in love with it. Retired in 2010 and worried about the cost of keeping 2 cars and sold the XF. Big mistake. Took a job selling Dodge for something to do and decided the extra income would allow me to purchase another XF. Found a nice 2004 with 31k miles in NY and bought it. This one was Alabaster White. 18 months later I quit selling cars and worried again about affording 2 cars so sold the XF. Big mistake again. Two years later I decided I couldn't live without a XF and bought a Graphite on Ebay with 32k miles. I have decided I can't live without a XF, even though my other car is a 2012 Charger RT Road and Track.
All my XF's have been manuals. Other than replacing the water pump on my current XF I have had no problems.
Crossfires Forever.
Know exactly how you feel. I bought a used Alabaster LTD roadster in 2005 and sold it in favor of an SUV. Missed it so bought a used Red LTD roadster in 2006. Made the mistake of selling it for something more practical in 2008 and missed it ever since. Finally bought another Alabaster LTD roadster this past December with 43,000 miles on her and in gorgeous condition. This one is a keeper. The smile factor cannot be overrated especially with the current weather here in the San Francisco Bay Area 😊
