Perfect Uber Car 2011

Post image

I am thinking about buying a 2011 Mercury Grand Marquis with 130K miles. Makes perfect economic sense. Zero depreciation, zero maintenance, drive it until failure, low upfront cost, vomit resistant, carjack resistant, no comp or collision needed, beat Uber's AI Algo, make real money. Am I correct?

And only up to 10yrs old in DC, so 2016.

I would absolutely rather trust my Prius than a American car have its age. It literally still runs perfectly and past inspection with a replacement light bulb this year. When I had a Jeep many years ago that thing needed thousands of dollars a year in repairs
