Vehicle Highlights
Satellite radio is available for the first time on the lone American-brand rear-wheel-drive full-size luxury sedan. Town Car ascends through three trim levels: Signature, Ultimate, and the limousinelike Ultimate L, which adds six inches to the wheelbase to create more rear leg room. Last year's base Executive model has been dropped. All have a 4.6-liter V8 and a 4-speed automatic transmission. ABS, traction control, and front side airbags are standard, but no antiskid system is offered. Rear airbags or curtain side airbags are unavailable. Other standard features include power-adjustable pedals, dual-zone climate control, front bench seat, and leather upholstery. Newly standard for '04 is a rear-obstacle-detection system. Xenon headlamps and a navigation system are optional; satellite radio is a new dealer-installed option.
