We had Olds Delta 88s for years and then I got a Sable in the late 80s——they were all great cars.

Your Mercury Sable (and its twin, the Ford Taurus) was one of the bright spots of U.S. auto design and manufacturing in the 1980s and 1990s. Chrysler’s L-cars and GM’s X-cars of roughly the same era were abysmal pieces of crap.
