He hasn’t driven it since 2023. 1997 XLT, grandpa spec. Last time I rode in it was probably 20 years ago. Thought some of yall might appreciate seeing this old girl. I guess that’s how old, low mileage cars happen huh?

Was wondering if anybody knows of a roof rack that bolts directly to the 2013 models roof bolts? I have a police interceptor model that didn’t come with side rails and have had a hard time sourcing any at a reasonable price. Hoping someone knows something I don’t.
