The Ford LTD: before you buy

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no Ford LTD for sale by us right now. CarmaCars is not a leasing company. You can rent month to month and stop at the end of any booking. Before buying the Ford LTD, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

What to check on the LTD

Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.

What the specs mean

The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.

The LTD in everyday use

As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city.

Who rents the LTD

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Rent it for a week first

Drive the LTD on your commute before you commit to it. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the LTD for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

Running costs

Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Which one to look for

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

Next step

Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.

Rent it for a week before you buy

Buying the Ford LTD

Does CarmaCars sell the Ford LTD?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a Ford LTD before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
