Input on a 1993 Imperial
I'm looking at a 1993 Imperial, I need a better daily driver as my 1993 Dodge Caravan is pretty worn out and is better kept for local trips.
Is the 3.8 a good engine that year ? The fuel economy I wonder about.
The transmission has a fresh rebuild.
Anything else on these cars ? I'm not savvy on them but I thought this would make an idea budget sedan.

The 3.8s are pretty hardy, and can handle some abuse/lack of maintenance. Can't say much for economy, but our 3.3L van averages 24-25mpg, my 3.0 car averages 32mpg, so I would guess it should land somewhere in the middle.
They are cheap to fix and maintain if you have some mechanical knowledge (assuming you do), are generally super reliable, offer a decent ride, what's not to love?

Wanna sell the van?
