My first car was an '84 Ford Crown Vic LTD, that beautiful monstrosity of a two door coupe. It was ~215 inches long and was made out of ~3650 lbs of Detroit steel. I now drive a 2015 Ford Escape, which is 178 inches long and weighs ~3550 pounds.
Similar-sized cars are probably lighter nowadays, but the overwhelming shift towards SUVs holds back the average mass.
Now I'm misty-eyed, thinking of my beautiful LTD... a completely inappropriate car in 2019, but so much fun to drive.
