These are gorgeous cars - the Galaxie, Thunderbird and Falcon. And the Falcon got up to 30 MPG! Dig those women's fashions, too - you almost expect Jackie Kennedy to step out of the car.
Love the way they're parading from first one car to another, en mass, in their evening wear. "Let's all admire the Galaxie first! Then we'll promenade over to the Thunderbird! Now, in unison, we'll all sway over to the Falcon!"

They should have been dressed casual while viewing the Galaxie, then dressed formal while viewing the Thunderbird, then hugging a toilet bowl and hurling while viewing the Falcon.

My parents had a 1960 Fairlane. Ran well, so far as I can remember. What's interesting is that according to what I've read, the full sized 1960 Fords were actually too wide by about an inch or so and the feds let them slide but Ford corrected the issue for the 1961 cars.

I remember going with my dad to the showrooms in the late 60's to see the new cars, models and colors. My dad was a Buick man, i was a Chevy person. That's when you could tell one car from another because they all had their own designs and looked different. Those were the days when cars were made out of metal, chrome, the doors sounded solid when closed, the ride was comfortable, quiet, and roomy where you didn't have your knees in your dimples. Those were the days.

I like the 60's Ford! The Falcon had a 144 cid and a 170 cid engines, both six cylinder. In 1963 they went to a 200 cid 6 and a 260cid v-8. My friend in the military had a 1960 with the 144 engine. He was getting 35 mpg.

Why did the 1960 ford starliner look more modern than the 61 Galaxy ? Looks like they went backwards with styling. The 1960 had a very modern front grill&lights and rear end, too. The 1961 Galaxy went back to upright pointy fins and an older looking front grill . Never understood that.

If that Falcon got 30mpg by 1960's standards, that would be like saying a 2010 Ford Fusion should get 100mpg. I'm sure if you used todays mpg guidelines, the Falcon would be rated closer to 18mpg. These cars are BEAST! They are as big as a house! They are still better than most new cars :)
