The 442 came out around the time I was born...

I had an '87 (maybe) Calais (used) that I can still remember places where it broke down, then an early-90's LSS and then an early model Intrigue, followed by a late model Intrigue... The LSS was a boat, but was a dream on road trips...

The Calais was a nice car, but no one knew what was wrong with it. They mechanics kept saying it was electrical, but I tried to tell them it was the automatic transmission because it would stall when I broke from highway speeds, especially when it was hot. "No. It can't be the transmission."

A few months after I traded it in I was listening to Car Talk and someone called in with a very similar problem, and they said "It's the transmission. It is vapor locking into high gear and stalling the engine." 😡
