I daily drove a shitbox 1975 Eldorado with the 8.2L while in college (2014 ish).
It actually was a fantastic car to drive. It has torsion bars in the front and air ride in the back and it sailed down the interstate like it was on a cloud at 80mph. The 190hp 8.2L was slow, but not so slow that it was annoying. It made enough torque to move a nearly 3-ton barge without much fuss. It was bomb proof reliable and did extremely well in the snow (3 tons and FWD helped).
