Used 2004 Ford Thunderbird for sale in Palmetto, FL

Description 2004 Ford Thunderbird History The Ford Thunderbird is a rear wheel drive automobile which was manufactured by Ford in the United States over eleven model generations from 1955 through 2005. The Thunderbird created a market niche that eventually became known as the personal luxury car. The Thunderbird entered production for the 1955 model year as a sporty two-seat convertible. Unlike the Chevrolet Corvette, it was not marketed as a sports car. Ford positioned the Thunderbird as an upscale model and is credited in developing a new market segment, the personal luxury car. In 2002, production of the Thunderbird started again; a revived 2-seat model was launched which was available through the end of the 2005 model year.
