Ford Crown Victoria runs on Compressed Natural Gas (CNG). This is a dedicated CNG engine and does not run on gasoline. This vehicle has served me faithfully for a dozen years, getting about 21 MPG on CNG which currently sells for $1.50 in the state of Utah. That is dollar equivalent to getting nearly 50 miles to the gallon, but in a large, spacious vehicle. I commute from Springville to Salt Lake City regularly using the carpool lane with a Clean Vehicle pass issued by UDOT. The tank holds about 14-15 gallons, and have I driven it more than 300 miles on a single fill up. Natural gas burns clean leaving less engine residue and allowing for a longer engine life that is ever expected with a gasoline engine.

The body of the vehicle in great shape other than a fair number of rock chips. The interior looks very clean. The car feels like it could use new shock absorbers, and the engine hesitates some until it warms up, but I have no problem taking it back and forth along the Wasatch Front. I have also taken it on numerous trips between Utah and Southern California, and to visit my daughter in Pocatello, Idaho.

This vehicle was originally owned by Cal State Channel Islands as a vehicle for school administrators. It has a police interceptor engine for extra power and extra CNG tank capacity, but was never fitted as a police car. It was outfitted to carry executives and it plush and comfortable inside. It has power windows, power door locks, power side mirrors, cruise control, an A/C that runs cold, and a Kenwood sound system with USB and CD. The car has six seat belts, but seats five very comfortably.

Need for Speed movie casts Mustang in hero car role

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

Dreamworks Studios, Electronic Arts and Ford Motor Company announced today that the Ford Mustang will play the lead hero car role in the upcoming Need for Speed movie, slated to hit theaters next February. Of course, the Mustang didn't audition for the role like we imagine the film's star, Aaron Paul of Breaking Bad fame, might have. Rather, Ford and Dreamworks struck a partnership deal that meant the Mustang could skip the casting couch. The deal will also see the film's universe populated with other Ford products (gratuitously so, we're guessing), and the automaker will also help the studio promote the video-game-turned-movie next year.
The hero car in question is a special one-off Mustang created by Ford that is making its debut at the E3 video game trade show as we speak. Powered by a supercharged V8 and apparently based on the Shelby GT500, the car's been modified with a widebody kit, 22-inch wheels, larger air intakes and twin hood nostrils. Ford also provided the film's production with an F-450 truck that will be called "The Beast" in the film's story, and a second Mustang to be used during filming as a camera car.
The Mustang's movie career is really taking off, with news of its Need For Speed casting closely following last week's release of the trailer for Getaway, a movie coming out in August that stars Ethan Hawke, Selena Gomez and another Shelby GT500. In addition to Aaron Paul and a modified Mustang, the Need For Speed movie also stars Michael Keaton (cop, we're guessing) and Dominic Cooper (villain, we're guessing), and is directed by Scott Waugh, who directed the Navy SEAL film Act of Valor in 2012.

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company

Thu, 03 Oct 2013



That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.

Ford settles class action suit over defective Navistar diesel engines

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

The 2003 Ford F-Series Super Duty (shown above) introduced the 6.0-liter Power Stroke diesel supplied by Navistar, and while that is an engine Ford would love to forget, it's now one step closer to putting that particular problem behind it. Automotive News is reporting that Ford has settled a class-action lawsuit brought on by problems with this engine that started right out of the gate and ultimately broke up the 30-year relationship between Ford and Navistar.
Owners and lessees of 2003-2007 Super Duty trucks and E-Series vans equipped with the 6.0-liter Power Stroke are eligible for deductible reimbursements of between $50 and $200 from the original five-year/100,000-mile engine warranty, while Ford is paying out as much as $825 for out-of-warranty engine repairs. These repairs may include the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler, EGR valve, oil cooler, fuel injectors and turbocharger, but are only covered if the components failed before six years or 135,000 miles.
In total, Ford has agreed to pay about 50 percent of the value of the repairs and deductibles paid by its customers who submit a claim before the end of this year, and $150,000 is going to the 16 named plaintiffs in the case; Navistar was not included in the lawsuit.
