Drive GREEN, cruise in the HOV Lane and SAVE, SAVE, SAVE !

This car is a Police Interceptor (P71), and was a Fire Department vehicle, driven by only two people before I bought it a year ago. So it was not abused like your average Police Cruiser. It has all the amenities typical for these cars: ABS brakes, electric windows, cruise control, etc. The interior is sea blue, with cloth bucket seats in the front and a matching vinyl bench in the rear. The carpets and headliner are also sea blue. The car also comes with an upgraded 200 Watt Dual Bluetooth Stereo with remote control.

This Crown Vic is in excellent condition and has just over 27,250 miles on it. (Still registered and in use.) Brakes and tires are good, all with about 65% of their respective life remaining. Additionally, I just had some important service work performed to make it handle like new. On October 26th at 27,100 miles the following new parts were installed at a total cost of $745: A NEW set (4) of Monroe severe service shocks, NEW Moog front sway bar bushings, and a NEW idler arm.

Best of all, this car is an OEM (built by Ford in Canada) dedicated COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS (CNG) vehicle. This allows you not only to save a bundle on fuel costs, but you can legally cruise the HOV/ Diamond Lane by yourself during commute hours, because by burning Natural Gas you are in a Clean Air Vehicle -- Greener even than most Toyota Prius', and with a lot more room and comfort. The HOV Lane saves you a lot of time. And to save even more on fuel, this car had differential gears with a final drive ratio of 1 : 2.73 installed, which lets you save about 10% compared to a standard P71's rear gears.

When cruising at 70-75+mph on the freeway I average 24 mpg. In city traffic that drops down to about 16 mpg. 19 mpg is my average, but with a gentler right foot you can easily bring that up to 20+ mpg. The installed CNG tanks give you a range of 160-200 miles. The CNG tanks are certified until 11/2015 and the white HOV Lane stickers that come with the car are good until at least 12/2019 (Per AB 266).

At current fuel prices of around $3.75 per gallon, the $2.20 per GGE Natural Gas this car uses will save you an average of $1.55 per gallon! At an average of 19 mpg with 20,000 miles per year driven, that will save you a cool $1,600+ in just one year! You can even a reduce your fuel costs to under $1/ GGE by getting your own compressor system and a special rate from PG&E. If you do, you will more than double your fuel cost savings.

Of course, if you use this car as a taxi (which is what I had planned) you will save a lot more. When you run this car for 5 shifts a week averaging 200 miles a shift, for 50 weeks a year, in the 50,000 miles driven you will save $4,000+! ! So after just over a year and a half, this car will have paid for itself, with just the money you saved on fuel costs. All the while you're passing the competition in the HOV lane on your way back from the City or the Airport. If you have or get your own CNG compressor you can save close to $9,000 in the first year !

Because I was going to turn this car into a taxi, I have some additional items available that you may want to get if you also plan on using this vehicle as a taxi. These items are not included in my price for the car. Here's the short list and the prices for the individual items:

• NEW Energy Suspension Polyurethane Bushings for Front A-Arms: $80 ($99.95+tax at Kragen)
• NEW Moving LED Message / Taxi sign, with base modified to fit a Crown Victoria: $250
• NEW CentroDyne Silent S700 Advanced Taxi Meter (installed) PRINTER READY: $300
• Upgraded Sea Blue Headliner, w. Map Lights and rear Passenger Lights: $180
• Upgraded Sea Blue 2-part Sun Visors, Driver's & Passenger Side w. lighted Mirrors: $120
• 415 Area Code Vanity Phone Number 5XX-TAXI: $3,500

Watch Ken Block's scary Rally America crash from inside the cockpit

Wed, 19 Feb 2014

Ken Block became famous for his series of Gymkhana videos, but he's a real racer in his own right. Block has competed many rounds in the FIA World Rally Championship and also rallied in the 2013 Rally America series. He nearly won that latter title last year - if not for a massive crash in the final event of the season.
Block and his co-driver Alex Gelsomino went into the Lake Superior Performance Rally needing a win to take the championship. However, missing a clump of dirt on the side of the road and one little word in the pace notes was all it took to catapult Block's Fiesta off the road and into a tumbling accident. Block says his initial reaction was anger because the crash came out of nowhere.
For 2014, Block is joining the FIA World Rallycross Championship for at least three rounds. He'll drive a Ford Fiesta for the Hoonigan Racing Division at the Norwegian, French and Turkish events of the 12-round championship. Former Formula One World Champion Jacques Villeneuve will also compete in the series.

Weekly Recap: Toyota propels hydrogen fuel cells

Sat, Jan 10 2015

Toyota is serious about hydrogen fuel cells, and it wants the auto industry to follow suit. The Japanese automaker said this week it's releasing 5,680 fuel cell patents from around the world, including technologies used on its upcoming sedan, the 2016 Mirai. The move is unusual, but not unprecedented, as Tesla similarly released its electric vehicle patents last year. The idea for Tesla, and now for Toyota, is to spur development of alternative propulsion. "By eliminating traditional corporate boundaries, we can speed the development of new technologies and move into the future of mobility more quickly, effectively and economically," said Bob Carter, Toyota Motor Sales senior vice president of automotive operations, in a statement. Toyota's fuel cell patents will be free to use through 2020, though patents related to producing and selling hydrogen will remain open forever. Toyota said it would like companies that use its patents to share their own hydrogen patents, but won't require it. "What Toyota's doing is really a logical move, and really a good move for the industry," Devin Lindsay, principal powertrain analyst with IHS Automotive, told Autoblog. The announcement was made at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. It comes as Toyota prepares to launch the hydrogen-powered Mirai in a limited number late this year in California. The launch will be extended to the Northeastern United States next year. Toyota also has announced plans to support networks of fueling stations in each region to try to smooth consumer adoption. The Mirai has a 300-mile range on a tank of hydrogen, and it takes about five minutes to refill. Fuel cells have been receiving increased attention recently, and Audi and Volkswagen debuted hydrogen-powered cars at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. Honda, another proponent of the technology, also showed its updated FCV concept in November in Japan. The company, however, has delayed its fuel cell sedan a year until 2016. Like Toyota, Honda says its hydrogen-powered car will have a range of 300 miles or more. Meanwhile, Hyundai currently offers leases for fuel-cell powered Tucsons, which have a 265-mile range, in Southern California. Despite the optimism some automakers have for fuel cells, the technology still faces barriers. A lack of filling stations has long held it back, and many consumers are not familiar with the potential benefits.
