Vehicle mileage is 133,432 at the time of listing but will increase slightly as I use this vehicle to commute 60 miles round trip to work. The tires were purchase from Discount Tire at 124,798 miles.  Discount Tires receipt shows these tires to be a 45,000 mile tire. The mileage warranty is not transferable to additional owners however, the road hazard, tire workmanship and rotate and balance appears to be transferable according to the receipt. This warranty on the tires will expire August 5, 2014. The battery is about 3 months old. The rear axle was replaced in August of 2011. The mechanic said the axle came off of a Vic with about 75,000 miles. There is a hole on the seat back of the drivers seat. The interior is in decent shape for a used police vehicle. I purchased the car from the City of San Marcos, Texas in August 2011. I have primarily used the car for stationary security work where it was imperative to have a car that could idle for extended periods and not have overheating issues. It has served its purpose well but I am doing much less of this work now and need the money to put into another vehicle. The AC and heater both work very well. There is a spot light on the drivers side that does not work and is loose. The passenger side has the stem for a spot light but neither the light not the handle is present. The front seats are clothe. The rear seats are vinyl. Both front seat belts work. The rear seat belts do not have the female buckle receiver attached so you would need to purchase them if you need to carry passengers in the rear seat. The headliner is in good shape and is not sagging at all. There is not a working dome light. All headlights, tail lights, brakes lights, turn signals work. The headlights do seem to be aimed down too much but the high beams offer enough light for night driving. The floor of the interior is plastic. I have two carpet mats in the front floorboards. There are several holes in the dash from San Marcos mounting police equipment. The front push bumper has the flat black paint flaking off. The hood has about a 6" by 10" area flaking the white clear coat off. The roof of the car has some paint starting to peel next to the mounted GPS antenna that was left by SMPD. There are four mounts from the low jack locator system antennas on the roof. The trunk has the mount for a radio antenna. There are NO leaking issues where the mounts are on the roof and trunk. The check engine light is currently on and I will try to remedy that this week. The belt is squeezing badly also so I will try to remedy that this week also. I will post an update when these two issues are resolved. There is a popping noise in the steering when I cut the wheel all the way to the left or right at low speeds. I do not know what this sound is. 


I would be glad to show this car locally before you bid. I am in the area of south Fort Worth, TX.  This car is not perfect and is being sold as is/where is with no warranty expressed or implied.  That being said, it is a good strong Crown Vic that is ready for more security work, to continue to be a commuter are to slap some oversized wheels on it and turn some heads. 

A $500 deposit is expected within four days of auction end paid to PayPal. Local pickup is preferred but I would be willing to transport the vehicle for additional delivery charge. I would calculate fuel mileage, my time and cost of a car trailer rental. Please email me prior to bidding if you would like a quote on delivery charge to you.  You also have the option of using your own car shipping company however, full payment through PayPal is expected to clear prior to me releasing the vehicle to a delivery service. After the down payment is cleared through PayPal, the remaining balance may be paid in CASH ONLY upon pickup or delivery. If I deliver and the buyer backs out or no-shows, the $500 deposit will not be refunded.  This car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to terminate the sale at any time. The car has a Clear Texas Title in My Name and there will be no issue transferring it to your name. If you live in Texas, I would prefer to meet at a tax office of your choice to complete the deal and transfer the title. This will additionally ensure buyer and seller protection.

Ford C-Max sales hold steady despite fuel economy fracas

Mon, 09 Sep 2013

Despite the ballyhoo that accompanied Ford's lowering of the C-Max fuel economy figures, the Blue Oval is still seeing strong demand for the five-seat MPV, as Automotive News reports. Speaking to marketing boss Jim Farley, AN says that the controversy surrounding the C-Max's fuel economy figures won't force Ford to change its marketing strategy.
Ford lowered the fuel economy rating of the C-Max after public outcry and legal action by customers that were unable to reach the 47 miles per gallon promised by the window sticker. The new ratings were dropped about a month ago to 45 mpg on the freeway and 40 mpg in the city. Ford offered rebates for current C-Max owners, with $550 going to those that bought their car and $325 to lessees. The issue, says Ford, stemmed from testing standards that allowed the automaker to base the C-Max's fuel economy on the Fusion Hybrid, because they use identical powertrains. The C-Max's less aerodynamic shape wasn't taken into account, though.
Whether Ford's PR team handled the crises perfectly or people just aren't that bothered by a four-mpg drop in combined ratings, demand remains strong for the C-Max among consumers. Ford moved 3,000 units in August, which was a 12-percent jump over July sales. Meanwhile, consumer demand through third-party shopping websites remains strong as well, according to Autometrics, a data analysis company that spoke with Automotive News. While the long-term effects of the adjustments remain unknown, the C-Max appears to have fared well in the near term.

Ford Fiesta rally car warms up in Sweden

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

Rallycross is seeing a sudden surge in popularity with two series bringing the racing to the US and Europe. The Ford OMSE team is competing in both championships this season, and it saw no reason not to hold practice with a highly modified Fiesta in the snow of Northern Sweden. It brought together Andreas Bakkerud from the European-focused FIA World Rallycross Championship and Patrik Sandell from the North American-focused Global Rallycross series for some training and fun. They certainly appear to be enjoying themselves, too, with some lovely pirouettes in the powder.
If you're unfamiliar with rallycross, the discipline combines the best of rallying and circuit racing. Drivers (with no co-drivers) race rally cars over a circuit that generally mixes dirt and asphalt, and unlike traditional rallying, multiple cars compete side-by-side at once. Even better, it's often a very two-fisted form of motorsports with lots of car-to-car contact. Global Rallycross and World Rallycross will both kick off their seasons in May. With spring on the way, scroll down to watch the Fiesta kick up some of the last snow drifts of the year.

Shelby GT500 laps N"urburgring in under 7:40?

Wed, 30 Oct 2013

A couple of weeks ago we brought you footage and official times of the new Chevy Camaro Z/28 lapping the Nürburgring. With a 7:37.47 lap time, the Z/28 emerged as the fastest muscle car ever to lap the circuit. But what was missing from that picture was how fast the king of all Mustangs, the Shelby GT500, could manage to lap the Nordschleife.
Ford never released any information or footage of the GT500 on the Nürburgring that we were aware of - that is, until the guys at SVTPerformance.com put in a request for Mustang videos. Among the clips they received was never-seen, in-car footage of the Shelby GT500 lapping the circuit. And boy did it hustle.
Although not quite official, the video seems to show the GT500 lapped the venerated German track in a touch under 7:40. That would make it a tick or two faster than the Camaro ZL1 - but what of the Z/28? By Chevy's quoted time, the Z/28 is still faster than the GT500, but SVTPerformance suggests GM may have fudged the numbers a bit and scrubbed half a second or so off their lap time.
