Here's a 2004 Ford Crown Victoria P71 Police Interceptor I purchased in MO a month or so ago.

The good:
I have not test driven this car much because it doesn't have plates. I have taken it down the road locally a few times and it seems to drive well.
The interior is clean overall.
The seats are in good condition.
Since the car is from Missouri, overall the body is very good with no visible rust.
The car got new spark plugs last week.
The brakes are 50% in the front and 60% in the rear remaining.
The rear doors have all of the lock and latch mechanisms in them. Most cop cars do not.
I have a clean MO title in hand.
Car has no major oil leaks or serious mechanical problems that I could find.
These cars were advertised to get 24mpg highway. Not too bad!
These cars are built for long term heavy service. That's why taxi companies drive them.
It's got cop shocks, cop brakes, etc...

The bad:
Car has 124K miles on it, so everything is not "brand new" tight. It has some rattles and squeaks.
The paint is not too good. The black is faded and chalky. It is flaked in multiple spots. It has some scratches and areas that are peeling.
Cup holder cover is broken off. See pic.
The roof has some small dents and holes in it from equipment.
The rear door on the driver's side has a dent. See pic.
The corner of the trunk lid his a ding and some small dents.
The tires are 30-40% remaining.
One rear inner door handle is broken. Not the mechanism, just the handle.

If you are looking for a cheaper but reliable car to drive, this car is for you. Keep in mind that this is a cheaper car that's 10+ years old. So, it's not perfect.

I have described this car to the best of my knowledge and tried to point out any flaws that I could find. Please email with questions before bidding.

Thanks for checking it out!!

Watch how Ken Block spent his weekend in Barbados

Thu, 22 May 2014

Regardless of what you think of his skill as a racer, Ken Block is an expert showman. At this point, he has a career of showing up around the world to do vehicular stunts, and he's still able to go racing as well. It's a pretty sweet niche to carve out. Recently, Block was in Barbados to participate in Top Gear Live and the first event of the Global Rallycross Championship season, and Ford Racing produced a short video to show off his exploits.
It looked like a great show. Block got to race Lewis Hamilton in a Mercedes-Benz Formula One car and had a very weird crash during a Rallycross race that put his Ford Fiesta on its roof. Top Gear also released an extended look at Block and Hamilton's spectacle with the two of them expertly sliding around. Scroll down to watch the videos and get a taste of Block's tropical racing adventure.

Mercury rises around sexy Cougar pack

Sat, May 30 2015

With a slightly larger body and a more luxurious interior, the Mercury Cougar doesn't carry quite as much cachet among pony car enthusiasts as the venerable Ford Mustang. But don't try to make that argument around Cougar super-fan Mike Brown. Since starting his Cougar collecting in 1988, Brown has become an absolute expert on the model, and he claims to have owned 400 of the Mercury pony cars in that time. Ten of them are in his collection today, not to mention a heap of spare parts in the garage. Check out some of the rarer members of Brown's fleet and allow him to tell you about them in this interesting interview from Electric Federal.

Ford cuts production at 5 plants, has big backload of cars including Mustang

Wed, Sep 20 2017

DETROIT — Ford said on Tuesday it plans to idle five North American vehicle assembly plants for a total of 10 weeks to reduce inventories of slow-selling models. The plants affected include three assembly plants in the United States and two in Mexico, the company said in a statement. The vehicle models include the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ midsize sedans, the Ford Focus compact car, the Lincoln Continental and Ford Mustang, Ford Fiesta and the Ford Transit van. Ford said the Cuautitlan assembly plant that builds the Fiesta would be idled for three weeks. The Hermosillo, Mexico plant that builds the Fusion and MKZ and the Flat Rock, Michigan, factory that assembles Continentals and Mustangs will be idled for two weeks each. The Michigan Assembly plant that builds the Focus will be idled for one week, and the Kansas City assembly line that builds Transit vans will be down for two weeks. Ford did not give dates for the temporary shutdowns. The factories involved employ more than 15,000 people, according to Ford's website. The company did not say how many of those workers would face temporary layoffs. As of Sept. 1, Ford had 111 days' worth of unsold Mustangs, 87 days' supply of Fusions, and a 103 days' supply of Transit vans, according to Automotive News. Dealers had enough unsold Lincoln Continentals to last 162 days. Automakers aim for 65 to 70 days of inventory of most models. Ford and rival General Motors have wrestled most of this year to rein in high inventories of passenger cars as consumers have shifted to buying pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles. Production cuts slice into revenue, but also could help the automakers avoid deeper price cuts on vehicles they can sell.
