 2008 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor

Dark Toreador Red Metallic 2008 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor with Charcoal interior.
It never was a marked unit! It never had a cage! Tinted windows. Recently out of service in North Carolina.
Individual Assigned Supervisor take-home vehicle.

108,372 documented miles and 2191 idle hours.

Clear Title, Maintenance Records, User Manuals, Window Sticker and CarFax in-hand.

CarFax shows 3 collisions. I have these minor damages documented through photos and repair records. One collision was only the front license plate bracket!

Interior/exterior holes for police equipment plugged.

This unit is nice inside and out and has been very well-maintained. Even over-maintained from the records. 39 oil changes!
It is very responsive and smooth-shifting.
This car has no known mechanical defects and it runs and drives excellent.
A/C is COLD. It has the correct Goodyear RSA Tires including spare. Front tires are 8/32 and rear tires are 7/32 of tread.
The rear door-open rods are installed and the locks and doors work.

I am the second owner and have enjoyed the car for 8 months.

As with any used vehicle, it does show wear, chips, dings etc.

Notable things I should mention. It has 3 dings the size of a BB. One on the left rear roof. One on the back of
the trunk lid beside the Ford emblem and one on the rear passenger door. There is some cracking to the paint
on the left rear bumper cover corner. These minor things are hard to capture in a photo. It had 3 antennas on the rear.
2 were on the trunk lid and 1 on the trunk inside channel. Those holes are plugged. The only thing that does not work,
is the ticket light. I did not see the factory wires in the headliner when I pulled the light down. Should be there.
The driver seat has 2 holes on the outside hinge area. 1 about dime size and the other about quarter size.
**Since the pictures, the antenna on the rear quarter-panel has been removed.

Here is what I have done to the car :
I put an aftermarket Chrome grille on it. I have the Factory black honeycomb if you would like that better.
I put a quality console in it.
Oil Changed.
Detailed wash/wax.
Removed old pin-stripe and installed new 3m pin-stripes.
Installed rear brake pads.
Rotate/balance tires.

I welcome any and all questions you might have.

120 additional photos available on request.

I encourage serious buyers to message me your contact (phone/email) info, and I will be happy to discuss this vehicle in detail.

It is rare to have a police vehicle with all records from the time it rolled off the trailer (new) to current.

Available for viewing/inspections. Currently not driven and housed in a climate controlled garage.

This car is for sale locally and therefore auction could end early.

Are we about to see a real SUV revival?

Wed, Mar 23 2016

Now that the marketplace has been oversaturated with cute-utes, crossovers, and CUV coupes, are we about to see a resurgence of real, honest-to-God SUVs? Ummm... maybe. The stars seem to be aligning in that direction, at least that's the sense I'm getting. We know an all-new Jeep Wrangler is only a few auto shows away; and that Jeep is about to introduce a new Grand Cherokee Trailhawk for 2017, in the same rugged spirit of the successful Cherokee and Renegade Trailhawks. Ford has hinted at a neo-Bronco, after showing the concept above in 2014 to wet the mouths of all those Duck Dynasty-types out there. And, and... wait for it... I recently learned that Subaru sent a questionnaire out to some Forester owners asking if they might be interested in an off-road package if it were offered. The items listed were pretty hardcore, serious stuff, such as: integrated tow/recovery hooks, additional ground clearance, more rugged wheels, skid plates, altimeter, front-view off-road camera, improved approach and departure angles, advanced differentials, Inclinometer, full-size spare tire, upgraded off-road suspension components, more aggressive tires, off-road driving mode (engine, transmission, throttle, and steering settings), more rugged styling, low-range gearing, and a more advanced traction management system. Folks that's not my wish list (well, actually it is), but those are words from Subaru, asking if that's what customers would like to see. Need proof? Go to the SubaruForester.org website. It's in a discussion there. So... no promises or guarantees here, and feel free to call me a rumormonger if you like; but the next few years could prove very interesting for those who actually do go off road. If this pans out, remember, you read it here first. Related Video: Image Credit: Ford Ford Jeep Subaru Crossover SUV Off-Road Vehicles open road

Lincoln recycling tree fibers into new MKX armrest

Thu, Feb 27 2014

Want to hug a tree, or at least a really small part of one. Then set your arm down on one of those armrests in the 2014 Lincoln MKX crossover. The US automaker is working with Weyerhaeuser and Johnson Controls on a tree-based, cellulose-reinforced polypropylene material used in the component that connects the armrest to the floor console, Wards Auto says. With properties similar to plastic, the tree-based material replaces fiberglass and is about six percent lighter. No big deal for now, but if the material starts getting used for things like battery trays and interior storage covers, that loss in weight may eventually start adding up enough to boost fuel economy a bit, providing a green double bonus. Lincoln parent Ford, which isn't saying how much more (or less?) it costs to use the new material, established its Biomaterials and Plastics Research team in 2001. In 2007, the company began using soy-based foam in car seats used for models such as the Lincoln Navigator and Ford Mustang and has since broadened biomaterials use to components like floormats and cupholder inserts. Ford also used recycled plastic bottles from the 2012 North America International Auto Show for seats in the Focus Electric.

Martini Mustang is a 'what if moment' gone right

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

Feast your eyes on a masterpiece. This is Steve Strope's Ford Mustang in the classic fastback bodystyle, and as you'll notice, it sports the signature colors of Martini Racing, a livery that's as legendary as any Gulf Racing-styled car. But the red, white and blues of the Martini stripe down this Mustang's middle tell only a very small part of the story, in the latest video from Petrolicious.
What would you guess is under the hood? A 289-cubic-inch V8? Maybe a 302, or some absurd Ford crate engine? Maybe Strope went all Tokyo Drift - he's actually responsible for the "Hammer" Plymouth Satellite driven by Vin Diesel at the end of the movie - and found an RB26DETT to drop into the pony car? You'd be wrong on all counts.
This mad, mad man somehow finagled a Ford-Lotus engine from a 1966 Indianapolis 500 car into the Mustang's engine bay. Yes, a Mustang with an engine designed for a 160-mile-per-hour, open-wheel racecar. That's like someone in 40 years dropping McLaren's 2.4-liter V8 from the MP4-28 into a Scion FR-S. It'd just make a monster.
