Beautiful P71 Under 40,000 Miles on 2040-cars
Rensselaer, New York, United States
|
This is a very low-mileage, extremely low idle hours, always unmarked, loaded 2008 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor with the coveted blacked out stealth look. I purchased it out of service from United States Government, where it appears to have been a dignitary car judging by the reading light installed in the back seat. I transferred out of a unit that provided take home cars in the summer of 2012 and have now returned to another that provides me with a take home vehicle so I don't need this car anymore. I purchased this car with 32,000 miles as a commute vehicle from my home to my office and it has served me very well. This 2008 has 37,936 actual, documented miles and 725 idle hours on it. This is a beautiful example of a very rare, hard to find car in the best color. This unit has never had a spotlight or decals and the antenna is a trunk lip mount so no hole. It has no holes drilled anywhere in the body and has never been in regular police service. This unit includes all of the options you would expect plus factory cruise control, factory auxiliary police dome lamp, factory AM/FM/CD stereo, driver and passenger side airbags, cloth front bucket seating with vinyl rear bench seat, full-factory carpeting w/matching factory carpeted floor mats, rear passenger reading light and an aftermarket center console for convenience. These items, of course, are just the beginning of the list of equipment on this car. It is finished in the factory Formal Black finish with Dark Charcoal interior. This is one of the most beautiful colors available on a Crown Victoria. With under 38,000 actual, original miles on it, the exterior is very nice and the interior shows nearly zero wear. It has been extremely well-maintained and it runs, drives and handles as close to new as you will find. It has never been abused and it looks gorgeous. All of the factory manuals are included with the vehicle, and are in place in the glove box. The trunk compartment is extremely clean, and the original full size spare tire is in place. I had a new high output alternator and battery installed in December 2013. This car has the full police package,
dark tinted windows and rides like a dream. If sold to a member of law enforcement or fire personal the whelen siren unit/control head and front and rear led warning lights will be deactivated and included. If not, they will be totally removed leaving no holes. All Crown Victoria’s produced from 2004-onward utilized the new, improved, 250-horsepower 4.6 liter V8 engine and are the fastest Crown Victoria’s produced due to many changes that were made, mainly in the intake system. Crown Victoria’s like this one are becoming extinct. Especially in this kind of shape, so here's your opportunity if you've been looking for one of the nicest you will find in desirable color combination with ultra-low mileage. This car drives as close to new as you will ever find. It is a very nice driving, tight unit...not a beat-up police car. It has never been used for any type of normal police or patrol work. It does have the usual minor scratches but they are like any used vehicle, not bad from decals or rough duty. It does have a large scratch on the front end that I have added photos of. Either the agency or Dealer I bought it from filled in the scratch and tried to cover it with touch up paint. But other than that this car is beautiful…This 2008 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor will sell to the high bidder at the end of the auction, providing the reserve is met. Please email me with any questions. |

Ford nets $5.7B in 2012, $1.6B in fourth quarter
Tue, 29 Jan 2013Ford brought in $5.7 billion in net income during 2012, which is around $307 million less than one year prior. Even so, the automaker closed out 2012 with the highest pre-tax profit for a single quarter in nearly 10 years, earning $1.7 billion in the fourth quarter thanks largely to a higher-than-average truck mix in the US. That's a jump of $577 million over 2011. Likewise, that translated into fourth quarter income of $1.6 billion. All told, Ford set a full-year pre-tax profit record in 2012. But that doesn't necessarily mean everything is rosy in the land of the Blue Oval.
Like every other manufacturer, 2012 saw Ford get hammered in the European Union, where a deep economic recession continues to drive down consumer confidence. The automaker lost more than $700 million in Europe, and saw full revenue of $26.6 billion in 2012. That's a decline of $7.2 billion compared to last yea. Ford says the market for new vehicles in Europe has contracted to 13.5 million units, the lowest number in 17 years. You can read the full press release below for more information.
Ford Police Interceptor with 2.0L EcoBoost rated most fuel-efficient police sedan
Tue, 26 Nov 2013Back in September, Ford announced a non-pursuit version of its Police Interceptor Sedan, which swaps out a choice of two V6 engines for a fuel-efficient 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder. This Special Service Police Sedan will be marketed to law enforcement agencies looking to cut fuel costs and don't need the extra power.
For college campuses, detectives and the like, this new police car has now been certified with EPA fuel economy estimates of 20 miles per gallon in the city, 32 mpg on the highway and a combined rating of 24 mpg. These figures represent a decrease of two mpg in city and combined ratings compared to the civilian-spec 2014 Taurus. These police cars still offer active grille shutters for better aerodynamics, although we're guessing agencies upfitting their cars with light bars and push bumpers aren't exactly concerted with aerodynamics. The true benefit of the SSP version is when it's compared against other police sedan options like the Dodge Charger, Chevy Impala, Chevy Caprice and even the V6 Police Interceptor Sedan.
Ford claims the new Police Interceptor Sedan SSP is the most fuel-efficient current option for police departments, saying that this car can save $1,720 per car over three years and almost $260,000 over the same span of time for fleets with 150 vehicles. There is an official press release posted below, and also check out the gallery of images from Ford collected from various police agencies across the US (although none show the 2.0-liter SSP model). Head on over to Ford's Police Interceptor mini-site for even more pictures of the Police Interceptor Sedan and Utility.
2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost flogged and analyzed by Ignition
Mon, 13 Oct 2014Aside from the way it looks and perhaps its independent rear suspension, the biggest bit of news on the 2015 Mustang may be the inclusion of its 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That blown mill marks the first time since the Mustang SVO of the '80s that a turbo has been fitted under the engine of Ford's pony car.
The Mustang EcoBoost is the subject of the latest episode of Ignition from Motor Trend, giving us a great look at the technical, nitty-gritty side of the turbocharged coupe. Covering it from bow to stern, host Carlos Lago walks us through the boosted Ford before taking to the track for some driving impressions, with particular praise given to the low-end grunt of the 2.3-liter mill.
Check out the full video and then let us know which 2015 Mustang has your interest piqued the most - the EcoBoost four, the 5.0L V8 or the entry-level V6.
