1999 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor Sedan 4-door 4.6l - Good Transp.! on 2040-cars
Macungie, Pennsylvania, United States
|
You are bidding on a 1999 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor. This happens to be the Street Appearance package, so it has the silver grille, body-colored mirror inserts, silver trim around the trunk lid and bumper covers, and full velour seating with center armrests. Everything in this car works. There is still a LOT of life left in this car despite the mileage. New brakes front and rear, new rear rotors, rebuilt rear axle, new radiator, new spark plugs, new fuel pump, new air filter and fuel filter, new shift cable, good rubber all around, good full size spare in the trunk. This is a very good city vehicle, or a pretty reliable road car in the spring/summer. It still rides smoothly (the rear axle is from a 2001 Town Car, so some acceleration is lost), and tracks well down the highway for it's size and age. No noticeable shimmying or pulling when the brakes are applied. In all, this was my wife's work vehicle - she drives 1000 miles a week - and except for driving over a tire in the middle of the road, we've never been stranded due to mechanical failure. Bid now and either fix it up without being too deep in the hole, or drive it as is with normal maintenance. Either way is fine!! Local pick-up only - you pay and arrange for any shipping yourself. $500 non-refundable deposit due on winning bid, and all remaining monies due will be paid in cash before vehicle is released. Title must be transferred upon pick-up of the vehicle, we can make arrangements due to respective work schedules and DMV operating hours. Winning bidder has 72 hours after payment to arrange pickup or money will be returned - less deposit - and car will be relisted. No warranties are expressed or implied - car is AS IS WHERE IS. I know this is a good car, but I can't predict how someone else will drive and damage the vehicle upon pickup and usage. Registration and insurance is the buyer's responsibility. The car is offered for sale locally as well, so I reserve the right to end the auction early unless otherwise noted. HAPPY BIDDING!! |

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost
Fri, 09 May 2014I'll be honest; when Ford first unveiled its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, I was skeptical. Past attempts at building turbocharged American cars were almost universally awful, I reasoned, so why would Ford's latest effort be any different? This may seem foolish today, considering the success that the growing EcoBoost range has achieved - particularly the 2.0-liter and 1.6-liter mills. Yet I once again found myself questioning Ford.
It's the makeup of the 1.0-liter, turbocharged three-cylinder slotted into the compact engine bay of this Fiesta that has a way of breeding doubt. Three-cylinder engines remain an extreme rarity in the US. What's more, they earned a less-than-desirable reputation for applications in the 1980s and 1990s, and my trepidation about this latest three-pot as a result.
As I found out, though, history is a poor informant of modern technology. The thrust available in other cars with the EcoBoost badge on the back has not gone missing here; something the International Engine of the Year committee has lauded. That august body named the 1.0-liter Ecoboost the best engine of 2012 and 2013. After a week of driving, it didn't take long for my fear of threes to get turned into something like that line of thinking.
NHTSA investigating Ford's solution to May 2014 power steering recall
Tue, Apr 7 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating a complaint that Ford's response to a May 2014 recall of the 2008 to 2011 Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner doesn't quite go far enough to solve a troubling power-steering problem. Roughly a year ago, Ford recalled nearly a million vehicles after it was found that a problem with the torque sensor's communication with the power steering control module could cut steering assistance for drivers. While manual steering would still be available, the problem was enough to ask drivers to report in to have the PSCM inspected, and if necessary, replaced (along with the torque sensor, or in dramatic cases, the entire steering column). That would only happen, though, if trouble codes were being thrown. If there weren't any problems, dealers were told to simply update the PSCM's software so that any issues between it and the torque sensor would simply throw a visual and audio warning – power steering would still be maintained. The petitioner claimed that following the recall work, he still experienced a problem with the torque sensor. According to NHTSA, a claim was made that Ford didn't go far enough in its solution to the problem, and that "the software update itself may in fact cause further issues with the affected vehicle's power steering, causing it to fail, and ultimately requiring replacement of the torque sensor or entire steering column." The petition was filed in early February and is now officially being looked into by NHTSA.
Ken Block rally cars go blue in the face (and everywhere else)
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Well at least we now know why Ken Block "just ain't care" about smashing up his Ford Fiesta rally car recently. It's because he's getting a full brand makeover including a new team name, new paint scheme and even a new headquarters. Formerly known as Monster World Rally Team, Block and his Fiesta will now be competing under the Hoonigan Racing Division name, which is based out of a new 12,000 square foot facility located in Park City, UT.
As you can tell in the image above, Hoonigan Racing will replace the familiar black, white and green paint scheme with a more colorful design featuring plenty of blue, purple and red; the Monster Energy logo retains some of the car's green. The new paint scheme was inspired by Block's love of skateboard graphics from the '80s and early '90s as well as "Miami Vice-era" speedboats.
Block will continue to compete in multiple rally racing series such as Global RallyCross, World Rally Championship and X Games. The new headquarters features office space on one side and a shop for the cars on the other side. The building features plenty of stuff you'd expect from a company designed around Ken Block, including a massive gaming station for racing video games, recycled shipping containers used throughout the facility and a black bear.
