1997 Ford Crown Victoria P71 (Police Interceptor) with 192,000 miles. 4-door, V8 4.6L engine, automatic transmission, RWD. Still running well after all this time (working heat/AC, power windows/locks, etc.). I have owned this car for 60,000 miles (~3 years). During this time, it has had regular tune-ups and oil changes, replacement tires, new front-end suspension parts as needed, new wiper transmission, new power steering pump, new cooling fan, new differential/bearing replacement parts and a differential oil flush, new battery, and various other replacements/upgrades. It has never once broken down or failed to start, and has been my daily driver to/from work.
The vehicle is due for new filters, and could use a new fan clutch, thermostat and coolant flush (temp gauge has been slightly above median during long drives, but still within safe limits). I will be including new parts for this (over $150 worth of parts) - just haven't had a chance to replace them myself. Also, there are some small rust spots/scratches and the hood is not perfectly flush with the body due to a collision with a deer some time ago (thus, the new headlights/grill/bumper). The price is low due to age/mileage and minor cosmetic issues. I pulled the stereo to put it into a different car, but can provide the wiring diagram and a used stereo if desired (easy to hook-up, and all car speakers are working). It comes with a clean title too. Selling "as is."
Asking $1,100 OBO. Please reply to post via email, or call/txt Chris at (978) 3three3-117nine (spelled out number to avoid bots) if interested. Expect a slightly morose man - a bit sad to give up the Millennium Falcon, although I don't really need two P71's...

Holy crime-fighting Ford F-150, Batman!
Thu, 18 Jul 2013What would Batman drive for his weekly trips to Home Depot for the bits and pieces needed to keep his lair deep below Wayne Manor in tip-top condition? Certainly not the Batmobile - there's no way a 4x8 sheet of plywood will fit between the wheel wells, not to mention the fact that jet turbine engines have an unfortunate tendency to set trailers on fire when towing...
No, what Batman needs is a pickup truck. The boys from Ford teamed up with Galpin Auto Sports to build just such a machine, and it has just debuted at Comic Con. Designed by Jared Barris, grandson of the legendary kustomizer George Barris, the 2012 F-150 pickup you see here, dubbed Crime Fighter, is painted Tuxedo Black with Ferrari Red highlights and is affixed with fins on each side of the truck bed. It's nothing if not unique.
Well, it's at least unique for now. According to Ford, Galpin in Southern California is willing to take orders for customers looking to don a cape and hit the town for a night of crime-fighting action. Or trips to Home Depot. Check out our high-res image gallery and then scroll down for the official description from Ford. We're waiting for details such as pricing and build time from Ford, and we'll update this post if and when we hear back.
European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year
Tue, Dec 16 2014There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.

What's in a trademark? Sometimes, the next iconic car name
Thu, 07 Aug 2014
The United States Patent and Trademark Office is a treasure trove for auto enthusiasts, especially those who double as conspiracy theorists.
Why has Toyota applied to trademark "Supra," the name of one of its legendary sports cars, even though it hasn't sold one in the United States in 16 years? Why would General Motors continue to register "Chevelle" long after one of the most famous American muscle cars hit the end of the road? And what could Chrysler possibly do with the rights to "313," the area code for Detroit?
