-137,000 miles may go up it's my daily driver

-My wife broke the driver side window regulator I'll fix before the auction ends if I have time!! It is still somewhat operational.

-Could use sway bar bushings. A soft squeak can be hear sometimes over certain bumps. Chicago roads are full of bumps....

-Brakes squeak sometimes when hot.

-Engine could use some routine maintenance (Chain guides and tensioners) Just being honest. The car runs great and will continue to, but sometimes on cold days there is a little chatter right when you start it up. Very typical for these engines. I'd say 4/5 of them with over 120,000 miles do it. The parts are $100 it takes about 2 hours to fix. You don't have to be a genius to do it. If you are interested in the car but worried we can work something out. I can fix it for you for an additional $200. Or, just drive it. I'm just anal I am a mechanic and my job is driving vehicles and diagnosing what is wrong with them so I notice everything..

The paint has some touch up work where some of the white has peeled on the roof. There are some dings and small dents here and there and some scratches. Keep in mind it was an actual police car and hasn't had any paint work since. Still, Cleans up great and has a very lustrous shine.

-Over all you really cant beat it. Great car at a great price drives like new.  I buy and sell a lot of Crown Victoria's this is by far the nicest driving one I have come across yet.

-Turn the key and drive it home or anywhere.

-Feel free to ask questions. I encourage anyone interested to come look at it or drive it before buying. I promise no let-down.

 Thanks - Mike                       Happy bidding!

2015 Ford Mustang to offer solid-rear axle, sort of

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

One of the biggest knocks against the last Ford Mustang was its solid-rear axle. Not one to actively court criticism, Ford dutifully swapped out the old-fashioned rear end for something a bit more modern in the redesigned 2015 Mustang, adding an independent rear suspension across the board.
While an IRS Mustang is great news for those that value handling and ride comfort, there's one big group that it's bad news for - drag racers. See, a solid-rear axle is a big deal for drag racers, because not only is it more durable and cheaper, but it's better for the hard launches that can make or break a race.
To satiate this vocal demographic, Ford will sell a body-in-white version of the Stang, complete with a nine-inch rear axle, that will debut at the 2014 Performance Racing Industry show. The news came from gas2.org, which cited an unnamed employee of Ford Racing at this year's PRI show.

Are you the next Ford Edge? [UPDATE]

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

What looks to be the next Ford Edge has been leaked in an apparent corporate Powerpoint presentation deck. Despite the thumbnail image's blurry and pixelated quality, it appears as if the next generation crossover will be staying close to its current aesthetic despite an all-new front clip with redesigned grille, headlamps, and lower fascia with integrated fog lights.
The upscale-minded Blue Oval CUV is due for a redesign in 2015, having just received a mid-cycle refresh for 2011. It isn't clear what changes lie beneath the new skin, either in terms of mechanicals or interior refinement, but we suspect Ford will be looking to put some distance between the next generation model and the new Escape, which is suddenly much more car-like and not that far off the more expensive Edge in terms of overall size, power or refinement.
UPDATE: Substituted clearer image - thanks, Sean!

2018 Ford Expedition vs other big SUVs: How it compares on paper

Fri, Nov 10 2017

With our Alex Kierstein rightly impressed in his first-drive review of the new 2018 Ford Expedition, we decided to dig a little deeper into the numbers, and we came up with the spreadsheet below to highlight how the new 2018 Expedition compares on paper to its main full-size SUV competitors: the 2018 Chevy Tahoe and Suburban (and therefore the 2018 GMC Yukon), 2018 Toyota Sequoia and 2018 Nissan Armada. We also threw in the new, even bigger 2018 Chevrolet Traverse since, as you'll see, its massive dimensions should put it on the radar for anyone who needs loads of passenger and cargo space but doesn't care as much about towing. A few notes about the chart above. First, the 6.2-liter V8 that's included with the new-for-2018 Tahoe RST trim level is the standard engine on the GMC Yukon Denali. You can apply most of the Tahoe's numbers to the entire Yukon and Yukon XL lineup. Second, though we highlighted categories where the Traverse led, we also highlighted the runner-up full-size SUV, since this was ultimately about that segment. Traverse numbers are broadly applicable to the new Buick Enclave.
