1991 Ford Ltd Crown Victoria Lx Sedan 4-door 5.0l on 2040-cars
Saint Paul, Minnesota, United States
Imgur album link (34 pics) The last of the land yachts - up for sale is my 1/82,433 produced 1991 Ford LTD Crown Victoria - the final year in the old "box" style. My old man picked this up from the original owner back in 2002 when it had about 90,000 miles - so I've averaged only a few thousand miles each year. It's spent most of that time traveling with me around the country - from here in MN, to North Carolina, over to SoCal, and finally back home to MN. She's only experienced one or two MN winters, and has never left me stranded. Mechanically, structurally, and cosmetically in great shape - A/C is still ice cold. In the past I've used this as a daily commuter (mostly highway) and I'm selling because I don't really need/want it anymore (about to buy a motorcycle). It's not the most fuel efficient, nor the most powerful, but the driving experience more than makes up for it. There are several quirks and nuances that you'll have to get familiar with, but you'll warm up to it quickly. Also, I put together a pretty sweet audio setup - did the install myself back in 2007 or so. Few thousand dollars worth of audio gear. It's competition ready with its upgraded electrical system. Features HO alternator Optima Yellowtop battery Knukonceptz 0-gauge wiring to the trunk RAAMmat sound deadening in doors and trunk Alpine CDA-9885 head unit (w/ Alpine KCE-422i iPod Connection Cable) + 80GB iPod Classic Cadence Amp (FXA4100) Phoenix Gold 5.25 components in the front doors AQ1200D Amp AudioQue 12" Subs SD2.512-D4 (x2) in a massive ported enclosure tuned low (22 or 23Hz I think) I have all original documentation and complete (mostly) maintenance history. I encourage you to have your local mechanic perform a thorough inspection prior to purchase. Title is clean.

2015 Ford Focus
Tue, 14 Oct 2014Sitting down at the pre-drive briefing with Ford engineers ahead of sampling the refreshed 2015 Focus, water bottles clinked as we wet our whistles before Q&A. While pouring a glass, we noticed something stamped on the bottle label: "1L." One liter. We were palming the exact displacement of the EcoBoost engine our group was about to drive. This was undoubtedly coincidence (such bottles litter every conference and dinner table in Europe) but it served to drive home just how small the total swept volume of Ford's wunderkind powerplant really is. It's tiny.
Of course, this isn't our first run-in with the little triple - we've sampled its turbocharged charms before in Ford's smaller Fiesta. At that time, we found it had plenty of poke for the subcompact, but the larger C-segment Focus carries around another 450 pounds or so and pushes a wider profile through the air. Would the three-cylinder have the stuffing to make the most of the Focus' athletic chassis, or would it be a letdown? Would it be the same as it was when we tested it in a Euro-spec Focus a couple of years ago? There was nothing left for it but to head out on the bucolic roads surrounding Versailles the day after the Paris Motor Show and find out for ourselves.
Ford Fiesta ST GRC Racecar is hungry for podiums in 2013
Thu, 07 Feb 2013As we reported earlier, the Chicago showing of this plucky Ford Fiesta ST GRC racer points to bigger and brighter days for Global RallyCross. For the upcoming season, you can expect to see Ken Block and Tanner Foust both driving the Ford racecar, and if last season's results are any indication, you can anticipate quite a few podium appearances, as well.
The Fiesta seen here was built by the Swedes at OlsbergsMSE, and will be driven in anger by Foust in 2013. Modifications are, as you'd expect, extensive, and include an engine, exhaust and braking upgrades, a racing style short-throw shifter and a limited-slip differential. As you can see, the car has been fully stripped out and caged for maximum speed and safety, too.
Refresh your memories with the details of the car, in the press releases below. And if you head out to the Chicago Auto Show this year, don't forget to drop by the Ford stand to have a look.
Ford C-Max Solar Energi takes a recharging station wherever it goes
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Companies ranging in size from small startups to major automakers have been experimenting with solar-powered charging stations for EVs and plug-in hybrids. And, of course, people have been powering vehicles with onboard solar panels for quite some time, too. Still, Ford's new C-Max Solar Energi Concept shows the promise of a truly practical implementation of solar on a production vehicle, and it may not be as far off in the future as we had thought.
As we reported a few days ago, the Solar concept makes use of a "concentrator lens" that focuses sunlight onto the Ford's roof-mounted solar panels. The special lens follows the rays of the sun to maximize the amount of charge being fed to the batteries of the car, taking about a day to fully charge the 21-mile, all-electric range of the C-Max Energi. Ford data suggests that combination might be enough to power 75 percent of all trips made by a statistically average driver. In turn, using the sun to power a vehicle could reduce yearly C02 emissions by up to four metric tons when compared with the driver of an average gasoline-powered sedan.
We've got live images of the C-Max Solar Energi Concept, jauntily tilted on its display to best present it's signature solar panels, straight from the CES floor.
