Cvpi Police Interceptor Havis K-9 Cage And Factory Rear Seat on 2040-cars
|
Up for sale is my 2003 CVPI Crown Victoria Police Interceptor Prior Wisconsin State Police Highway Patrol Unit I purchased it 4 years ago and replaced many significant parts and used it as a daily driver until this Winter. The rear differential will need to be rebuilt or replaced. The vehicle does currently drive and it is the only known issue from being a reliable daily driver again, however the repair is mandatory. I've had the car parked since the middle of Winter with the intention of repairing the rear differential but I haven't had the time. Now I have 4 vehicles and only a 2 bay garage, so the wife says one of them has to go. I will miss it very much, as it has been very reliable, inexpensive and comfortable and fun to drive. The car demands respect on the road. Other drivers are always very courteous, nobody tailgates or cuts you off, it really makes for a stress-free driving experience whether it be a long trip on the highway or just to the grocery store. These are some of the repairs made, the majority of the repairs were within the last few years and only with factory Motorcraft or quality aftermarket parts like Moog
Currently installed in the back seat is a Havis K-9 cage (MSRP $1500 new) The car also comes with the factory seat and door panels. My dog loves his area in the back of the car, and it proved to be very convenient. The cage also provides a flat floor making it very roomy for transporting larger objects. The factory back seat, door panels and everything needed to go back to a factory is included. Currently mounted on the rims are General Altimax Arctic winter tires, they have been used for 2.5 winters and a phenomenal to say the least. With the factory limited slip rear end the car was unstoppable in any snow we see in CT. Summer tires also go with the car. I have a set of OEM police interceptor Eagle RSA's. 2 of them are brand new with less than 1000 miles, 1 is only about a year old and 1 is older and needs to be replaced soon. The rear differential gears are 3.27:1, giving you excellent gas mileage for a V8 especially on the highway. On road trips I usually get 23mpg at 75mph, and around town about 18mpg. The car is also equipped with a remote starter and alarm system. VERY convenient on really cold or really hot days. The only issues other than the rear end are minor and don't affect driveability:
Exterior blemishes are noticeable up close only and there are dings, scratches and dents. However when the car was driven daily I kept the exterior looking as best it could with polishing, buffing and waxing multiple times a year (as you can see from the pictures taken last summer it was very well taken care of). Currently the car hasn't been washed since the Winter and hasn't been polished up since before Winter. The first 15 pictures were taken last summer when it was still a daily driver, the remaining pictures of the car in the asphalt driveway are current pictures of the car and where it's been for the last few months. The car has a clear title in hand. * The center console in the pictures and the aftermarket radio are not installed in the car nor included in the sale, the factory AM/FM head unit has been re-installed. Also the items in the trunk are not included.....neither is my dog!* |

Woman trades 1914 Model T in for 2013 Corvette
Wed, 17 Apr 2013We're sure that dealers must see all sorts of interesting trade ins, but this one may take the cake. Red River Chevrolet in Bossier City, Louisiana, recently had a customer come in with an odd request. Tina Boyter wanted to trade in three vehicles on a brand-new 2013 Chevy Corvette. Among the hardware was 1980 Corvette, a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado and a 1914 Ford Model T. While the '80 Corvette had been her personal car for years, the '78 Eldorado had belonged to Boyter's mother before she traded up to a Lincoln. The big Caddy had just 10,290 miles on the clock when it was traded in.
And the Model T? Boyter says the car was built as a racer by Ford, and that it had been a show winner for years when it belonged to her father. But, after spending the last 16 years in a museum with its fluids drained, Boyter decided it was time to shed some of the past. She walked into the dealer, laid eyes on a white 2LT Corvette with a red interior and offered to trade all three of the vehicles in on the sports car.
Why not wait for the C7? "I fell in love with that one when I walked in the door," She said. We can't fault her there.
2015 Ford Mustang GT Line-Lock Burnout
Mon, 03 Nov 2014In this brief Short Cut, Autoblog's Steven Ewing demonstrates Line-Lock on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Accessed through an on-screen performance menu, the feature temporarily locks the front brakes to help you heat up the rear tires for better traction, as you would for drag racing. The result? A 15-second smokescreen.
2015 Ford F-Series Super Duty is class-leading once again
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Time for everyone to feign surprise - Ford has just announced that it has the increased horsepower and torque levels of its 6.7-liter Power Stroke turbodiesel V8 engine for 2015. As you'd expect, the Blue Oval is claiming class-leading figures of 440 hp (up from 400) and 860 pound-feet (up from 800), and that's enough to enable Ford's F-450 Super Duty model to tow as much as 31,200 pounds, which, again, the automaker claims is class leading.
Now, it should be noted that the max rating quoted above is achieved with the Ford F-450. The 2015 F-350, which is perhaps a better comparison to the Ram 3500 HD pickup that claimed the towing crown in 2013 at an even 30,000 pounds, is capped at 26,500 pounds, either with a gooseneck or when towing a fifth-wheel trailer. In any case, it's going to take a load the size of Godzilla to make any of the current crop of fullsize heavy-duty pickup trucks break into a sweat. For those keeping track, Chevy rates its 2015 Silverado HD at a maximum of 23,200 pounds.
Ford's newfound pulling power comes courtesy of a larger turbocharger for its in-house Power Stroke engine, new fuel injector tips and, we'd assume, retuned computer controls. Besides the engine enhancements, the F-350 gets a wider front track for 2015 and new front springs, while the F-450 gains commercial-grade 19.5-inch wheels and tires, new rear U-joints, leaf springs, stabilizer bars and shocks. The steering and brake systems have also been upgraded.
