 Here's a 2001 Ford Crown Victoria P71 Police Interceptor I purchased in MO a month or so ago.

The good:
Car runs and drives good.
The interior does not have lots of holes in it.
The interior is clean overall considering the car's age.
The seats are in good condition.
Since the car is from Missouri, overall the body is decent.  There are only a couple small bubbles that I saw and no rust holes.
The car got new spark plugs and one new coil last week.
The brakes are 40% in the front and 60% in the rear remaining.
The rear doors have all f the lock and latch mechanisms in them.  most cop cars do not.
I have a clean MN title in hand.
The plates and tabs were just purchased and are new.  No new tabs for a year!
Car has no major oil leaks or mechanical problems that I could find.
The ball joints and other front end parts feel good.

The bad:
Car has 142K miles on it, so everything is not "brand new" tight.  It has some rattles and squeaks.
The paint is not too good.  The black is faded and chalky. It is flaked in multiple spots.  It has some scratches and areas that are peeling.
The mismatched front paint is from the car being hit in the front.  It has no frame damage.  The only damage I saw remaining is the core support for the radiator is bent.  This does not affect the function of the car.
The roof has some small dents and holes in it from equipment.
The passenger front window goes up slowly.  It works, but needs help sometimes.
The tires are 30-40% remaining.
One rear inner door handle is broken.  Not the mechanism, just the handle.

If you are looking for a cheaper but reliable car to drive, this car is for you.  Keep in mind that this is a cheaper car that's 13+ years old.  So, it's not perfect.

I have described this car to the best of my knowledge and tried to point out any flaws that I could find.  Please email with questions before bidding.

Thanks for checking it out!!

2015 Ford Focus Electric hides in plain sight

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

The styling changes to the 2015 Ford Focus were shown off at the recent Geneva Motor Show, so what the EV version looks like is not that much of a surprise. Still, the 2015 Focus Electric is making its world debut here at the New York Auto Show, so we wanted to know what changes we are looking at compared to both the internal combustion engine version and the earlier EV models.
The exterior visual distinctions between the ICE and EV are minimal, and basically nonexistent from the A-pillar to the rear. Up front, you can see the charge port, of course, but the front fascia has also undergone a bit of an adjustment. The front doesn't have the ICE version's flattened grille and the EV's Ford logo creates a bump in the hood line where none exists on the ICE. The 2015's grille is also different than the one on the 2014 Focus Electric, being slightly smaller (you can see this better if you compare pictures in our new gallery above to these of the 2011 Focus Electric and these of the gas-powered 2015 Focus).
The updated 2015 interior - which we couldn't access ourselves - has things like a new center stack, improved cupholders and is basically identical between the gas and electric models. With the car off, you can't even tell if you're in an EV or ICE, Seema Bardwaj, the US brand manager for the Focus, told AutoblogGreen. The only things that are different, she said, are extra menu screens to show EV powertrain information to the driver.

Ford wins second consecutive International Van of the Year award with Transit Connect

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

The redesigned 2014 Ford Transit Connect isn't even on sale yet, but it's already making its presence felt around the world. At a commercial vehicle expo in Russia, the Transit Connect was named the International Van of the Year.
Ford's small work van edged out the new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter by just seven points to allow Ford to grab this honor for the second consecutive year, which it won last year with the Transit Custom. Not only does this make Ford the first to ever win the award in back-to-back years, but it's also the fifth time the automaker has won this award since 2003 (two with the Transit Connect, two with the fullsize Transit and once with the Transit Custom). Ford congratulates itself for the accomplishment in a press release posted below.

Ford will probably never offer two RS models at the same time

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Autocar has some sour news for fans of go-fast Ford products. According to Roelant de Waard, Ford's president of marketing in Europe, the automaker will probably never offer more than one RS performance model for sale at the same time. That statement runs contrary earlier rumblings that suggested Ford would launch its next-generation Focus RS in 2015 and follow the hatch with a spate of other vehicles with an RS badge. But de Waard has made it clear that Ford of Europe is now focused on squarely on the next Mustang, even though there may be more RS models on the way eventually.
"What is clear is that the RS shouldn't be a series, or a car badge that we have in our portfolio all the time. It is an extreme car - something more than ST," he said.
That philosophy makes plenty of sense. We loved the old Focus RS - shown above in RS500 trim - because it was generally bonkers and plenty exclusive. Diluting either aspect is sure to end in disappointment for everyone involved.
