 Selling my cream puff 2005 Ford Crown Victoria LX Sport. I am the 3rd owner of the car (original owners always serviced the car at Ford). It has always been a civilian car and I ALWAYS had the car serviced at Ford (records on request). Current odometer reading at 119700. The car is the Sport Edition which has numerous differences and upgrades from any of the other Crown Victoria models. The color is dark toreador. Differences are as follows:

revised springs, shocks, and stabilizer bars.
17" alloy 5-spoke wheels (currently has 18" Mustang Fan blades professionally powdercoated)
rear air suspension.
leather seating - front bucket seats
monochromatic exterior paint.
center console with floor shift.
3.27 RAR - open differential.
dual exhaust

I have been the current owner for the past 4 years and have added some upgrades and accessories. I have not done anything to alter the integrity of the motor. Here is the list of the current additions:

18" Mustang Fan Blade rims wrapped in new (20k miles) BF Goodrich tires $1500
Upgraded to a custom 1.5" exhaust done by Eddies Speedshop in Phoenix $800
2 new stainless steel Flowmaster 40 mufflers $400
2 new Magnaflow Hi-flow Cats w/ new O2 sensors $800
Custom powdercoated exhaust tips $200
Ford Racing rear differential cover $150
Ford mud flaps $50
1.5" front-end lowering springs by Eaton $300
front Mach-1 chin spoiler $200
Ford trunk organizer $350----also have a trunk liner I would throw in (not in use) $100
Husky all-weather mats in the front and back $200
new Ford headlights and side marker $300
front and rear dashmats $100

The car has been meticulously maintained, but I would like to mention 2 extremely minor blemishes on the exterior. There is 50-cent piece size "crackle" in the clear coat on the trunk and minor puncture on the rear bumper. Also, the rear backseat has some blemishes on the leather seats (I have never tried to clean it because the rear seats have always been covered with towels to protect from my kids.

I have the clear title on-hand. Asking $6000 OBO.  All respectful offers will be considered.  There will be a non-refundable $500 deposit at the end of the auction and the remaining balance will be paid in full within the next 7 days after receiving the deposit.  If the car is being shipped, I will overnight the title after receiving the remaining balance for the car.  If the car is being picked up locally, I will only accept a cashiers check.  There are no warranties on the car and is sold as is.  Once the car is purchased it is no longer my responsibility.  I will do everything I can to help assist in a local pickup or shipment.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.

Second-tier UAW workers promoted for first time after Ford hits quota

Mon, Feb 2 2015

The United Auto Workers put out a statement on Friday that 55 Ford workers chosen by seniority would be moved from the Tier 2, entry-level pay rate of around $19 per hour to the Tier 1, non-entry-level rate of about $28 per hour. One of the stipulations in the 2011 UAW-Ford agreement was that only 20-percent of the total hourly workforce could be paid the Tier 2 wages agreed upon in 2007; after that, those workers had to be moved to Tier 1. Even so, the new Tier 1 status makes them less expensive to Ford than veteran Tier 1 workers because they receive fewer benefits. However, Automotive News had reported that same day that Ford was 69 workers shy of the limit, and when AN asked Ford about the situation Ford said it had "some room" on the entry-level roster. If workers do move to the higher pay grade, it will be the first time that's happened since the two-tier system was agreed. But it sounds like there's going to be some haggling between the UAW and Ford before that happens. Ford is the only one of the Detroit 3 automakers to have to work with a cap, since it didn't go through bankruptcy proceedings during The Great Recession; General Motors and Chrysler jettisoned the cap in 2009. GM is said to have 16 percent of its hourly workers at Tier 2 while Chrysler has 42 percent, but Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has long been opposed to the two-wage system. The UAW is preparing for its 2015 negotiations with the US automakers. It wants to eliminate the difference in pay by going to the higher scale, if there is a consensus among automakers it seems to be that they also want a single wage, but less than the higher scale, with the addition of profit-based bonuses. The recent statement from the labor union is below. UAW President Dennis Williams and UAW-Ford Vice President Jimmy Settles announced today that the union is delivering on its promise to convert workers DETROIT, Jan. 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- UAW President Dennis Williams and UAW-Ford Vice President Jimmy Settles announced today that the union is delivering on its promise to convert workers making entry-level wages to traditional employees. "The 2011 UAW-Ford agreement allows for a contractual limit of entry-level employees. Once that threshold is surpassed, entry-level employees convert by seniority to 'regular, non-entry level employment.' At this time, fifty-five UAW-Ford workers will receive the wage increases, which put them in the category of non entry-level employment.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
