The La Grange, Illinois (Cook County) Police Department is offering the following vehicle for sale by auction:

2009 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor Sedan 4-Door 4.6L with a mileage of 103,860 miles.

This vehicle is surplus property of the Village Of La Grange and MUST be sold according to Illinois law; it MUST be sold in an auction-type setting such as eBay.  There is NO Buy-It-Now option.  We will NOT accept any trades for this vehicle.  The vehicle is being sold AS IS and with NO existing warranty; neither express nor implied.  All sales are FINAL, NO returns will be accepted, and NO price adjustments will be given.  The vehicle will be sold to the highest bidder after the starting price has been satisfied.  There is NO reserve on this vehicle-the starting price is bottom line what we will accept for this vehicle-DO NOT MAKE AN OFFER!  If the vehicle does not sell, it will either be relisted or go to a public auction.

Again, the vehicle has 103,860 original miles.  The vehicle has no major damage or rust-just normal wear-n-tear scratches, dings, dents-again, nothing major.  The vehicle has power locks, windows, mirrors, trunk release, power driver's seat lumbar/recline, power cut-off switch (push switch and remove ignition key and car will stay on, however, car cannot be placed in drive and stolen until key is in ignition again), rear defrost, dome light, interior lights, and spotlight ALL IN GOOD WORKING ORDER.  The vehicle also has manual tilt steering wheel, power adjustable gas pedal, AM/FM stereo, and air conditioning is in good working order.  The vehicle is equipped with cruise control, however, we did not use it often and don't know if it still works (probably works).  The vehicle has driver's-side and passenger-side air bags.  The vehicle's exterior lights, lamps, signals, wipers, defrost, spotlight, etc. are all in working order.  There are no illuminated warning signs on in the dashboard indicating any malfunctions with the vehicle.  Lastly, the vehicle's tires are in good condition.

The vehicle shows normal wear-n-tear regarding scratches, dings, dents, however, again, there are NO major imperfections in the vehicle's body.  The exterior of the vehicles roof does have three holes that were drilled for a police light bar that was removed that are currently covered with gray tape.  The holes will need to be plugged by the winning bidder (available from an auto parts store).  The police decals have all been professionally removed from the exterior, however, glue is slightly visible.  A good detailing of the vehicle should eliminate the glue marks from the decals.  The interior roof liner has a small hole between the driver and passenger seats that once housed a police camera-now removed.  There is one tiny hole in the interior roof liner behind the dome light, barely visible.  The rear vinyl seat is brand new-never used.  When the vehicle was used as a police car, we had plastic seats in the rear and stored the vinyl seats-now placed back in the car.  The front cloth seats are in good condition but will need to be cleaned.  The vinyl flooring in the vehicle is in good condition, but will also need to be cleaned.  The following reflects the service record on the vehicle for "more major items:"

The tricky business of octane, power, and MPG

Thu, Aug 27 2015

Given tepid green-car sales numbers this year, consumers in the US aren't making the transition away from internal combustion engines too quickly. Regulations are still mandating cleaner emissions, though. In addition to downsizing and turbocharging, there's growing consideration about moving to higher-octane fuel to improve overall efficiency. In a new report, engineers at FCA, Ford and General Motors Powertrain are showing that it could work, too. The major advantage to higher-octane fuel is that it supports higher compression ratios. That in turn can lead to more power from burning the same amount of gas. "Higher ethanol content is one available option for increasing the octane ratings of gasoline and would provide additional engine efficiency benefits for part and full load operation," the researchers write in the study's abstract. The authors even think it could be possible to update some modern vehicles' engine calibration to be optimized for the better gas. While the benefits are there, we still have a long way to go before higher-octane fuel becomes a national standard. According to Green Car Congress, 87 percent of the gas sold in the US is regular grade 87-octane. Meanwhile, premium 91-93 octane makes up just 10 percent. The various grades of fuel illuminate even more annoyances with the current system. For example, Ford generally recommends 93-octane for EcoBoost engines, and the power outputs that the company publishes are based on using it. However according to Green Car Reports, such premium gas is very difficult to find in some regions of the US, especially along the West Coast. The powertrains still run on lesser grades but with lower power output. The researchers' discussion of possibly increasing ethanol in gas also comes during a heated debate on the substance. The current administration is pushing for less of the corn-based fuel in the coming years. Although, several presidential hopefuls might be favor of reversing that course.

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang to cost $52,995?

Mon, Dec 1 2014

The 2015 Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang was one of the shining stars of this year's Los Angeles Auto Show. And the Blue Oval's latest muscle car might even have reason to burn a little brighter if a recent rumor about its price proves true. Best of all are rumors that an even more potent version of the Shelby is potentially on the way. According to Horsepower Kings citing unnamed Ford sources at the LA Auto Show, the 2015 GT350 carries a starting price of $52,995, and the Tech package adds a further $2,995 on top of that. There's also the claim of a Track package for an undisclosed price. However, it doesn't look like LA is the last we'll see of the newest Shelby because the source also alleges that a top-rung GT350R is under development with bigger brakes, modified aerodynamics and sportier tires. This rubber-burner is reported to be unveiled at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January. Assuming these claims are correct, it puts the Shelby in fighting form against its two Chevrolet Camaro rivals. Ford reports that the GT350's 5.2-liter V8 pumps out over 500 horsepower and more than 400 pound-feet of torque. At $52,995, it would undercut by a couple of grand the $55,505 (before destination) base price of the 580-hp 2015 ZL1. The super 'Stang might also beat the 505-hp Z/28 with its power rating, while being vastly cheaper than the track-focused Camaro's $72,305 price. This could be quite the performance shoot-out.
