This is a former Department of Homeland Security supervisor's vehicle from Texas. I purchased it in September, 2013 with approximately 12,500 miles on it and it currently has 15,705 miles on it. I may add a few miles on it just to keep it running but it isn't a daily driver. The tires are Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and are in excellent condition with lots of tread left. There is a full size spare and jack which are both brand new. This is the supervisors package police interceptor with the upgraded radio (CD doesn't work but radio does), cruise control, hubcaps, and door side moulding on all 4 doors. The only things wrong with the car are the CD player and the tire pressure monitoring light is on. I checked the tire pressure and it is fine, my mechanic said it means the batteries are dead in the tire pressure monitoring system and there isn't any need to replace them until you change the tires. The motor oil is still good, the car has cold A/C and good heat, good headlights, good wiper blades, etc. there is nothing you need to do this car to get it road worthy. The interior is immaculate with no rips or tears like you would see in most police cars. Also no holes were drilled in it so you don't have ugly holes inside or outside. The Texas vehicle inspection and registration are still valid until 8/14 and 9/14 (respectively). As you know, the police interceptors have the heavy duty suspension and parts in it for extended service life.

Buyer agrees to pay for shipping at their expense from zip code 78613 (near Austin, Texas), or agrees to pick up locally. Also buyer agrees to pay for any registration or sales taxes payable to transfer registration over to their ownership. I have a clean Texas title in hand.

This is an extremely low mileage police interceptor (I put a Crown Victoria logo on it so as not to have "police" written on the car, but it is easily removed and changed) and this car is no longer made by Ford.

Test drives only for locals who have $10k cash in hand and a valid Drivers License. Otherwise inspection only by appointment. Car is located at my mechanic's business if you want to pay them for a PPI. PPI's are welcomed so long as the vehicle does not leave the property.

NOTE: AUTOCHECK indicates a possible odometer rollback. this is not the case. when the vehicle was originally sold from Homeland Security the clerk did not read the decimal in the odometer and thus overreported the mileage. thus, "11,503.3" became "115,033". this is a digital odometer, not sure how these things can be rolled back.

It has 1152 hours on the idle meter.

Ford is recalling more Takata airbag-equipped Ford and Lincoln models

Thu, Mar 2 2017

The Basics: Takata, the beleaguered airbag supplier at the root of the largest recall in automotive history, has informed Ford of a problem with the airbags in just over 30,000 Ford and Lincoln models. The problem is not related to the non-desiccated ammonium nitrate airbag inflators that plague the other airbags ( including many Fords), meaning there isn't a risk of shrapnel flying out from the units in this particular recall. The Problem: In the event of an accident, the front airbags may only partially inflate, and the airbag may become detached from the module because of misaligned parts. The problem affects 2016 and 2017 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX models built at the Oakville Assembly Plant. The issue also affects 2017 Lincoln Continentals that were built at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Injuries/Deaths: In a release, Ford stated that it is not aware of any accidents, injuries, or deaths related to the airbag issue. The Fix: Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag module at no cost. If You Own One: Sit tight and wait for Ford to notify owners. When that happens, take your car to the dealer for a replacement. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

FBI investigating recently fired Ford engineer for espionage

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

Agents of the FBI are investigating a potential case of industrial espionage involving a recently fired Ford employee. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer had its world headquarters searched by FBI agents on July 11, and according to The Detroit News, had warrants to seize recording devices handed over to Ford by Sharon Leach, a now-former Ford engineer.
Leach, who had spent 17 years with the Blue Oval, was fired last month, after Ford Security relieved her of eight Sansa listening devices. The FBI got involved shortly after her dismissal, searching her home on June 20 and seizing some two dozen items, including computers, jump drives and financial records, according to warrants obtained by The News.
Ford has remained quiet on the matter, with spokeswoman Susan Krusel confirming that the automaker was working with the FBI as part of a "joint investigation," while declining to provide any additional details.

U.S. auto sales fall in July, as Detroit dials back on inventory, rental sales

Tue, Aug 1 2017

DETROIT — U.S. carmakers said on Tuesday they continued to slash low-margin sales to daily rental fleets in July as General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles struggled to curb a slide in retail sales. July is on track to be the fifth straight month in which the annual pace of car and light truck sales declined from the same month a year ago, in part because of fewer fleet sales, analysts and industry executives said. July 2016 sales hit a strong 17.9-million-vehicle pace. GM said the seasonally adjusted annual sales rate fell to an estimated 16.9 million vehicles in July. At midmorning on Tuesday, GM shares were down 3.4 percent at $34.77, Ford was down 2.8 percent at $10.91, and Fiat Chrysler shares were down 0.3 percent at $12.05 in New York. GM sales dropped 15 percent from a year ago to 226,107 vehicles, as the company cut rental fleet sales more than 80 percent. The automaker said inventories of unsold vehicles at month's end were 104 days, down from 105 days at the end of June. GM has promised investors to reduce inventories to 70 days by year-end. Ford said its July sales dipped 7.5 percent to 200,212 vehicles, as it cut fleet sales more than 26 percent. Inventories fell to 77 days from 79 the previous month. Fiat Chrysler said sales dropped 10 percent to 161,477, as it also cut back sales to daily rental fleets. Among the top Japanese companies, only Toyota reported a year-to-year gain, with sales up 4 percent to 222,057 Â— just 4,000 units behind GM. Honda sales were down 1 percent to 150,980 Â— its first-quarter sales continuing to decline in North America but seeing a big increase in China. And Nissan sales fell 3 percent to 128,295. GM, Ford and Fiat Chrysler have cautioned that second-half financial results likely will be lower than first-half results, in part reflecting production cuts in North America and pricing pressures. The automakers this year have been deliberately dialing back sales to rental-car companies, which often generate little to no profit, while struggling to keep retail sales from sagging further, according to industry analysts. Industry consultant LMC cut its full-year forecast for new vehicle sales to 17 million vehicles. Automakers sold a record 17.55 million vehicles in the United States in 2016.
