Cvpi: I've been doing this for 20+ years so I'm passing the torch to you to do the same.
Fpis: Understood I'll give it my best to make you proud.
Pursuit: "I hate people..." Such an angry cruiser. 😂
Seriously, I have a 06' Pursuit, 14' FPIS, and a 03' P71.
@@karrkraft893 which one do you like better?
Looks like you got over 100 likes!! Bring on part 2!! 👍👍 Personally I love both cars 👍👍 They are both sweet rides..
I love police Ford
I rather have the crown Victoria. It's much easier and less expensive to fix.
I agree with you on both accounts, but I think it's a stronger and more versatile vehicle all around also.
I have several police cars (2 CVPIs & 3 FIPSs) of both platforms and the Taurus's are super fast,and full of gadgets.....kinda like a smartphone with twin turbos(a techies dream car),and the Crown Vic's are kinda primitive and practical,like a good old Rambo survival knife.
(But I wouldn't recommend bringing a smartphone📱 to a knife⚔ fight..
I love me some WFO howling 4.6 throttle body and whirring overrun alternator pulley sounds during 7000rpm shifts to get the attention of anyone in a 4 block radius anyday.
If you want a car that knows all the tricks.........
......stick with the Crown Vics!!!!🚓💨👍
@@skeetermcswagger0U812 most people don't know this but the crown Victoria is really a F-150 . It can pull just as much as the truck can and the frame is just as strong if not stronger . Police cars are built tuff .
@@benjimenfranklin7650 that's funnnnnnny,...but true enough.
I say that all the time myself. ☝️😉🚓💨🇺🇸
@@skeetermcswagger0U812 then think about this . There are very few cars in the world that can pull a trailer with a tractor on it but the crown Victoria can and very well too. They use to build cars like that back in the sixties that could pull a small house trailer but not anymore.
Spot on! The crown vic is a dream to work on compared to a new taurus!
Crown Vic was full frame. Cannot best that fir durability. Push bar on a unibody? Not the best idea.
Hands down crn vic over all superior to the sedan!
I'm still crown vic all the way. Great video bro keep it up. Still saving for my Vic. She's already picked out. Just saving the money to buy it.
I'm glad you made this cause I searched it up last week and could only find a drag race
Sheriff's Deputy here. I have driven Crown vics, chargers, Impalas, Police interceptor SUV's, Police Interceptor Sedans, HUMVEE's and many others in the line of duty. At 2AM all alone in the middle of nowhere hauling ass down a gravel road I definitely prefer a good ol' Crown Vic. Chargers have a better get up and go but are hard to see out of, especially with a cage.
Crown Victoria FTW, Hands down best Police car ever made 💪👏👏
No, the caprice was way better- even thought I like CVPI more.
Chevy is gay
@@ezrabegin8234 I don't think Chevy is gay at all, it's just a little bi
QCM ok maybe I was a bit harsh but I just hate how many people dislike fords I mean the both have there pros and cons
@@ezrabegin8234 i was raised in a GM family and I have a couple GM hotrods.. but I love my daily driver p71 crown vic. It's quit comparable to the Caprice 9c1 I use to have. Both great cars, and legendary police cruisers.
great video. I agree with your points... the Crown Vic is bigger and incredibly reliable while the Taurus is newer and more high tech. I always prefer driving V8's over V6's because the V6's seem like they need to be revved up quite a bit to get any acceleration whereas the V8 doesn't take much pedal to get going. For me the MPG ends up being the same.
I agree with you there I had a northstar cadillac before which was at wot faster. However in the city my cvpi is more responsive and quicker to shift with only light throttle input.
My 09 and 2010 CVPI both got 24mpg rural and 22 mpg mixed with teens in heavy city driving. EPA says 21mpg highway. Seriously? Mayby at 130mph. At 65mph typical interstate speed 24+ mpg all day.
I love my Crown Vic.
They are nice, but crown vic doesn't have the $1500 water pump failure
you're right, they have a $1,500.x Intake failure.
Intakes on cvp71 is only $160 not $1500 unless you dont know how to fix one which a 10yr.old can do.I had my nephew install one just to teach him mechanics.Since I learned @ his age.
Otaku Bryson Just FYI, intakes don’t crack anymore on the ‘07 and newer. And that's like still no comparison to fix the water pump on a duratec v6.
@@ziggy3237 lol fanboy much? 150 bucks for a new intake bro
Brian Skinner You must have gotten ripped. You can get these fixed much cheaper or do it yourself. Don’t be so damn gullible chick.
I love them both, and the older versions from the 90's. I think they should have made a police-package for the Taurus in the 2000's too. They are my dream cars.
The Vic.
My first car is a crown vic, I still have it and still drive it regularly! Long live the crown vic!
What sucks is there’s not many people that do videos on police interceptors. Awesome video as always dude
Really because iv found countless channels and videos about the subject. You know that search button at the top of CZcams? That's how you find new content.
Springwood Slasher I have like 26k subs, I know how CZcams works lmao. But he is like the only main channel that posts regularly
@@JoeyRichard omg am I supposed to be impressed? There are actual cop car channels that post videos just as much as this little junior bacon cheeseburger so I guess you just suck at searching. Judging by your content I can see why you have trouble using the search engine.
@@JoeyRichard you made a 100 percent bullshit video claiming you spent 10k on a mystery box. People dont like liars. What a fucking joke you are.
@@springwoodslasher79 All this because I said there's not many channels that do vids on police interceptors. Which is a fact..if there is, they have like 8 subscribers which is horrendous.
Great comparison/review 👍 looking forward to the next video. Keep up the great work!
Ture that hands down crown vic is the best police car ever but I dont mind the new police cars but over all hands down the crown vic is the most reliable police car I have a 2011 crown vic out of long beach PD in California
I’ll take the sho 365 hp awd great sleeper car👍good vid
I hear you for a new vehicle. Then a twin turbo+awd= big potential for high maintenance after 100k.
I just bought a 2002 Crown Vic for 150 bucks. I just need to replace the pcm (30 bucks used) and an ignition coil (30 bucks new). The customer didn't want to fix it and signed the title over to the shop instead of paying for diagnosis. I'm the senior tech there so I have dibs on stuff like that. I'm going to have some fun with this one. Nothing beats a V8 American cruiser!!! Cool video! Thank you!
Both fine rides unless you are passenger in cuffs in back seat.lol good video good information
My family has a 2003 Ford Crown Victoria P71 and 2013 Ford Taurus Civilian (2.0 4-cyl EcoBoost). I prefer the Crown Victoria's ride. I don't like the light feel to the Taurus. It's interesting because the Taurus is certainly not light. The Taurus blind spots are a pain when trying to back out of a parking spot so I make it a point to back in a parking spot. We're getting 27.5 MPG average with the Taurus and 21 MPG avg with the Crown Victoria. There's already a rattling noise in the dash of the Taurus at 54k miles. There's no rattling in the Crown Victoria almost at 124k miles. I do believe that the Crown Victoria is much less maintenance and cheaper to maintain. And it's tough. I question the Taurus. Transmission is acting funny.
4cy that gets v6 mpg? My 07 impala i owned back in 09-2011 got a consistent 27mpg commuting to work for the 60-70,000 miles I owned it. My Police and civilian crown Victorias both get 22-24mpg mixed. CVPI gets 24mpg highway civilian gets a solid 30mpg at legal 65-70 mph. Not impressed with EcoBoost mpg honestly. What do you think of the EB in the Taurus?
November 2022 and the Louisville PD still has many CVPI on the road. I love my 2011.
#teamcrownvic
I spent 5 years in a crown Vic, biggest issue aside from normal wear oil brakes and tires was the ac fan went out about once a year. $35-50 fix and ten minutes to take out and replace. More room hip head and knee, slower on the start and floats like a boat at 100+mph
Drove a Taurus interceptor for 6 weeks, miserable to get in and out of for a tall person, fast off the line and hugged the turns like a boss. I gave it back and asked for my 7 year old crown Vic back because I’m 6’6” and getting in and out of the Taurus and constantly sitting with my knees in the dash made me miserable.
The improved ride comfort comes from the unibody structure and four wheel independent suspension for the Ford Police Interceptor Sedan. A stiffer, stronger platform with fully independent suspension will typically be a more comfortable riding vehicle.
Excellent video which is why I subscribed.
Although the crown Vic is and always will be the king of cop cars, I’d say the Taurus is the more practical option for the money. I just purchased a ‘14 Interceptor Sedan with 121K miles and I couldn’t be more happy with it. I looked at both this and the crown Vic and the main reasons I chose the Sedan over the vic was that for a $1000 price difference you got: a modern car, good crash ratings and safety features, more horsepower, all wheel drive, and traction control/stability control which is a must out here in the Midwest. Be aware when you buy these cars that the water pump will most likely go out at about 80K miles. This is the stuff carfax doesn’t tell you. I’d recommend running the VIN through your local ford dealership and getting the detailed service log, mine went out at 75K miles and was replaced by the department while it was in service. Look for cars that were used in a small town/ detective cars as these are better maintained than a large city or county. And finally, besides any obvious cosmetic and mechanical flaws, look for ones with low idle hours. I love my Interceptor and I’d highly recommend it as a first, (relatively) inexpensive car
I value the durability of my Crown Vic far more than I would value its replacement that only has a smidge more power, safety and comfort.
I have a 99 Crown Vic. Love it.
It is now mid June of 2020, and exactly one week ago, I saw a still in service, fully marked Crown Victoria Police Interceptor! It blew my mind, and I couldn't believe what I was seeing! I haven't seen one still in service since about mid year last year, 2019.
On live PD Nevada is still running a 98-02 crown Vic as a daily patrol car.. It's 18 years old at least. That says alot. There's a reason there is so many Crown Vics still in police service.. great cars. Super reliable. Easy and somewhat inexpensive to maintain. . I have an 04 p71 detective car. Love it.
@notoriouscvpi Great video. As an owner of both, I have to say the one glaring difference between them both is one you skipped over. The *all wheel drive* offered on the Taurus Interceptor platform is a real game changer. It's one of the main reasons a lot of departments in the Northeast have gone with them and the Explorers instead of other makes. The obvious cons are that the Taurus engines are manufactured with a lot of the systems like the water pump and power steering pump inside the engine. Which makes a routine failure of one of these a monster in labor and repair and down time.. I could replace both of these in under an hour on any Crown Vic. The other issue is wheel hubs that fail around 30-60k or so miles. They're a pain and really labor intensive to change out. Another plus or two for CVPI owners was the on board fire suppression units that some vics had when they were ultimately auctioned off, as well as the stab resistant (from the rear) front seats and in door Kevlar ballistic (bulletproof) panels.. no such luck will you find with any Taurus that makes it to a police auction. I do however like the slide out equipment tray Ford provides in the "Ready for the Road" package.
P71 panther 2007 checking in.
That is not a 2011 Crown Vic. First it doesn't have the huge headrests implemented in 2011. The window switches are not the newer flush design. Also no adjustable petals.
I drive a Vic with a laptop mount. Also included in the center are two generous cup holders, a large cargo area, a 7'tft monitor for the dvr system, and plenty of arm room.
Both are cool cars.
Nice rosary man
Nice review!
John Gragg Thanks!
@@NotoriousCVPI It's going to be a little while but I would like to get a police interceptor...obviously...it's a tough choice...I like them both!!
I've got a 13 FPIS Ecoboost, I had a 05 CVPI. I prefer the FPIS over the CVPI anyday! A lot more power and much more fun to drive! Did I mention it's faster? Plus a lot better fuel mileage when I'm not being a lead foot. Only thing I've had to get done is the water pump which is common on the 3.5 EcoBoost Engines at around 100k. Currently have 116k
I envy you over that 3.5 EcoBoost. Take me for a ride. Lol
Love mine 13 ford police interceptor 3.5 twin turbo, but I bought it from a bad department treated rough I believe, but it is loved
Also, you did an excellent job on this video. Can we see a comparison of the Taurus Interceptor and Explorer Interceptor? Maybe a mashup of the Crown Victoria, Explorer and Taurus Interceptors? I think it would be pretty cool. I liked how you mentioned the power, weight, measurements, etc. The numbers are interesting to me. Thanks for such an informative video.
you can 100% get a taurus with a stab proof rear seat and ballistic panels up to lvl 3 from an auction if you look hard enough
I own like 20 Crown vic's
No you don't, it's 15 Lars
Stop being Gay Lars! Is this why you're not in the studio tonight? You don't even own a Crown vic?!??
STOP IT GUYS!!!!
@@cliffburton5704 lol
In 2016 Ford got their act together when it came to headlight brightness. In the Interceptor Utilitiy and Taurus they included LED headlights and taillights which was a huge improvement. Overall the Taurus is good for city departments and state patrol use. They aren't as spacious as the Exploders but are similar interior wise and get you where you want to go. I personally wouldn't own a former police car because I know first-hand how they are driven. Have fun with your car!
My 2009 CVPI was just stolen out of my apartment complex's parking lot yesterday :-(...As someone who's on disability, it's a real kick in the gut. Never had a car stolen from me before. It really sucks.
YO SAID HE GETTING BETTER MPG THAN WHAT THEY SHOWCASE AS BRAND NEW 😂😂😂 YOU DEF PUTTING 100 ON 10
I got a 2008 cvpi when I was 17. Got an FPIU had it for 3 years and had to buy another crown Vic. I daily the fpiu but the crown Vic is the best
You can can get there fast but the question is WHAT can you do when you get there? Crown Vic P.I.T. vs Taurus P.I.T.
36 likes and counting!!!!!🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨........let's go!!!!
I have owned a dozen plus Vics. Love them. Recently drove a Taurus was impressed with the speed and handling. The downside the windows are too small causing blind dpots.
Im new here and when i clicked on your video it reminded me of Polcat324. Im not sure if you know of this CZcamsr but intro is very similar lol.
In 1996, the Ford Crown Victoria P71 had a top speed of 132 mph with the 210 hp 4.6 V/8 (non-governed) It is conceivable that if the upgrade driveshaft was used in place of the aluminum, top speed with the 250 hp could hit 135 to 137 ungoverned in 2004 to 2011. I once saw a 4 valve Marauder 4.6 put in a P71 Crown Victoria going around the track at 146-8 mph top end. Unfortunately, the front air dam would deform badly (pucker up toward the bottom of the radiator) greatly affecting the aerodynamics.
Take a shot every time he says “uhm”
Bruh, my 3.27 geared Vic was limited to 141 and had the aluminum driveshaft package. Was a 2004 sherrifs car. Open diff. 0-60 7.5 seconds flat. I love the vid ty for posting.
My dad has a 03 crown victoria p71 it can do 0-60 in 7.5 seconds which is pretty amazing for how heavy the car is, true frame and the 4.6 dates back to 1992 lol
I have a 2013 FPIS 3.5L V6 AWD got it direct from the RCMP up here in Canada, it was well maintained i called the shop that took care of it and it was in regularly for mait. It has 217000+ Kilometers on it the only thing ive had to do to it was get indicators replace a wheel bearring and i just did a oil change on it last night, Im taking it to ford tomorrow to have the Fuel Pump control module replaced in it for free, its working fine but since it's free why not. other than those minor issues it's been running good, im not expecting to not have to sink money into it down the road but they're pretty solid.and for what i paid for it from the goverment vs what it'd go for at a dealer or private seller i aint complaining.
I'd always choose the crown vic. Those and a grand Marquis are ridiculously tough. I was in 5 bad wrecks in my grand Marquis and it was fine.
The c.v. was built to last and be cheap and easy to rebuild replace parts. The new interceptors, K8a ( explorer) and taurus are built to be disposable after 100k miles not requiring rebuilding and less maintenance. Where I live the officers like the awd over the rwd. The taurus is hard for bigger officers to get out of quickly. We gave all the taurus to detectives and keep the explorers on patrol. The newer units do have their flaws, you mentioned the fuel pump driver issue, plus ptu issues, cat converters going out and the newest is the exhaust manifolds cracking causing exhaust to get into the cabin. Overall the newer units are faster, safer and cost effective for cities and the officers are happy with the change for the most part. In my city that is lol.

Skeeter McSwagger I like that enthusiasm!
@@NotoriousCVPI Yup!!!
With your videos and my video it's gonna be on like Donkey Kong!!!! Nobody's gonna have any questions to ask anymore about these cars except "Where do I sign up and where do I get my car!"
We're gonna get some haters though because we're gonna increase the blue book value of all Ford police interceptors on the planet(CVPI & FIPC & FIPU)!
So anybody out there who's been wanting to get one you better get it soon because the prices are going to go up!!!!
🤑🇺🇸🚔🚔🚔🚓🚓🚓🇺🇸🤑
You do know they make the 3.5L AWD NON TURBO RIGHT?
Holy fucking shit if i took a drink everytime he said umm id drink $2000 worth of alcohol
Dude I heard there’s a headlight level adjustment under the hood to help with your headlight problem
16.6 cubic of cargo space? The civilian Taurus is closer to 20. Where'd those 4 cubic go?
It's sad that There is one unfortunate commonality between the Taurus and the crown vic they are both now discontinued seems like everytime ford has a good reliable cop car that everyone buys and somewhat likes they discontinue them I've always loved the Taurus interceptor but nothing will ever replace the crown vic and the original 80s and 90s caprice 9c1s these two cars are the face of american law enforcement and authority
crown vic is a iconic car, but id have to take the fpis over one... body on frame is uhh... yea.
As you so rightly pointed out, there are many advances, which come through modern automotive advancements, technology, and engine research. Thank you so much for sharing this! However, the CV was, obviously, not the fastest, the most technologically advanced, etc... That is not what made it the best law enforcement vehicle of all time! What made it work so well for cops, is the comfort and tank-like reliability! At three in the morning, when traveling down an extremely rural muddy country road, it performed like a truck! When sitting for hours on end on another 12 hour surveillance shift, it never overheated and served as our comfortable office! When transitioning from relatively idle speed neighborhood patrols straight into a balls to the walls, code three response or high-speed pursuit, it did so as if intuitively designed equally for both! When performing a PIT maneuver on another vehicle, it’s stance and balance was unrivaled! The CV just performed and worked, day in and out without hesitation! It is like the Glock pistol... Not the most accurate, not the best in marksmanship competitions, but, when your life depends on a firearm, right now, this second... It works, always!!! That was the CV police interceptor!
I've got the 2010 MKS with the 3.5L Ecoboost at 355HP. I have no idea what Lincoln did to make it slightly slower than the SHO and Interceptor with what appears to be the same drivetrain, but I'm telling you, that car is a ton of fun! Definitely opt for the Ecoboost when you get the opportunity!
I have a couple 2015 3.5 EcoBoost Ford Interceptor Patrol Sedans
The difference is in the PCM mainly.....
The SHO and FIPS(twin turbo) engines are identical to your motor otherwise. BUT.....the MKS and the SHO are both limited to approximately 112 mph while the Police version has 370hp and will do 148mph all day long.(don't ask me how I know,just look at top speed runs on my channel☝️)
You should look up tuning options for your car thru Livernous in Atlanta Georgia. They will give you all the stuff to make your MKS an F-16......seriously check them out!
@@skeetermcswagger0U812 Sounds like a winner I may just look into that ECU tune. Though you might wanna check your numbers again on it topping out at 112mph, cause on several occasions I can confirm I've had my MKS at over 120mph I personally start getting nervous and slow it down from there lol but goddamn that thing still has life in it like it can pull way past that. Unless mine has already been tuned before I got it... don't know. But I love telling people "Starship Enterprise, preparing for launch" right before I mash the throttle to get on the e-way lol. Do you know if such a tune would require any special care in how you drive, or maintenance at all?
@@man_on_wheelz I meant 122 mph should be the top speed on your MKZ...... and no there shouldn't be any additional maintenance or servicing other than an upgrade to a K&N air filter (its reusable),you can run an aftermarket thermostat, and a higher pressure/output mechanical fuel pump and if you upgrade your injectors for an E85 tune (you have to change injectors cause the twin Turbo Eco boost motors can't be run on E85) E85 is actually a performance boost if the car is capable of being used with the 85 which it's not in stock form.....and sinse it's a DTI (direct injection) motor I would also recommend a oil separator/catch can for longevity to keep carbon buildup from blow-by to a minimum.
Another two cool modifications that aren't necessarily performance mods are muffler deletes and BOV(blow-off valve) delete to atmosphere.
Both of which make the car sound amazing!!!!
if you check it out on my channel you'll be able to hear what both mods do.
@@skeetermcswagger0U812 I really hate that Lincoln went with MK letters for names cause people always get it wrong or hear it wrong lol, mine is the MKS, the big boy. Every time I try to get parts for it they think I said MKX, ughhh… guess it's a thing I gotta deal with owning this car. But anyway, I do like the sleeper status of my car, so I don't think I'll ever get into exhaust and blow-off valves, but everything else sounds good, I'll keep this in mind if I ever consider tuning it, thanks for your input. I'll browse your channel too, it's nice to see my motor doing work when someone gets a chance to open it up.
@@man_on_wheelz well you'll have to excuse my typos I'm dyslexic as hell and the voice to text apparently doesn't like the way me spoke about 1/2 of the time so I finally get tired of editing sometimes and I don't think anyone is going mistaken me for a college student anyway. 🤣😁☝️
Hellcat is faster they make hellcat cop cars now
True in limited numbers, have fun with maintenance though. Besides the speed limitations city patrols have, negating the usefulness and leaving simply bragging rights of sheer power. Won't see many Hellcat's 8 years later still in service, well in service bays maybe.
Interestingly enough the CVPI and the FPIU 3.7L have the exact same 0-60 time, 7.99 seconds. Pretty interesting.
Love the Vic, very roomy
I have a 08 cvpi aftermarket headers a throttle body spacer and after market air intake my 0-60 is 7.12 thinking about a nitro boost as well
100 likes? Ur kidding U got 11k subs man
Are you guys why do you guys still have the lights and the bumper on the front
lol i just got a 2011 p7b a month or 2 ago so did my buddy, we both paid 2750 for ours.. ever since then i havent seen one for sale for less than 5k. if there have been they sell within an hour lol! get one while u can cause i feel like they are about to skyrocket in price
The police officers I have spoken to not one likes the Taurus they want their Crown Vics back. No room for equipment inside.
I have driven a Taurus and own a Vic and Marauder I find them much more comfortable ride.
Taurus police sales fall far below the Vic sales. Chargers continue to have problems along with the turbo Explorers according to officers I spoke with.
Many departments still holding on to their Vics keeping them in service.
If it aint broke dont fix it.
both are good looking sedans
i'll take one of them any day over an suv
I own a 2002 and 2003 Ford Taurus. I drive the same car Robocop. like the style of the new Taurus.
Booth my Taurus' s have the Vulcan iron engine. With a little work I plan on boosting up the engine.
There you go 114 likes!!!!!!
BAM!!!!
2010 p7b 300 hp 315 Torque 0-60 6.9 secs
I’ve got a Vic I may be getting a Taurus
Now all police interceptors are gonna be suv, mostly Ford Explorer. SUVs are less intimidating than low and wide sedan and that’s the main point of a police car.
I think you're right I notice far more push bars on the city patrol suv's than the cv's they replaced. Many cv still in daily use though.
535 likes!!!! Yikes!!!!
You better be making that comparison video soon or ima gunna come over and borrow that pushbar for Roxanne until you do!!!
😂🤣😃😀😁😁🚔🚓💨
the crown vic can still be in service for DECADES Heck i bet in 20 to 30 years from now they'll still be in service, thanks the the indestructible 4.6l v8 and the body on chassis construction.
I can tell you this crown Vic is a lot bigger and more room inside
You have Nice Crown victoria.
Let’s see a Ford Taurus with 150k plus’s miles. Probably check engine light on and running like crap.
Old skool krown vic
I'm building a transmission and built motor mustang long tubes cams high compression I also have Mercury Marauder parts to do a built motor 4 valve swap
I have to correct you it depends on what a department needs in performance and how a Crown Victoria is Tuned and geared, 119 is not the top speed, My 2008 I personally went to 130 mph, and had to back her down but still had plenty to give
FPIS to drive, but CVPI to own. Or FPIU if you really, really want to look like a cop...
Really when they came out everyone was bashing them and I told them thats because no one will think your a cop in your vic anymore...they got mad
Is your coolant low?
My dad's p-71 tops out at 140mph
I love the ford crown Victoria.
There bulletproof.
Do you still have your white one?
We have the 2018 3.7 awd interceptors. I prefer our 2010 Vic’s. In a patrol setting the awd gets horrible gas mileage I honestly get better in our Vic’s with 3.55 gears. The 3.7 is just a high rev engine in my opinion the Vic I can get in the power band quicker.
Yup 2wd with some form of limited slip and dedicated winter tires will perform much better than people would think. i3.7 is wot quicker but it requires heavy input to get up to it's powerband. The vic can take light to mid throttle for brief sprints, the 3.7 has to be virtually floored.
I like my 2000 mileage is nice on the highway, tough car too the p71 is a tough and reliable car and is a classic now. I love my car. Im not a cop though i just like a cheap tough solid car and i love muscle its my baby.
Next gen interceptor is way better with the AWD
Wrong the Crown Victoria is not 2011. The door master switch and headrest does not resemble 2011 model year, This vic is either 06 07 or 08.
That's what I was gonna say. The door moldings are different too. That's not a 2011.
Always wondered why ford didnt use the 4V and 3.55 gears as standard police equipment.
I've had a couple 4v 4.6 and it is more complicated and unlikely to have the durability or ease of repair. They drive almost in the cars not suv's opposite of 4.6 2v which has low and mid and drops off toward redline. The 4v feels lazier without a much heavier foot low rpm but keeps pulling up through the range. Initial cost however kept the 32v from even getting that far in the realm of possibility.
Take that necklace down from your back mirror and tint those windows for your new car
The vic interceptor the best. Full frame best safety .
wonder if someone has looked into 5or6spd swapping the interceptor sedan
and its flat where u live im in the mountains and my SHO gets 17 mpg
