Own two Crown Vic's LX 2001 & 2008

2008 Ford Crown Victoria LX Fleet 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

The Crown Victoria is an iconic car. For long road trips and four trips around town this car has no competition. The Crown Victoria handles like a dream, it accelerates quickly into merging traffic on the freeway, it's a joy drive. It was a disappointment to see Ford just continue this car in 2011.

2010 Ford Crown Victoria LX Fleet 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

This car is large yet nimble and the performance police interceptor is fun to drive. got no problems passing people on the freeway, this is where she likes to stretch those legs. The cost for repairs is pretty cheap for a 2010 which I haven't had to do other then the blower motor easy to work on. To much to list about why I am happy with this car all I have to say is full frame and rear …

2007 Ford Crown Victoria Commercial Base Fleet 4dr Sedan SWB (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

This car runs like its brand new. It’s been well maintained and there are no leaks or squeaks. It’s fast too. The only issues are in HVAC - Heat and AC work but need fan (switch?) and blender door(Attenuator)

Love this car

2006 Ford Crown Victoria 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

Love this car in every way. I'm a tall guy so it has plenty of room. This is my second Vic. I will drive these cars until I can't find one anymore...Parts are cheap, easy to repair myself. Never had any Major problems. Recommend cross drilled rotors and ceramic/ Kevlar pads. Made this beast stop like a smaller ride. Happy driving!
