The last model year for the iconic Foxbody, R.I.P 1979-1993, the Crown Victoria took the place of the Mustang in 1992 when it was first released with the Police Interceptor badging.
Last year for the box was 1991, in 92 was the first version of the Crown Vic. In 93, they changed the grill on it to be open. The 1992 model year had a closed off one like the Taurus. Been in a lot of crown vics. Owned a 1996. Been in a few LTDs and the box Caprice. Last model I patrolled in was a 2010 up till about 2017. Nothing beat a Vic. Nothing could touch their durability. The Interceptor Utilities are nothing but trash and can’t handle bumps in the road without something breaking. Worst decision Ford ever made. The 1998 to 2011 body style went unchanged. Now every 2-4 years something major changes on cars. It sucks.
Good news was the SN-95 and New Edge were on a modified version of the Fox platform. Wasn't the same styling at all but the cars had a lot in common underneath. But even those are 20+ years old now...
I have owned several of each of these over the past 30+ years. A halfdozen NCSP SSP notches, 2 Tauri ( ABC/Tobacco Control division unmarked), and probably 10 Crowns from model-year '87 (351W Henrico County Va) through '05s, including unmarked high-rank admin versions with full cloth interior & split-bench front, down to the all-vinyl hose-it-out versions without cruise control (but typically the higher 3.55 rear instead of the 3.27 usually found in the more-optioned P71s). I'd kill to have any of the Mustangs back, and the Taurus was actually a very cool car for what it was. Dual exhaust tips and that slit in the grille were the only details visible from the outside, and the things actually handled reasonably well. I'm officially old now, I guess.
It’s crazy how even in the 90s they recognized that they were living in a distinct era called the 90s and called it the “good ol days.” That’s why I don’t really believe that we don’t know if we are living in the good old days until it passed. The 80s and 90s were truly the peak of humanity in my opinion.
@@mitch9521 Yeah compared to today's standards they are slow AF you're correct but when they came out they were a force to be reckoned with, not to mention all the sleepers out there. I don't think you have any idea what your talking about or you're like 10 years old.
These things ruled the roads for years. They may not be as big or as fast as the modern Chargers, but when these were on the hunt, there was nowhere to hide.
I didn’t live through the 90s but these vehicles were always cool to me. One of my favorite cars of all time is the Foxvody mustang. My state troopers used to use the SP Mustang while my home city used to use the old crown Victorias. Now it’s all Ford Explorers or Dodge Chargers. Still nice cars, but not the same.
I work with a ex state patrolmen in texas, he told me stories about th foxbody they used, he said they were unstable at high speed because of all the things on it. He said multiple troopers died from crashing
I wonder what those older guys would think of the way the SUV became the new police cars. The Dept. I volunteered with started using full sized Broncos for the "rural" patrol routes in the late eighties, early nineties. Now it seems they are replacing the Chargers and Crown Vics with Explorers and Tahoes. They do make sense though, being able to haul so much more gear on top of being more comfortable. From what I've seen anyway.
It’s crazy because it never really was performance. In the 70’s we have the trans ams slow years doing 0-60 in 8 seconds in 77 we had the little red express doing it in 7.6 seconds. in the 60’s we have cars doing it in under 5 seconds. In the 80s we had the cyclone, grand national, mustang all able to do it in under 8 seconds.
this is a great video. well-shot and well-explained. I do find the "techno" sounds and the focus on the microprocessor chips in the ABS to be kinda funny though. good ole nineties charm
I had a 2nd Gen Mercury Sable GS. That baby had the 3.8 mated to an AXOD transaxle. It was an amazing rally car and a fine handling machine on the road...until the engine/trans mounts broke and the AXOD internals grenaded.
That's not a SHO, it's just the PI 3.8 (Power Improved, not Police Interceptor as it's often called.) About 65 less horsepower than the SHO, but the engines didn't blow up due to faulty cam welds like the Yamaha SHO was prone to. The transmissions were still junk, so you rarely saw the PI Tauruses go past 100k miles.
@@RockandrollNegrooh, just saw this one, thanks for the info, heres another funfact, the 2nd gen taurus was only sold as a police interceptor from 1993 to 95’, it was also the only GL models that had a speedometer that went to 140, 96’ taurus and the taurus sho broke down to much it was brought back as an interceptor in 2010
Other drivers in front of me still think my Lincoln Mark 8 is a cop car. It's white and looks like one from this generation from the front. They actually slow down and carefully do the speed limit and look for seat belts as I approach behind. I'm not even doing this on purpose. I guess some are still living in a time capsule in their own mind.😂
“Now it’s the 90’s and these are the good ole days” Hit the nail on the head, everyone in law enforcement I know raves about how great police work was in the 90’s and early 00’s.
@@RockandrollNegrothen why does the speedometer on the interceptor taurus go to 140, and has the same headlights as the GL, i get that they need to go fast but the vulcan could never reach that speed
@@RockandrollNegro I grew up in the back of a '94 Taurus GL with the 3.8. Dad wanted an SHO but when the dealer came at him with the numbers that the Yamaha V6 was $6000 to replace (in 1994... with inflation that's over $12k today), he backtracked and got the GL, albeit with the floor shift and bucket seats option. I can imagine the average police department would rather fix head gaskets every couple of years than blow up an engine worth 1/4 the original MSRP of the car.
