KEEP THE BAY AREA BUGGS INTRO SONG!

Yeah I got a 2013 Ford Taurus Limited sweet car

I did not know there was a fwd version.. i have a 2014 interceptor, i also have the 3.7 awd. When i bought it i was under the impression it was the ecoboost and was pretty upset when i found out it wasnt but i did alot of research and im actually glad now. The EcoBoost has alot of problems. Thats fine for the police because they use all our money to repair them, but me, i got to do it myself so im happy to have the 3.7. Its still fast as hell, i call it my "race tank made by Mercedes" . Its fast as all hell, designed to do severe damage to any car in my way and not be bothered, and its stupid comfortable. Im a full time single dad, but im a racecar guy so this is getting both the perfect family car for my kid, its probably the safest one u can get out there and i still get my racecar daily driver. The only thing i had to sacrifice was its automatic. I can deal with it tho lol

It's called "transverse mounted". Most cars these days are as such, and most smaller SUV's. Also the spark plugs are easier to change (firewall side) on the 3.5 ecoboost engine. I just bought one last week and I love it!

technically the full name is a Ford Taurus Police Interceptor Sedan, if you run the VIN on any of these cars the make and model is listed as a Ford Taurus and the trim level is Police Interceptor, not the model. I know Ford was trying to market the new interceptors as the PI Sedan and PI Utility but they still officially kept Taurus and Explorer on the VINs as the models, just like the CVPI was officially a Crown Victoria with the Police Interceptor trim/package. I believe Ford was trying to differentiate the Taurus and Explorer PIs from the civilian versions since people buying the civilian versions new for 30 or 40 or 50k loaded with luxury options don't want their car to be confused with a stripped out cop car with rubber floors. Civilian CVs were never that popular since the tough police image of the car ruined the image of the civilian luxury car, and the mercury and lincoln versions did much better even though it's clearly the same car.

A week, maybe a week and a half ago Mass had these 2-3 days where it was so cold out. And my 13’ Taurus ended up overheating in single digit weather. Long story short, I found out he needs a new water pump. And just today I paid out $1,200 and got my car back. Most of the cost came from labor considering mine is the 3.5L v6 awd and in order to replace the water pump, you have to take the engine out essentially. Still wouldn’t trade my Taurus for anything. Awesome video as always, keep up the great work!

Great video bro and like I said on IG yea I think I'm gone go with the 3.7 to add to my Vic cuz the Ecoboost is too many problems don't have the patience for that car will come up missing real quick

The FPIS also had a 4th option from 2014 on, a 2.0 I4 EcoBoost

I don't like the new responder thing. At least the taurus and explorer still had a nice mean look not too modern.

I'm still waiting for some performance runs.. I hate waiting

If you have a Crown Vic, Coyote Swap it.

Dope as hell using polecats old intro

Which one of those engines is the one with the water pump buried deep into the engine block? Been trying to buy one but there aren't any mechanical yt videos on those particular interceptors.

1 Year With my FPIS only Issue is My outer tie-rod end. and my Power Steering Rack Grinding

There is guy in my state who pretty much selling police interceptors and I'm saving my money to get the Ford explorer I like how they look

I have a 2017 police intercepter, I wish someone could tell me how to remove the dark zone , interior lights

My 01 mercury sable has the belt on the side also

The engine is transverse mounted as in mostly all FWD based vehicles.

All of the taurus had the engine placed that way I have a 2002 and its the same way

How’s that car holding up? I’m planning on buying one eventually

Most cars with Front Wheel or All Wheel drive have a transverse engine.

There’s also a 2.0t option.

You mean transverse instead of sideways?

How much MPG do you get?

I love my 2011 SHO. She dyno's at 478 after turbos and bolt in upgrades. There is nothing better than leaving a mustang at a light without a chance. Be warned though, the maintenance is VERY expensive.

Lol dude has never seen a fwd car lol

So do these come this way from the factory from Ford? 😂

Transverse engine. “Newer” cars has transverse engines due to fwd. Look under where your battery is. Thats where the transmission is located. I’ve only owned 1 fwd transverse engine car for a few months and the others were longitudinal V8’s. I’m used to longitudinal V8’s 🙌

Sounds like someone wants a utility...

Hated Taurus until I got a sweet deal on A black 2013 police interceptor... Lol go figure

Did your interceptor come with a locking safe in your trunk?

I love my ecoboost

The AWD 3.5L V6 Ecoboost is turbocharged not NA

Huh and my police department dose not like it because they feel cramped no room they ether like the explorer or the crown vic bc my police department still has one

Not weird at all have u never opened the hood on ANY FWD CAR

My first car will be a fpiu or an fpis in four years

Live and learn i tell ya

Shame how you have that legend COUPE just rotting away. DISGUSTING!
