I made this video to show some of the quirks that you will have to deal with if you are a civilian (non law enforcement) looking to purchase a Ford Police Interceptor Utility.
The one in the video is a 2016 base model, no options.
Yes we all get that I say umm a lot. No need to have every other comment complaining about it. My later videos I started editing them out.

No I'm not a cop.
Yes there is a reason I purchased this vehicle: because it was cheap, and it had room for ham radios.
No I am not trying to impersonate the police.
No I am not complaining about the quirks (they have all been remedied in the next video)
Yes I am very happy with the vehicle
No a retail Explorer would not have been better as it has no room for radios.
Yes it's cheaper than a regular explorer. I paid $24,500. Base explorers start at $32k
Yes I could talk slower and say more uhhhs. But do you really want me to do that?
Yes I understand why these quirks/features are there. You don't need to explain it. I'm merely pointing them out to people that may not know they were there if they bought the vehicle.
No it does not have ballistic panels. But it is an available option.
No I will not put a pushbar, or teardrop lights on it. I have no need for either.
If you have any questions, feel free to comment below.

turbo2ltr hey man. I need one of these but don't want to buy a used beat up patrol issued explorer. Where can I either buy a brand new one or one with very little mileage? Ford restricts these to fleet only purchases brand new from the dealer. I'm also open to the Chevy if needed. I'm a fellow ham so I need one. Any suggestions? Thanks buddy. 73s

It's not easy by any means. I was looking for a long time doing google searches for them. And when I found one, I had to be willing to fly there and drive back. The dealer that had mine had them listed on ebay as well as a few other car sites. Here's one with 10k on it. Looks familiar.. lol. www.carfax.com/Used-Ford-Explorer-Police-Interceptor_t5694#vdp=1FM5K8AR1GGC37590

brayden valerio I tend to agree with you. We have at least one or two people in our small town I live in that have old interceptor crown Vic's and have put antennas onto the roof. I'm sure that they don't have enough equipment to make use of 4 antennas. Some people just like to look like cops I guess. Whatever floats their boat. It's very easy to spot police impersonator vehicles, and a little brake check will test their authority, or lack thereof.

This explorer PI is actually a explorer sport with a 3.7L NA engine. It has heavy duty transmission, suspension, AC. The AWD system has a liquid cooling system. You $50K MDX SHAWD will overheat. This one won‘t. Try to find a new mid size SUV with 300+ HP and AWD for $25~26K before making ignorant comments.

Your speedometer might be "certified calibration" but that means nothing unless it has been inspected and certified by a third party company once or twice a year. Thats what it means by certified calibration. It allows police officers to ticket people for speeding by "pacing" their speed. The only way you would win the ticket is if they do not have it annually certified by a third party compamy

Has 140k miles. I take care of it, I drive my other car more cause I don't wanna beat it up n rack up too many miles. But it is nice to have. Neighbors think I am a cop lol. Was people breaking into cars around here, I got this fker n no ones car has been broken into since. I guess its a good thing. I mean the plates should tell anyone I am not a cop, but alot think I am lol. My Dad and my Mom both were State Cops when I was growing up, just something I didn't wanna pursue at all. Not me. But anyway, good to know things I didn't know about this ride, thanks a million!

All of the things you dont like are defeating the COOLNESS of having an interceptor. Before my 9C1 went out of style, nobody got in my way or passed me. They would come flying up beside me to pass then see the 9C1 stuff then back off. I had been cought in speed traps just to be waved through. I still have the car. It will be 21 years old soon and I have put very little money into it as far as maintenance goes. The LT1 engine still runs like a bat out of hell and I love those power shifts. I hope you learn to enjoy yours. Im sure you will in time. 73, W3CV

Gotta love the old Caprice! They're still selling them to a few agencies in the states, I've heard they've got them in Iliinois. They're built off of the Holden Caprice platform and imported with the 6.0 v8. I hear they're pretty ballsy, and the brakes are mind melting!

The reason for the rear hatch having a button... because they usually keep their heavy gear back there. Which might consist of an AR, Ammo, medical equipment, reports, etc. So to keep it more secure, it has to have an extra deliberate step to get that door opened so someone standing behind the vehicle while the Officer is in the car can't just open it up real quick on them and gain access. You did buy a Police vehicle that was designed for Police use, not civilian use.

Only reason I got rid of mine is I was getting pulled over about 2 times a week. I wish I could pick one of those up. I see older crown Vic's everywhere for cheap but never see any of those.

It is what it is, a police vehicle designed for POLICE work. If all these things annoy you, I don't understand why you bought it. You bought a heavy duty suspension (not available on the commercial model) heavy duty transmission, brakes, electrical system and a host of other things that frankly I'd love to have on one.The problem is when most of these departments get rid of these vehicles, they are pretty well used up.

It is in super great condition and yet I got it for a super low price. The civilian versions minus all the upgraded parts would go for about $15k. Well, enjoy your new ride.

The for those asking about the police interceptor badge. It means nothing. You can not get in trouble for it. It is just a model of a car. And some of the options that are in the video may not apply to all Interceptor Utilities. I have a 2016 and my rear seats are cloth, even though we ordered vinyl. It has keyless entry. And the back up camera is displayed in the radio. There is an option for it to display in the rear view mirror. Some have carpet, some don't. Also Gas mileage SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It only has a 13 gallon tank, and you get about 15-20 MPG. But mine is an EcoBoost, and I don't pay for the gas, but if you are in an area with gas stations few and far between, watch out.

So. basically, other than the more aggressive shift points, the only changes for the cop version are things that would be annoying or undesirable for civilian use. Guess it's not quite the old days anymore, where you could count on the cop version to have engine and chassis upgrades that would make it better than the best civilian version (obvious example being the Crown Victoria P71 with more power and a higher speed governor, but the old Caprice 9C1 had the Impala SS/detuned Corvette engine and apparently some additional chassis stiffening that the Impala SS didn't have).

From the up fitting side, the rear seats don’t have the option of flipping forward all the way. Just because when people like me are up fitting all the police equipment, the front partition takes up all the room the seat would need to flip forward. And the rear hatch is timed for weapons and gear, and is more of a redundancy as we usually install a timed gun lock for either an AR or 870.

While posting my other comments I felt that I needed to say this, (turbo) I will try to convey my opinion quickly,😂😂😂. All seriousness, I don't know if anyone is a Reserve, Auxiliary or Full time law enforcement personal. But I wanted to convey something that happened about 78 miles from my city of residence. For anyone who has or is thinking about purchasing a unmarked Police package vehicle. Please think about this too before you do, if you are reserve, Auxiliary and full time Police/ law enforcement then you have more than likely been informed. But just the appearance of a police unit comes with extreme dangers. Police now are being shot and killed just seating inside a parked marked unit, or people are stalking and following police to their homes, taken pop shots from a distance and getting away. So please don't just think that it's cool to have a police package unit, but it's a dangerous profession that has life and death decisions and actions. Thank Turbo for the platform for discussion, I wish everyone a safe and enjoyable life. 👍🏽👍🏽

You can easily program a replacement key fob to open the car doors and lock them. You could even get a viper alarm that has auto start and tracks your vehicle.

My second video in the series shows just that. No need for viper alarm with autostart, these cars have it built in, just needs to be activated.

Fun car to drive on #EVOC course. Yes, it smokes #CrownVicroriaPoliceInterceptoptors because of the AWD . It handles much better on turns , gearbox seems to have 2 modes, regular driving & “ pursuit “ mode where it downshifting really quickly.

Did your Ford PIU come with fog lights. Do you know if it is prewired for foglights if they can be installed afterwards if you buy the fog lights off eBay or something like that.

It did not have fogs and I'm unsure if they were prewired. I don't recall seeing anything when I pulled the bumper, but I wasn't looking for them either.

Actually a very good video I personally enjoy when videos's speeches etc talk like normal people do not rehearsed sounding. I think there's more of a culture around owning former P model vehicles. However any new owner should use common sense and know there will be differences and a reason for the price difference. Some of the things like the shifting obviously it won't kick down to another OD gear lol when commanded to accelerate. However on these and my CV I actually do less passing gear kick down. Where as on a civillian if i wanted to move a bit quicker you would end up dropping into passing gear. So you're accelerating more than you needed or wanted. Where as with the interceptor tune it will kick down under a lighter throttle kick to 1:1 aka 3rd or -4th depending on if a 4 speed or 5/6. Though still down to passing gear if you go wide open.

The lever used to fold down the back seat also lifts the rear up as displayed on the plastic diagram. Once you fold the seat down, lift the lever one more time, all the way up and the back will raise up

The reason behind the timed hatch is because that’s where the officers keep their ARs when needed the most, so some random person doesn’t open your hatch because you forgot to lock your vehicle and takes it

So not having to repeat the hatch remains locked 29 times is why he put it in the FAQs But those options can be changed with FORScan too.
