Very cool indeed, thanks for posting.
Very interesting and informative. Thanks.
Can't wait until they are sold to the civilian market when a vehicle is retired.
Cool but why does Ford have soooo many different engine options ? Even in the new mustang. Can't be very cost effective whether from a engineering, tooling, supply or even a service / upkeep point of view
Those brakes look like cobra units ;)
That was an interesting website, really enjoyed this section: http://www.ford.com/fordpoliceinterc...dels/#/legacy/
All Explorer Sports with the 3.5 Ecoboost come with those HD brakes and they perform very well.
Wondering of the Springs are different in the Police Explorers?
Ford are very clever to offer both the Explorer and the Taurus, as underneath, they are the same vehicle. They must make some good coin on their Police Program.
