Welcome to the Crown Vics ETC blog!

On April 6, 2000, I purchased a 1998 Ford Crown Victoria LX HPP with 23,490 miles. I decided to start a little website for it featuring a running log of my experiences with the car. Vic 1.0 was retired in 2015 due to rust and electrical issues. Vic 2.0 was a 2006 P71 in Blue Pearl that belonged to my boyfriend. It was a Ford demo and never saw actual police use. It was damaged in September of 2018 with well over 186,000 miles. It was replaced by Vic 3.0 in October 2018, a 2008 P71 in Silver Birch with 120,971 miles.

UPDATE: Fastback Vic Returns!!

After having a Crown Vic parked in the same section of the driveway since 2000, I usually know what things will look like after snow.

As I type, Massachusetts is in the middle of a "Noreestaa", or "nor'easter" to foreigners.  That means the return of FASTBACK VIC!

The wind blows snow in such a way there will be a totally bare spot on the upper-driver corner of the windshield, and a big snow wedge on the trunk, making the entire car look like some sort of sleek, frosting-covered fastback car.
