LAzyPD LAzyPD n00b Registered: 08/26/05 Posts: 43	The color Driftwood Beige has been deleted. The 4.6L engine will now be a FFV engine that can also run on E85. Laminated side glass is no longer an option. There will be tire pressure monitoring now on the dash. A keyless remote entry is now optional. That last one is something I have wanted them to do. OH YA and you can no longer get the 3:55 gears on a 50 state emissions required vehicle. _________________________ 2007 CVPI w/stock 3:55 gears and a power programmer. 140 mph attained.

I was so anxious to see if the modifier's guide and the owner's manual were listed to do PDF downloads but not yet. Unless someone gets them up i will keep an eye out for them. https://www.fleet.ford.com/showroom/2008fleetshowroom/2008-CrVicPoliceInt.asp _________________________ 2002 Ford Police Interceptor - former CT State Police - silver frost exterior - light graphite interior

Well, bad news if it's still the same look for the 10th year in a row. I'm impressed by the fire suppression system. They really wanted to get rid of the problem!!! _________________________ rules "Oversteer is when the passenger is scared" "Understeer is when the driver is scared" Well...

ExCarMagGuy ExCarMagGuy Schrödinger's Cat is Dead Over the Hill Registered: 04/07/01 Posts: 1223 Loc: Simi Valley, California	I like my car looking current. Besides, a cosmetic-only "freshening" for basically a fleet-only vehicle makes no sense. If you change the front-end, push bar and other equipment manufacturers will have to redesign their products for that model year. The loss of parts interchangeability within a fleet costs MONEY. BTW, the FSS is not new for 2008.

Reminds me of the look that was in ten model years ago....LOL! $\:D$ If it keeps my '04 looking new, I am all for it.

I do believe that is an automotive record. Almost, at least post-war. The Checker cab (introduced for 1956 model year as the A8) continued virtually identical visually until 1982. It received 4 headlights in 1959. The biggest exterior change was 1973 when they got aluminum bumpers.
