Test drove a few mounties, need to replace my 246K 92. I drove one that was certified and then I went to another dealer test drove one with 15K less miles that was not certified. I asked them if it could be certified and they said since the already put it on the lot they can't do it. It doesn't make any sense to me as to why the can't certify it. The salesman said if I was working undercover for ford and asked them to certify it they could get in trouble. Also noticed the non-certified mounty had a rear door that did not line up with the rear fender. The guy did a carfax and it showed no accidents.
Both were V8's, I checked the info center and the one in south jersey said 14.7 MPG and the one in Long Island said 13.1 MPG. How accurate is that gauge and is this variation due to driving style or do some vehicles get better mileage for whatever reason than another identical vehicle .
