Police Interceptor Utility Photo Thread

[TwoEcho27]

Picked up a 2016 FPIU. It has 205k and runs like a top. Was formerly a commercial vehicle inspection arizona state trooper vehicle. I live in a rural part of north eastern AZ so I use it for my drives into town, or down to phoenix. Im a ham radio operator so it allowed me to add all the radio equipment I needed and the ability to power anything Id want pretty much.

Nice! Welcome to the forum.

Not sure if this link will work. But these people talked about it. But I have my fingers crossed for you!!

Sadly, no. Everything is enabled in Forscan and hood switch is installed. I'll be looking at an OEM solution as I'm not big on aftermarket stuff plugging into my OBDII reader.

Here's a before and after pic of the initial changes I've made so far.
• 2021 PIU, 3.3L V6
• Window tinting
• Taillight tiniting
• Wheels changed from the traditional black steel wheels with chrome center cap to the black ST wheels using black lugs instead of chrome lugs.

Welcome to the Forum.
Are they the same vehicle? The "after" one looks bluish and now seems to have the driver side spotlight.

Hi Peter,

Thank you for the welcome. Yes it's the same vehicle. The before picture was at the dealership before the spotlight got installed. The after picture is with my phone which might have contributed to the image discoloration.

I am in Maine too, I'm in Sanford. Just picked this up a few days ago, was a Falmouth PD vehicle. I really like it so far, only problem is some surging/bucking at light throttle around 30mph and occasional shuddering in sync with the surging. Gonna do some basic 100k tune up stuff and hope for the best. I started a thread on it.

Old thread but I'm taking a shot anyways. I just got a 2016 police utility out of Lebanon NH and it too has the surging/bucking at light throttle. Did you happen to figure it out??

If anyone has some insight as to why she sputters at low speeds I'd love the help. I've checked the spark plugs and fuel injectors. They seem alright. Full disclosure I'm no mechanic.

Also not a mechanic.
Air flow? Clogged air filter? Clogged fuel filter? Old/stale fuel?

Also, welcome to the forum.
