#1: Probably a 2001 or 2002. Note the change to the large pushbar in 2001-up.
#2: 1999 or 2000. Tough to tell without seeing the rear trim. My guess is 2000.
#3: 2001 or 2002 (grille)
#4. See #2. My guess would be 2000 again.

Year-to-year changes can be found here: http://www.crownvic.net/liquid/changes.html

OK here is what I have come up with
Car # 1 I put it as 2001 or 2002
Car # 2 I put it as a 2000 I can tell cuz the rear tailight is black. if it were chrome that would make it a 1999 and it is not an 01 cuz it does not have a go rhino pushie bar
Car # 3 I put as a 2001 or a 2002 because according to a reliable source there were no changes to the cars in 2001 to 2002 so that's taht.
and
Car # 4 I can be sure is a 2000 as well.
That's bout it unless someone else can narrow down even further.
Any help is Greatly appreciated.

ok, this is slightly off topic but here goes.
do any of you know why the state police switched from whalen to code 3 light bars -- not the LED but the blue ones. or do they reuse them when they get a new crusier?

Whelen to Federal in 1995, back to Whelen in 1998, Code3 in 2003/4, back to Whelen in 2005. All part of the bid process, I'd guess.

When they're done with a lightbar they dangle it over a cage full of whackers who kill each other for a chance to touch it.

The CMPSA "Thundercats" hold the cage fight record, with wins in '98, '99, and '02. It's all due to the superior training they receive at the Batcave.
