BAF EARNS 2007 FULL CERTIFICATION FOR CROWN VIC
Ford E-350 next to receive approval
DALLAS, Texas – February 8, 2007 – BAF Technologies,
the premier provider of natural gas and propane vehicle upfits,
today announced that it has received CARB and EPA certification,
including OBD II, for the 2007 Crown Victoria/Mercury Marquis/Lincoln
Town Car.
BAF first
achieved full certification last spring for the 2006 model year
systems based on its proprietary CalComp technology. Since then
BAF has completed more than 200 2006 vehicles and has secured
multiple orders for the 2007 models which should exceed the 2006
business.
“This
certification was made possible by the hard work our team put
into the 2006 vehicles,” says John Bacon, president. “Not only
did the team do a great job on the vehicle system itself, but
we had almost nine months of field usage which has allowed us
to improve the system further. The ’07 vehicles are even better.”
Orders for
the 2007 Crown Victoria vehicles have already been awarded to BAF
from northern and southern California as well as New York.
Meanwhile,
BAF’s engineering team has submitted the 2007 Ford E-350 to CARB
for approval. The system has met all SULEV requirements and is
based on the same proprietary CalComp technology proven out in
the Crown Victoria. CARB approval is expected in March and BAF
projects sales to exceed 150 E-350 Vans in 2007.
BAF continues
to work closely with Clean Energy, SCAQMD and NYSERDA to enable
all teams to achieve their alternative fuel goals.
Those
interested in purchasing these vehicles should contact their
Ford dealer.
