Long Life Filtration System won the award, while the corporation's
TACNET, an integrated tactical network that centralizes the command
and control of multiple electronic systems for emergency response
teams, received honorable mention. Visteon's Long Life Filtration
System is an innovative, patented system and the only Tier I
zero-maintenance long-life filter. This air induction system
contains a reticulated foam filter that traps over 300 grams of
dust, salt, moisture and other corrosives. It delivers a 150,000-
to 200,000-mile filter life, virtually eliminating the need for
replacement filters. This unique system solution reduces
manufacturer warranty costs associated with air filter service and
can save consumers as much as $150 or more over the life of the
vehicle. In addition, because this system doesn't require regular
maintenance attention, there is a great dealof flexibility in
packaging the system within the vehicle. The entire air induction
system could even be placed in another section of the vehicle,
freeing up valuable space near the engine. "We are truly honored to
