THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
Seen many people place threads for people, pets and whatnot that they are supporting, I have never started one of these before but felt compelled to help a local agency and a family member out by showing the result of their hard work and the citizens tax money.

They have an aging fleet of Crown Vics and Early model Chargers but decided to get a newer vehicle with updated equipment.

This cruiser just looks right, family member is LEO and had input in the vehicles design and related systems, it turned out better than expected and the return to the black and white colors was done quite nicely.

Very nicely done late model Chargers!

This is the Peoples Choice division of vehicles so if you are inclined....

Agreed. Those are some slick cars. I was told our department, while in need of a ton of new cars, would not be getting those as they are too "intimidating" looking.

They said that like it would be a bad thing. My 05 Impala with 120,XXX is anything but intimidating. I like it though, when it's running that car gets beat like a rented mule and likes it.

Maybe your agency will go with the new Chevy Caprice with the 6.0 litre LS engine, its a little less intimidating than the Charger but is faster, quicker, brakes better and is larger inside.

Basically its a Camaro driveline in a police pursuit package.

A neighboring agency said the same thing. I'm still dumbfounded how a car is too intimidating. If anything that's a good thing and will result in less running.

That is pretty sharp!

Nice job.
Sorry, I'm all out of empathy... but I have plenty of apathy left.

Damn, can't a brother get a "Run, Roger?" Gotta be all self-runnin'
