our police chief has started a program to paint all the Tucson PD cruisers black and white like LAPD. it is supposed to make them "more professional"
this is the same chief who had the SWAT teams post sample AUGs thrown into the shredder instead of selling them or stripping them for parts and getting some money out of them when they converted to shorty M16s |

Are they professional enough to carry a GLOCK .40? |

I wish they'd paint cop cars florescent orange so I could see them better while speeding. ~Dg84 |

Is that for real? |

All we got around here --aside from a county sheriff or a constable maybe, last state trooper I talked to told me they almost never come up here unless someone is already dead or worse. and aside from the occasional burglary almost nothing happens. Funny that --almost all my neighbors are armed to one degree or another and no standing police dept and almost no crime. Actually If and when a state trooper car does run through its somewhat of an event, so infrequent is its occurence. Sorry to steal your pic Bob ! But I couldnt find a better one right now. |

Yep, I started a thread about that way, WAY back... |

So, what's the story behind it? |

I'm not quite sure to be quite honest, but I guess so. The police are only allowed to buy Volvo V70, S60 and XC70, Toyota Avensis, Rav-4, Landcruiser and Hiace, Subaru Legacy, Impreza, Forester and Outback, Ford Mondeo, Mercedes Vito 115 cdi og Sprinter and Nissan Primera and X-trail.
The latter. There is local police departments but everything is pretty much controlled by the national police hq. |

A major suburb of Birmingham, (Hoover, AL) just went to all Tahoes, they were involved in the lawsuit against Ford, over the crown vic. They autioned all f them off a month or so ago, They have been in a few chases, that have made the news, and the Tahoes seem to be doing okay. I'll try to get a pic.

I live in Ford County IL and the sheriff's deputies here drive Dodge Intrepids. I never thought a thing of it until somebody sent in a picture to Car Craft and they made fun of it.

IIRC, some of them (KCSD) read an article in some rag and something to do with pics, being funny or whatever (it was a while ago, I forgot about it until Aaron posted that pic and reminded me), with pics sent in to that rag--so KCSD made up that sticker and sent it in--that pic got widely distributed on base email, and I started a thread on it--it was supposed to be a joke, but it really ruffled some folks' feathers out there in KA. |
