Interesting take on officer protection from today's big city threats.

That 75 mph rear collision protection might be useful with pesky tailgater's.

The 270 degree Police Perimeter Alert would be handy for the Somolian LE in Michigan.

Just about all of the Crown Vics are gone. Most of the cop cars I see now are SUVs.

“you won’t be able to buy one: at least, not anytime soon. “

If they could put most of the CVPI in the Marauder, nothing should stop a civilian offer.

Meet the new cruiser

"It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas."

The rear protection will protect officers when they get rammed while sitting next the highway. Cops get killed every year by knuckleheads ramming them.

The Fairfax County Police hate them. There is not enough room with all the electronics.

I’ll bet the maintenance costs are substantial.

Leno Garage review the options for CHP.

The new SUV is cool. I trust the CHP and Police to enforce the laws.

Don't look now, but your apostrophe is hanging out.

According to Ford, this combination bested the outgoing 3.7-liter powered model to 60 mph by 1.1 seconds and outperformed it to 100 mph by 4.7-seconds.

Hate when they do that - why not say what the 0-60 and 0-100 times are instead of saying it beat those times......could be that they went from a 10.1 second 0-60 to 9 seconds flat.....

Hopefully, you don’t spot one in your rearview mirror.

Hopefully they figured out how to stop sending the exhaust into the cabin.

I remember when Florida highway patrol bought a bunch of black boss 302 mustangs for the interstate. They were so cool. Faaaast too.
