Local depts have cut way back on patroling and gone to reacting to complaints only. Budgets are getting tighter. We just got a new E85 flex fuel Tahoe, If we stay with the Tahoe platform after this one gets turned in they will be Hybrids.

The whole police force out in the next big town by me(i live in a rural area, so big town is a relative term), Stroudsburg, has all new 2008 Dodge Chargers and Dodge Durango's with police package, i think the entire force got em. They look SWEEEEEEET. hopefully by the time i become an LEO all the crown vics will be gone and the chargers will be in.

Wow, that ride is gay. Does it come with "Officer Dangle" bike accessories? It seems a lot of agencies buy in bulk and don't think about quality or common sense. Right before I left the Patrol for Investigations. they purcahsed a lot of Dodge Trucks and put an elaborate camper on the back to hold the people we would pick up. We lovingly called them the, "Dog Catchers" because that is what they looked like. In addition all the Dodge's had really bad transmissions. You would have to be in the gear below it to be in the proper gear. They also tended to slip out of gear. A guy I knew parked at a ranch gate, put in park, ran around the back of the vehicle to unlock the gate, and was promptly ran over by his vehicle as it slipped from Park to Reverse. It seems the equipment guy is always some bean counter who has never done a day of LEO work in their lives.

Rides
We have mostly Tahoe's but...when Chevy was making the change over a year or two ago we bought a whole gaggle of Vic's. They are ok but Ford could do there part and redesign the car. I think 10 years and the same 250 hp is long enough....
