My buddy in high school had a Plymouth Grand Fury decommissioned police car. It was fast as hell. You could rev the engine the v8 would rock the car back and forth.

Those Furys were fantastic cars. My dad had one, and that thing would pick up and hustle faster than anything. It was bare bones, black with a white top. Finally rusted out and he got rid of it but it was a great car.
 
Pffft....this is how they ride in Valencia! :rolleyes:

If, hypothetically, they arrested you and had to take you in - would they just tie you down to the roof? :eek:

Here's how they like to roll in north Texas:

Ahh good point :).

(doesn't sound like my kind of convention though :D)

It seems pretty obvious that the photo is there to advertise the fact that dodge make a police car....and that it's not actually a photo of one of the cars that would go on patrol. Or at least that's how I see it.
OT: Then again I did just get in from a night out and am dressed like a pirate /OT

This. Especially given the fact that it's pretty obviously a 3D rendering rather than a photo (as are about 80% of car commercials on TV these days, btw).

You'll see those in the country in south Texas as well- mostly the SUV's, for some reason. (I might be wrong, but I don't think they perform better then trucks on mountainous curves.) But in the towns and cities it's either crown vics or chargers.
 
I didn't know Flower Mound used trucks- all I ever see there is Chargers, Crown Vics, and Tahoes.

Sweet police cars though. I'd love to own an 1980's Chrysler Fifth Ave. (same as the Gran Fury, but nicer). :cool:
 
I don't agree that an arrest is grounds for stealing property

In that case the options are to let the drug dealer keep the car that was bought with drug money, or give the car back to the garage....in which case the garage has made thousands of dollars for nothing.

Or, if you sell the car back to the garage (wouldn't be for full price obviously), what happens to the money? Does the drug dealer get it back? Or do the police "steal" it...(and go buy a new police car)?
 
England has some weird cop cars. The ones I saw were bright lime green with orange, yellow, and blue checkers and stripes.
 
Here in Denmark we got

VW Passat

There is alot of assumptions with those statements. How do you know it was bought with drug money? I want more proof than just assumptions
