The Illinois State Police swapped a good majority of their Impala's and Crown Vic's for these... I was reading that right out of the package, these new Cop Chargers have a top speed of 174mph... able to catch faster cars... stupid Fords!
Not to redirect the conversation much but "What in the HELL would any cop need to be going 174 mph for???? Nothing that's what. And if I recall correctly from some conversations I have had with some of my local police buddies, they "Techniclly speaking" are not supposed to speed, PERIOD. If they can proclaim an excuse to cover their illegal acts, than so can we, thus they would not tend to do so. There job is to "Protect and Serve" not risk lives and break the very laws they are mandated to uphold, commiting to ignorant high speed chases that get people killed, thats why they have Radio's, spike strips, helicopters, etc. I highly doubt that those go 174 mph outta the box, and if they do the insurance companies are gonna have a freakin hay day raising everybodies insurance rates to cover for all the innocent property that will be damaged and people who are going to get killed by a buncha sugar donut and caffine hyped puds that think they can do what they want because they have a gun and a badge. (No offense to any of you who may be sugar donut caffine hyped puds :headbang: )
