most cop cars are v6's, the power of the v8 went out for gas mileage, and you really cant beat a radio.
we had the crown vics here for a long time till a few cops died from the power steering failures of the fords,(early 90's i think) when you had the car floored, and then braked hard to turn the power steering would fail, and had a bunch of crashes, back to the Chevy caprice lol
lets face it the charger aint all that, its still a 15 second car, its a cool retro looking car, but thats it, it failed big time vs the new mustang and camaro. the only reason the po po picked it up is because its got 4 doors.
