That statement probably depends on the region.
I have a niece that is a state trooper and her husband is a state trooper. Their department uses Crown Vics, some Chargers and Dodge diesel pickups. Thanks to a flat, wide-open area where they patrol, they do criminal high speed chases several times a month. My niece loves the high speed of the Chargers, but prefers the Crown Vics. Her hubby prefers the Dodge Diesel pickups because he's a big guy and the majority of his chases go off road following drug runners.
Sure, they do tax collection, but there's a lot more to it than that.
Their opinion is that the Crown Vic will outlast the Chargers, but that remains to be seen.
FWIW, the Dodge diesel tops out at about 110.
