Ford Announces New Police Interceptor

Our police department recently ordered a fleet of 150 Hemi Chargers to try out. Apart from the fact that many tall officers requested a replacement, blind spots remain a major complaint with the Charger. That, and quite a few required chassis repairs after mundane tasks, such as pushing a broken down vehicle off the road.

The Crown Vic may not be fast, but it sure is a lot tougher and cheaper to maintain. Performance isn't everything in police duty, that's what radios are for.

Well what would they use on the Vic.... These are rotors that were placed on them on the assebly line not aftermarket....

My P.D. [cop lives next door] says there is NO PROBLEM with the rotors on the C.V.P.I...In 98 thats when most of the fleet went to C.V.P.I.'s...That problem does exist on the Chargers though...I think they finally resolved that issue...The P.D. has about 1400 cars so they would know with about it...These cops really run their cars hard...I know a cop in Miami Beach and ALL their driving is stop and go and they also have no issue with rotors.

Can you please explain to me why whenever something is posted about Ford you ALWAYS have to come over to say something negative.

I do not see ANY of the Ford people going over to the Honda posts to make negative comments!!!...They prabably want to but they don't.

rszappa if you don't have anything productive to say.... Ford is quite good. I would know, we own two.

 

[rszappa1]

I am sure the service dept is very happy you own two.....

 

[Nick R]

You know what rszappa1, you can go shove it where the sun don't shine. You obviously don't know jack about cars. Why don't you do the rest of us a favour and stay the heck off this website, since you obviously are only here to bug the living crud out of everyone. Oh, and we do all repair work on our own cars, thank you very much.

As posted in the reliability thread.... It appears they rarely see him.

Similar as to how the ONLY time our Expedition has been to Ford was for an alignment.......

I'm just going to smile at your comment, as I laugh all the way to the bank.

Have a read through this thread by Acuratech at your leisure. I'll make it even easier:

On a Ford when the temp reaches the H mark ... The H means get a Honda....
