Soucy

1.) The amount of PIT's happening now(Atleast in my area of MA) has gone down, very rarely are PIT depolyed due to issues of officer safety. No car can do a PIT and not have the chance of injuring the officer and/or others on the roadways. Most go till the suspect hits something, or is able to get blocked in somehow. With todays computers and cameras, get the plate number and if they go over a certain MPH(In MA I think its 100 in a car and 90 on Bike) they let them go and cancel the pursuit. Just a question, what right mind officer would ever PIT a school bus with a CVPI, thats why they make spikes... 2.) Clearly you have not driven a Ford with a ecoboost motor, There is no such delay, you press on the pedal and it gives the power right to you. The delay doe not exist, and compared to a V8 the 0-60 is the same. The fuel economy has been better and departments all over have reported to save money by changing to the smaller engines. We dont live in the gas guzzle world anymore. 3.) Exactly, so why make two models. You have a car out of production completely. And a model in production in which can only be improved on. The old CVPI was a boat. 4.) Ugliness is a personal choice. They dont look bad, they can handle the damage and made look modern. The point of this thread wasn't to voice which on is better then the other. The CVPI had a long stretch of success that no one can lie about. The car has been used all over the world and been through the ages. For a vehicle it lasted and did its job but like all models, they must retire. A new design team comes in and releases a model that they can build off what the Taurus, They took active officers, asked them what they wanted and provided that in a car in which departments can afford, saves money and is easy to maintain. The point is, Ford released 2 models for first responders, both have been on the market for over and year and had like all vehicles mixed reviews but generally most have been good. The officer are after all the ones that matter here, this is their office. These 2 models have forever changed the way a police car is made and it has been seen in the Chevy and Dodge models. This is the future and no amount of signature will change that, sorry folks!

Never will happen, Ford made 2 much better models with the Interceptor's and Utility then it did with the CVPI. After all, the CVPI was a civilian car modified to become a police car, the newer models are designed from the beginning to be a police car, there made for officer comfort and control. Many departments in my area are using the Utility as every day patrols because they find the SUV is much better in the winter months. Saves money on the chains and the manpower to put them on. Officers like them more and that's what the final choice comes down to. Every officer I talk to like the newer models better then the old boat of CVPI.

Cause you know, the chances are the camera was installed to track everyones movements not by the DOT to watch the traffic flow through what looks like a major intersection....

Thats pretty cool to see how it works.

Just going to say, that would be a felony stop.... never know what that guy has on him!

Operation Tin is a go, I say again, OPERATION TIN IS A GO! Cant get me now under all my tin!

I seriously just LOLed at that! You know by now one of the keyword searches have located this thread and there keeping a close eye on it. Cause you know, video gamers are some dangerous people. Why dont i just go to the FBI office and turn myself in for being a gamer. And just so your clear tz71, if you have nothing to hide, why be so worried about them watching? Seriously, its not a "Police State" I don't like Obama, but I fully support law enforcement in this country, I don't respect the man in the office but I respect the office itself that he holds. I don't agree or like many of his choices but, I really cant change it. There's many different views and any person can freely have there own. Its what makes the US great. If you cant understand that I suggest you shut it. This country was founded on us all having our own beliefs, he cant take our weapons and firearms away(Its the 2nd Amendment after all) So accept this country for what it is, support the office just not when your man is in there, respect the country and all that have died throughout the world protecting our views and beliefs, cause there is a lot of them and we all have that right(1st Amendment), And arguing in a thread like this isnt going to change anyones beliefs... nuff said

I seriously hope this a joke otherwise, I cant believe your stupid enough to ask it. Like everyone else has said, Who really cares? Also: A: What do they have to gain by watching who downloads a VIDEO GAME MOD ABOUT POLICING!. Its not like its about terrorism... B: They do it already, we all understand its illegal, complain to your reps,(Kinda what there paid to do you know) C: Vote better next time... D: And by putting in your post " I want a answer." ) Just wondering if you got a visitor or two recently wearing trenchcoats and having a badge and sidearm on there hips. if they did ask you about LCPDFR, I really hope you got it on camera cause well... thats damn funny!

Yep, lesson learned! New version is 25% done and will replace this one.

I was setup in my spot and was watching the traffic, the 2 taxis came down and once they passed me, I saw the second one was clearly too close to the first, otherwise known as tailgating. Watch and learn the rest.

I found that thread on here before but like Ceril said, its the older model. And Officer Vic, I got some trains when I tried that that site, clearly I dont think its corrent either,. Thanks for the help everyone, looks like ill be recreating it!

I have been searching for over an hour and i have not been able to find the font used on the new Boston Police Caprice and Explorers. Even the newer Crown Vics sport it. Anyone have an idea what it is?

Being from just outside Boston the events starting Monday afternoon shattered our state, We were attacked on Monday by 2 people. Then from that point on the the hard work of the Boston Police, State Police, FBI, ATF and Homeland Security we were no longer under attack. The entire state came together joining hand and hand with law enforcement to assist the search. Its common for outsiders to believe we were under attack in the Greater Boston area. They choose the wrong city to miess with, they do call us Massholes for a reason. Were Boston Strong for a reason!

The Lowell MA Police have been using a new Caprice for the past year. It is currently part of the Traffic Enforcement Division.
