Oh jeez, it may actually be easier to tell you what the NYPD DOESN'T use. As far as precinct patrols go, most of the time you'll be seeing Impalas. Second to that it's a mix of Econoline vans (paddy wagons), Savanna vans, Fusions, Escapes, and Altimas. Then there's the occasional Explorer or Crown Vic. Crown Vics are becoming more and more rare as they age. 2013 Taurus PI's are starting to pop up here and there. Traffic uses Prius', Volt's, more Econoline and Savannah vans, Impalas of current and previous generation, Escapes, various handmedowns. Highway Patrol is mostly Chargers, slicktop or with Hi-Risers. If it ain't a Charger, it's a Crown Vic. They have a handful of Tahoes, but I've never seen one in person. They're also starting to get Eco-boosted 2013 PI's, and there are a few PI Utilities coming in as well. Unmarked... well. Honestly, name a car, they've probably got it. Most of the time it's Impalas or Crown Vics though. I see Fusions and previous generation Tauruses fairly often as well. Of course, there's always the undercover taxis. NYPD taxis needn't be Crown Vics anymore either, they've got undercover taxi Altimas as well, and I'm sure if there's a taxi version of it, there's an NYPD taxi version of it as well. I've heard people say they've seen everything from Grand Marquis to Suburbans to BMW M3's being used by the NYPD. And that's just four divisions alone. I could go on for hours about the things I've seen, but just going to policecarwebsite or Flickr should answer most of your questions.

I thought it was a joke when I read the title. Pleasantly surprised to say the least!!! Wow, I thought v7 was the end-all, be-all. The new features look great! Can't wait for the 'off-switch' functionality in particular. I agree with the above post. If it's not too much to ask, and while I'm incredibly grateful that more effort has been put into this, I would love to be able to choose what goes on in a particular lightstage. Could really be a game-changer.

Whelen Edge with a center mounted spotlight. While we're on the subject though, I would like to know what they use for their Chargers... '>

Hmmmm, as a New Yorker these are all very interesting to me. I had no idea we had "State Forest Rangers". Go figure

That truck must go through a ton of tires.

Probably a dumb question, but they are attached to the other extra's right?

Agreed, BUT - fret not. You can still get yourself a patrol car and do those random PoliceHelper-esque crime events that occur throughout the city. It's not exactly the same, but the idea is there. :)
