QUIKSVT Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Yes they have the Chargers w/ hemi! 18" black wheels, low profile lightbar. They look sick. If I ever get my pics off my phone I'll post em. They should be out on the streets shortley. BTW what kind of top end do these have? Josh ps: they only have 340 hp http://www.allpar.com/squads/police-cars/charger.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HotCarl Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 How do you know this for sure? have you seen one? Do you know someone who drives one? I think the patrol charger's are basically an RT, 340 hp, RWD, still heavy. but hell thats better than the caprice's and crown vic's they currently have.

dragknee66 Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 Interesting. They do need new highway patrol cruisers, their old ones are looking pretty shitty these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRed Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 The patrol chargers are actually SXT model Chargers with the 5.7L added to them. Glad to see local Mopars back in the police game. Many police departments are working to get some of these to replace the current Crown Vics. The bad thing is Dodge can't sell them for a cheap as Ford dows with the Crown Vics. But if demand goes up, the prices will be dropping and Dodge will make them Fleet vehicles.

truckin Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 I've seen the new Charger patrol cars at our Divisions shop on Greenlawn ave. They have the low profile lights black push bar on the front, all white black wheels etc. They look pretty badass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oo0martelle0oO Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 The one I saw about a month ago was all white with Red blue and gold stripe, large FREEWAY PATROL on the trunk and the light bar was in the corners of the front and rear window, not on the roof. Black wheels, black headlights, and front brush guard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mallard Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Most patrol Chargers sold are 3.5L V6's. Still cooler then a Crown Vic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lustalbert Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Had one do a flyby today here in chicagao. Had to be running at least 110, and sounded mean as hell. The light bars where mounted in the top of the windshield, with the lights off it is undetectable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteS40 Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 CPD will probly go to the charger.. the highway fleet will get the Hemi at around 24K a piece the intown patrol will get the 3.5L these costing around 22K but will use less gas.... also the Sargents have just been issued the Chevy Impala's i do belive they are the V8's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HotCarl Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Is there any truth to them getting a couple GTO's I doubt it, they discontinued the GTO and I dont think they would buy any cars used. on a side note, i did see a white impala last night by OSU hospital. Couldn't really tell if it was a v8 or not though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorne Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 They defianly got the power and top end that the other cars were lacking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 I have seen a few new Impalas at this shop near nationwide...and also the Chargers have a 150mph top end according to Wisc. or Minn., whoever tested them first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mushijobah Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Thank god those slow ass vic's are gone! I bet the 3.5 could even take vic. It has more power, that is for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteS40 Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 u are right the 3.5 is actully just as strong and faster then the V8 vic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckeyeGT Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 i would doubt the 3.5s have comparable torque to the vics. vics will stay the choice of law enforcement for years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
