General BS forum I guess this will be for anything that would seem to be off topic in any other forum here. Just general shootin' the breeze kind of topics. |

Yeah you did! You would think with my interest in snakes I would have gravitated towards a Viper, wouldn't you? One of my favorite handguns is the Colt Python.
I really like the looks of the Viper, but there are two problems with it, in my opinion:
(1) It's a Dodge
and
(2) It's a Dodge.

Some agencys are going to a Charger so they are more easily hidden in traffic. They are blue, or green, or black,,, and you don't see them till it's too late. Other cars used are SUV's and trucks.....

Saw a pic on the internet the other night of a Dodge Charge police package. Not bad, but it's still a dodge.
My first police car was a 77-78(?) Dodge with the 440 mag engine. That thing would haul but wouldn't stop or turn for sheite!!
Looks like MOPAR is trying to get back in the ball game. Hey, we could be stuck with the self combusting rear seat Intrepid

I've heard that Tampa Police have a guy that drives around in a regular pickup truck and paces you. Then you have LEO's that sit on a bus bench with laser wrapped in a newspaper. I've seen the construction workers too.
Is there any rule to the license plate having to be a yellow city or county plate? Or can some of them have just the basic state plate? Always wondered.

Don't forget about the possible Dodge Magnum police car.

Still hate the hoods opening the right way on the new generation Vipers.
So I will not be trading mine in for this.
But since Mercedes and Chrysler merged you saw this coming,
