I've always wondered why the sheriffs have better cars than the police. It is sexy, and I don't know why the wheels look like that, they don't usually.

Sheriff's tend to have more funding, because they are county wide, versus just a city. Anf, my agency gets a bunch of grants through DHS etc, because we are on a bunch of regional task forces, etc. We have a sexy MCC, bomb truck, and a brand new Lenco Bearcat

Ah, I see. Still doesn't make much sense, though, considering that Houston IS pretty much Harris County. Not many people live outside the city limits.

I don't know anything about the Harris County Sheriff's funding, but I do know we have one sexy-ass jail:

Here's the Kentucky State Police Car:

But the cops in my area are slowly moving towards the Charger cop cars, which I think are much better than the old Crown Vics. At least they are intimidating.

Chargers had alot of issues tbh. Fleet vehicles need to be able to last a long time, and be of low-cost to the agency. Chargers burn through brake discs alot, and commonly drop their transmissions around 80k miles... Whereas crown vics are good for well over 100k miles.

But that one is 10-14 years old. The rims are 98-01 plus the light bar is ancient. So its pretty old. But your town only has like 75k people so it probably doesn't need new vehicles every year.

Yea, 75k plus about 1 mil every summer and spring in tourism.

Also, what I was saying was those are our old cars, the expeditions are our newer ones.

All of these cars are apart of the napa county PD. napa is HUGE
All of the cars except the CHP cars.
