Yeh the Moonachie and Hasbrouck Heights police departments in Bergen County have been getting them
The Heights Chargers are white.
Moonachie have black ones that look really good for a Police car..

Yeah the thing that actually stands out with the Moonachie Chargers is they are mostly black with all flat black exterior hardware including the front grill ect..

Expect everyone to have them before too long, Ford dropped the Crown Vic. Time to buy some Dodge stocks :lol:

10-27-2007, 08:36 PM
they're still selling crown vics for another year I think, then that's it. They started to use a lot of Impala's I noticed (before the got bigger again).

07 is the last year for the civilian Crown Vic and 08 is the last year for the Interceptor.

the rest of this year the civilian Crown Vic will be limited production and then in 08 the police Interceptor can only be bought for fleets

depends on which V6, i no the police package has the 3.5 tho. we had a rental with the 2.7L and holy balls was that ever the slowest car EVER

V-6??? :rofl:, what the crap???!!!! why the hell would they get V-6's for a cop car? i was sure they would have the SRT-8 motor or ATLEAST the 5.7L Hemi so they could :burnout: and catch ppl. lol. u get one of those on a highway in a chase and someone with a "soop'd up Civic" could "smoke him yo" Cop cars need to be able to :drive: !!!! lol

The last Yankee game I went to I saw a few NYPD Chargers. With that pushbar in the front it looks very aggressive. Bo and Luke would have had their work cut for them with one of the Hemi ones chasing the General!

None in Jersey (where Ive been anyway) but there all over the place in Delaware ...On the way home from my mothers summer home I saw them both in municipalities and State police

10-29-2007, 11:28 AM
i was told that new jersey police departments dont buy the V8's due to our no chase law. there would be no reason.

im pretty sure i saw a south plainfeild cop charger...

maroman88

v6 vs v8 is a departmental decision

the 3.5L V6's have ATLEAST the same HP as the crown vics 4.6 V8 lol

Tru2Chevy
10-29-2007, 06:30 PM
No reason for city cops to have Hemi's....there isn't much room in downtown Trenton to make use of the extra power.


the 3.5L V6's have ATLEAST the same HP as the crown vics 4.6 V8 lol

both are rated at 250 hp, but I'm sure the 4.6 has more torque.

Specs on both:

just saw a state cop today w/ a new tahoe pulling some one over... like seeing my tax money being wasted on these ********, seriously couldn't that money be spent on somthing better or more usefull, or atleast returned?

Well i know that by malvern pa there is a srt cop car. Believe it is a magnum (or atleast what i am told by the Chrysler school that i go to). The cop cars use 3.5 usually. They are the same motors as the one that normal customers can buy the only difference is the software. The cops dont have any restrictions/governors on the motors.

One time I was hanging out in Wayne and I talked to the cop that was driving it, they were hanging out at a Starbucks up there, he showed me the inside, the engine, then I asked if I could drive it, he said sure go ahead, I opened the door to get in, then he said take it right to the police station if I put it in gear, funny joke. Today on the way to school, I saw a cop from the Passaic County Sheriff's Dept. driving a black and white Mustang as his patrol car. Now if they only make the new Camaros or Challengers into cop cars, then we'll have some competition, ha ha. Later, Jeff.
