Cars that get you all hot and bothered

[Goodspeed]

Driving home tonight, I'm thinking to myself... why in the world do U.S. police departments standardize on large, boats of cars? The Crown Vics aren't way fast, they don't corner overly well, they seem to be kinda like a Mustang in that they do nothing really well.

They're cheap in fleet sales, dependable, durable, large trunk and interior space with loads of room for computer/printer, weapons, vests etc. Also very comfortable for the cops that pull 8hr shifts in them or longer.

MT did a pretty good article last year or so where they went over American cop cars (Crown Vic, Impala, Charger), their features and why they're chosen. Comfort was mentioned a lot and seemed to be one of their highest priorities.
