Chevrolet Corvette Stingray C7 Forum - View Single Post - Ford's Answer to the Caprice: Taurus Police Interceptor

The Ford Taurus would not be a good cop car for more then one reason. First the interior room would be horrible, second the maintence cost would be too much for a twin v-6 turbo, and third the cage/barrier inside would make it almost impossible for a prisoner to fit in the back seat. You can barely fit someone back there right now! Ford should have stayed with the CVPI because we use them and so do taxi cab companies.

Dodge is phasing out their Charger Police package.

The new Caprice coming out should dominate the market because the interior room is supposed to be more then the current CVPI and they are also going to make the shift lever on the column according to my Police Fleet magazines.

I for one am glad Chevy is getting back into the Police market with a practicle Police cruiser for patrol.
