As an officer, I think the most important issue is which will take the daily grind of the job at a cheaper overall cost for the department/budget over the long haul. Everybody says the turbo V6 from the SHO would be more expensive to maintain, but is there any data to back that up?

I think it is mostly an assumption, Generaly speaking, more things can go wrong with a F.I. engine vs N.A. Also IMHO supercharges are more reliable than Turbos and last longer. Cop cars are driven hard, (I am not saying the taurus wont last long , I dont want to piss off SYR74
). A TTV6 AWD car is more complicated than a N.A. RWD car, Generaly speaking more complexed can = more expensive maintanice cost.
