I'm a big fan of inline-6 engines and they've become exceedingly rare in today's cars. Never been a MOPAR guy, but a straight-6 muscle car making 500+ hp just *might* turn me into one!

[@joed9491]

I have a 2020 Charger with their 6 cylinder. Puts out 292 horsepower which you can't consider it to be muscle car power but still, it goes 0 - 60 in 6.5 seconds which is faster than a lot of the old 440's from the 60's and 70's but the bonus us that it gets better gas mileage than the two 4 cylinder cars I also have. Those are rated at 32 mpg on the highway, both get around 27-28. My Charger is rated at 30 mpg and gets 31-33 and that's even climbing through the Blue Ridge Mountains. So I'll be keeping an eye out for the 2025 Chargers with the Twin-Turbo Inline-Six.

[@edwardfletcher7790]

A straight 6 with or without a turbo, is a FANTASTIC engine design. Whether it's a Jaguar, TVR, 2JZ, Barra, BMW or Dodge it's a truly great format 👍 The 8 spd gearbox makes a huge difference to the acceleration AND fuel economy. A 550hp factory turbo straight 6 is a BEAST 😮 It's such a shame that all the Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep products built in the Magna Steyr factory for worldwide export are all so incredibly unreliable 😕

Those Chargers/Challengers are no joke! I rented a Challenger a few years ago while one of my Grand Prix's was in the shop. I only kept it a few days and didn't really beat on it (much). A few years ago I was on the highway at 70+ and passing a line of slower cars in the right lane. Looked up in my mirror and all I could see was pushbar about 4' behind me! Got over and the GSP (Georgia State Patrol) in one took off like he was shot out of a cannon! Interestingly, one of my local PD had a few 1999 Grand Prix GTPs similar to mine. Supercharged 3.8L Buick V6. Theirs were 4-door and loaded down with equipment. They used them for highway pursuit. They had an "open house" and car show one day and I pulled in with mine. Cops came over and we talked. I asked them if they had clipped the speed limiter and they grinned. The factory speed limiter is set at 135 to keep from exceeding the stock tires limit (mine, and theirs, are upgraded). I've seen vids of them with the limiter "removed" go 155! They destroyed theirs and I still have mine!

Jay is 74 years old, has had two health set backs since the pandemic, and his wife is dealing with dementia related issues. He is as human as the rest of us,he is going to look older every year, he is going to have slow downs and less... enthusiastic moments when he is under stress. Jay still tours, in comedy clubs as well as on the corporate and paid lecture circuit - he is going to continue to show some less energetic times. But look at other entertainers like ; Steve Martin, Mel Brooks, Carroll Burnett, even the recently departed Bob Newhart (r. i. p.) - they are all still vital enough to do what they want to (most of the time, when given time and opportunity). Age is but a number... But it can't hurt to remind Jay Leno how much we appreciate his work and look forward to seeing what he wants to show us next!

This is a sad day 😢. When I was a LEO we drove the most horrible early 80's Ford LTD Crown Vics. They would overheat, they didn't handle well, the quality was...questionable and the interiors were very uncomfortable for officers wearing duty belts. It was embarrassing to drive those cars but the department only bought new models when they were forced to. Police today have no idea how good they have it for vehicles. These Chargers are so sweet compared to even recent past police cars, I'm truly sad to see these go. Today I can't even afford a car and I wouldn't accept one of those LTD Crown Vics if it were free lol. I keep saying it but it's so sad the Charger and Challenger are being killed. My dream car became the Challenger when I saw them first released and every year they seemed to get better and better. I can't dream big enough for a Hellcat or Demon but a wide body Scat Pack 392 in Plum Crazy Purple...oh yeah. Panther Pink would be my first choice but they don't even offer that anymore. 😢

[@hammerdown3876]

some of us do. 24+ years on. My first car was 1990 Vic 5.0. Grandmas LTD with red velvet bench seat. odometer frozen at 255k. radio wedged between the seat cushions. radar bungee corded to the dash. Big loud overhead lights that you had to sometimes get out and do the 'ol "rotator bang" with your hand to get them unstuck. No luxuries at all. I was given a flashlight, gun, badge and clipboard and told to go enforce the law. Had a few 93, 95 vics. 150k miles was a good car in the fleet. I had an 05, 08 vics. All vics overheated on traffic accidents. Had 2014 charger, a 2020 and now a 2022 Ford Explorer. Current car is a Cadillac compared to my first patrol cars. The last 10 years as a LEO has been vastly different than the first 14.... lol. Yeah.. the rookies have no idea how easy they have it on cars, however... being a LEO today isnt really that fun anymore and I feel for these guys. Im only 5 years away from hanging it up with a 30 pension.... when I first started, I may have had crap vehicles but we could actually be police. Today, we are glorified security guards. No pursuit policies, anything more than handcuffs is a use of force investigation, and every arrest requires 2+ hours at the hospital for a fit slip to take them to county jail if they so much as have a scrape or a cough. "Paper Law Enforcement." That basically all we do these days is push paper. There is no actual catching of criminals anymore.

Awesome! I bought a 1969 Illinois Plymouth Fury Police Interceptor, copper color, in 1971. I tore out the front bench seat, re-carpeted it, and installed bucket seats from a Challenger. Finally, I upgraded the radio and speakers. It had a 383, with a high rise manifold, Holly carb, dual exhaust, a high stall transmission, and limited slip differential. It was built like a tank, with lots of non-standard parts. Whenever I replaced parts I would always halve to take the part off the car to compare it at the parts store to make sure it was the same. When I replaced the U joints, the Plymouth’s bearings were tiny compared to the ones I took off. I ended up taking home U joints from a heavy duty pickup truck. My favorite car of the past 53 years.

[@andrewhigdon8346]

“But we do make sure we don’t have any high speed cut offs for any of the chases.” I hope he means just the last year. Because the 2006-2009 were limited to 131mph, which is pathetic. My car with the same engine and such pulls incredibly hard right up to 130 and then just stops pulling past 131. It’s a strange feeling. The power is certainly there, but it is computer limited. Later on they raised the limit to 151 for select agencies. I have used a tuner to raise the limit on my car, and then it sailed right past 131 but I let off at 140 because of other risks, like not the best tires, and other conditions, like traffic, road surface, etc. I will say that when I upgraded my suspension and included the huge 32mm front sway bar, high speed performance handling went through the roof. It was fine and dandy at 120mph before. Now, it feels like the whole thing was made to go 125 all day long. The number one attribute of these cars, as far as performance goes, is what the police departments call “closing speed”. Which is the time it takes to catch up with speeding drivers. Of note is that the Ford Explorer PPV with twin turbo eco boost has a better 0-60 time AND higher top end speed. But from 65-too speed, it’s a dog, and takes much longer to reach 130 than the Chargers do. I can understand why they would limit civilian cars, but why do that to PPVs?

[@Horizon301.]

Our police cars are better than the US, look at what traffic police drive compared to the Ford explorer or even these chargers.

@@joeblow5214 my point is that they aren’t covering the same kinds of areas.

It varies from place to place. The SoCal agency I was with never used Code 1. Code 2 was get there quickly. It was the deputy's discretion whether to use lights and siren but normally we only used them to clear congested intersections. Code 3 was a full-on lights and siren response.

[@SuperJ213]

This probably varies all around the county, but the only thing different that I'm accustomed to is Code 1 means drive normally to a non-emergency (as a general rule). I've heard that some agencies prohibit code 2 (logic being that if it's important enough for lights, then you should be using the siren, too). That being said, I believe it's common that cops can typically exceed the speed limit without lights or siren under certain circumstances. I believe this gets some people upset because they think the cop is simply speeding for no reason. For example, it's pretty common to run code 3 to a family fight but cut the siren (and sometimes the lights) as you get close to the location.
