[@L30GH05TDUD3]

Their design is just godly. Whoever people that designed those SUVs definitely knew what they were doing and also need a raise. It’s like they were purposely made aggressive for police and also junkies alike. They’re also pretty powerful. At least to my knowledge the Explorer has an 3L Ecoboost engine that has about 400 HP as one of the engine options. Which in itself pretty decently powerful already. And the Tahoe has a 5.3L V8 that has 355 HP, which is also pretty nice considering it’s a more bigger SUV than the Explorer. Nonetheless both great vehicles performance and design wise.

[@campbell0162]

@@L30GH05TDUD3 I'm personally not a fan of the new 2021 tahoes. The 2015-2020 tahoes are very sharp, but the newer designs look a bit goofy and the body lines don't flow as well as the older generations. And its too bad that their msrps will have to cost you arm and a leg to afford.

[@TheBulap]

I prefer the Explorers over the Tahoes honestly. The Tahoe is great, but the Explorer is faster and handles much better. None of ours are the newest models mind, so maybe the new ones are different.

[@lescobrandon3047]

During my first year of police work in on Lawn Guyland Noo Yawk 1967, our patrol cars were cheap, and the type popular with salesmen. The roof had a revolving red light which was the size of a medium coffee can. It flashed once per two seconds. One radio I had usually didn’t work if car was near tall buildings. When responding to emergency assignments, one hand steered, one foot pressed the siren button on the floor, other foot operated accelerator and brakes. Lots of fun in heavy traffic. Car was dark blue painted. When weather was snow, siren speaker clogged, causing a sound similar to a dying cat. Then came the Ford Crown Victorias.

[@SuperAndybk]

Wow I was on patrol in early 80s till 90 and we had the Fury, and the V6 Impalas had started to phase in. They were bare bones, lucky to have AC. I worked in Brooklyn NY east New York section. I had been wondering what the cars had now. I was one of the first to get a password to use the SP10 car. It had a big metal mount that held a 5” screen box type monitor. It was very slow, similar to AOL service. It really cramped the front and with accidents many got severe lacerations. Not many wore seat belts back then. Thank you for great video. Peace

Great video on Explorer. Most police officers I spoke with, 9 out of 10, still prefer and miss the Crown Vic although many police depts still have them in service.

The hybrids certainly don't have the power of a regular gas engine, but when you're parked 95% of the time it is definitely a big fuel saver, not to mention the reduction of engine idling hours. Only real issue I've found is that I'll slow down to approach an intersection, make sure it's clear, and stomp on the gas only to slowly roll for like 2-3 seconds waiting for the car to respond.

These guys have lots of extras in their Explorer. My PD (I'm the mechanic) bought a new utility intercept in late 2019 (ym 2020). I think it was less than $40k for the basic version from Ford. We had a Kenwood radio, Jotto Desk, Code 3 light and siren package installed from a local up-fitter for $9,200.

And some guy in a compact truck nearly ended up underneath the trailer. On the return trip, there were 4 police cars at the intersection hoping to catch the “ trucker “ that ran the red light so blatantly.

I think ALL the Patrol Police vehicles should come with Roll Cages to protect our officers in high speed chases or while they write tickets on the side of the road because TOO many people run into the back of those cruisers while they are on the side of the road. I'm sure a full roll cage would protect them a lot more than what is offered now. JM2C

[@ryanwalker7904]

the cages installed in police vehicles have them built in at the B pillar.

[@fever4174]

Yes but it also stiffens the chassis to the point there are no longer crumple zones. On a racetrack, the safety benefit is huge but in a MVC it would make it more dangerous as the impact is transferred to the officer instead of the car. Modern cars are tested for rollover rigidity as well

[@anthonymolina7416]

They would have to wear a FIA approved helmet. Cause a bare head on a roll cage is no good

[@rpruneau68]

High speed pursuits are banned in many jurisdiction when it affects public safety and a roll cage is not necessarily effective for a rear, front or side impact.

[@lawrencelampke6007]

The Taurus interceptor and police utility ( explorers) both have 75 mph rear end collision ratings, which is huge since police vehicles have a high rate of rear end collisions since they are often parked on the side of highways for various reasons
