A police ride along doesn't consist of having your hands behind your back in cuffs bud..

To go off on a tangent and save another post, is it right for a 2004 CTS to take me pretty easily?

Yeah those crown vics arent anything special. And there are so many changes from year to year its hard to tell. Main thing with them is like said above they are geared for top speed, also the supension is beefed up a lot making them heavy (er) and then small things like bigger intakes tubes and the like.

Ever seen a cop bust a U-turn and hammer on it to get somewhere? They aint exactly a ball of fire

the ONLY thing mechanical between the police package and maw-maw's grocery getter is bigger coolers, heavier suspension, and different PCM calibration... shouldnt even be a race IMO... I drive cop cars on a regular basis and I'm pretty sure my 4.8 would make even our DPS cruisers look silly...

Didnt get a chance to run it today. His dad drove it to work. I did hangout with him today and he is talkin big stuff about it. Saying that no regular vehicle, much less truck can outrun a cop car.

my friend has had two a 01 and a 06

the 06 will eat the 01 for lunch. 0-60= boat anchor

60-120 pretty damn impressive! picks up a whole new sound at 80 mph, and with airplane gears they really start to shine above 80

so go from a dig or 25 roll no freeway
