Hell NO!
The Ford Crown Vic interceptor is a well known police vehicle.
No "Undercover" copper would use one
The Undercover car of choice is a nondescript <anything> that fits the area. Often chosen from the Impound lot.
"Undercover" means NOT being identified as a cop, blending into the neighbourhood. You don't need the power or Speed for Chases (except in TV & Movies).
Also, mentioning that the Crown Vic was discontinue in 2011 it has been replaced by the Ford Taurus (sixth generation)
Not any more. Ford stopped building Crown Vics several years ago, and MOST police departments have retired their big Ford sedans in favor of newer cars.
Nope, the police officers that I know who do surveillance or plain clothes work, use common cars that don't scream "I'm a cop". Minivans and very ubiquitous cars like the Camry are what they tend to use.
- Why don't automakers commonly make 3 or 5 cylinders? Most reliable cars like toyota or honda are only come with 4 and 6 cylinder are available and what do you think of those engines? There's still exist, like discontinued inline 5 of vw, few inline 3 on ford and mitsubishi but 3 are unreliable.
- Which Class A RV is more commonly rented? A) Diesel (on a Freightliner, Roadmaster, or Spartan Chassis) b) Gas (on a Ford F53 chassis) c) both A and B d) none of the above When you answer, can you give me an explanation?
- Do some people really care that much about driving a really nice car? My dad is perfectly okay with his 1992 Ford Taurus with 210,000 miles on it, no heat (he lives in Chicago btw), no A/C, and a f::::ked up passenger side door. He's not poor by any means, he's a CFO of a bank. He just says that driving that P. Builds character and he only cares about having a car that can take him from point A to point B.
