Damn things look like regular cars (as far as colors go) and would be hard to see in traffic that's for sure.


Florida Highway Patrol Unveils New Stealth Crusiers
Internet Broadcasting Systems | 6 Dec

ORLANDO, Fla. -- The Florida Highway Patrol unveiled a new weapon in the fight against aggressive drivers across the state Monday, according to Local 6 News.

The vehicle, called the Mercury Marauder, is a stealth new cruiser for use in detecting and apprehending aggressive drivers.

Officials said the cars are unmarked and equipped with covert lighting packages, emergency sirens, and the latest speed-measuring devices.

The Marauders have state-of-the-art audio and video recording systems and can safely travel at high speeds.

An anonymous corporate benefactor donated 18 vehicles for the new aggressive driving enforcement program.

FHP Director Chris Knight says that equipment will help in the prosecution of aggressive drivers.

Knight said the Florida Highway Patrol went through its ranks of over 1,800 troopers and hand-picked the best ones for the new aggressive driving enforcement program.

As a Lincoln Mercury Dealer in South Florida, we service a number of these FHP vehicles.

We also sold a number of them. They are cool.

They are a lot bigger than the Camero's and Mustangs that a lot of other state troopers use. I wonder if they can keep up with a riced out Civic.

I have never heard of a Camero, maybe Camaro.(that GM no longer produces) :nuts:

They all have 300hp Cobra motors, they are fast enough for a pursuit vehicle. The Ford Crown Victoria is still the biggest selling Police vehicle in the country. The Marauder is a tweaked and rebadged (Mercury vs Ford) same vehicle.

You can't outrun a radio :eviltongu

If it's a Mercury, I doubt that it can travel safely at high speeds.....

They should have bought the new mustangs - 13.3s in the 1/4 mi stock - waay better than mercury boat POS. I bet more PD will be getting those new DC AWD/RWD platforms with 340 HP.

It would be an honor to get a speeding ticket from a cop who's driving that...

Add in your average dose of Teenager and you have close to a complete list of horrid drivers.

Depends on where you go. The "native Floridian" species is prolific, though not always found in urbanized or well-traveled areas. Hint: check out the WalMart.

These are usually found along the Gulf known as the Redneck Riveria from Pensacola to just south of Panama City...

While that habitat is thriving, don't forget the interior region, from the 'glades up through Okeechobee. As one family member said during her 1-yr occupation of the state, "it appears that there may, in fact, be no laws at all here."

Yes, and they're all after the continuum transfunctioner.

Big deal a black police cruiser with ground effects and 18 inch rims.

Anyone see those pics of the CO Staties with the WRX STI's? Yikes

Not full, but highly concentrated in certain areas.

South Florida, Orlando, Daytona, Tampa, Gainesville (only when class is in session).

While a STi would be a cool novelty, not exactly the ideal car for pushing something else off the road. Haven't you guys ever seen Cops... Geez

Massachusetts has some pretty sneaky cop cars on their highways......

Florida needs high speed tanks....

The Caribineiri (Italian Para-military police) also have tanks. They are some bad mo-fo's.

When I was living in Sicily one of my Sicilian pals said that a member of the Caribineiri was allowed to kill a couple people a year with no questions asked....
