Ten Greatest American Police Patrol Cars

138 Comments

8. Border Patrol Dune Buggy (Arizona)

Specifically, a Desert Patrol Vehicle (DPV), these are some of the most extreme police vehicles used for active patrolling duty. Typically, a DPV is fitted with a VW engine capable of nearly 200 HP. These vehicles can travel up to 80 mph and generally encounter some of the roughest terrain in the country while enduring severe temperature conditions. These go fast in places that Border Patrol SUV’s can’t even reach.

I started out driving the infamous Dodge Diplomats in 1985 - not the greatest car in the world but I still have fond memories of them. Hard to believe they did not mention the last of the Caprices in 1996 with the LT1 engine - probably one of the finest ever built.

I thought an honorable mention might be the Chevy Caprice with the Corvette LTI engine. I never drove one, but I'm told they would go like nothing else!

I like the fact in Honolulu we have subsidized vehicles where you can purchase your own car when you have the senority to make motor and from the approved list. The department fits it out with a removable dome light and siren. They also provide limit gas as well. Other than that they have no markings and they have some unique cars and suv's. Camaros, Chargers and the Chrysler 300 along with the toyota 4 runners are the most popular.
