There is a 300 amp alternator running in my car right now..usually a 120 amp draw for running our digital camera systems, digital radio, satellite uplink, laptops and Lojack. Then add a lightbar and siren..Battery space limited to 900 CCA battery.

Why do we sit in a car with our car idling? Because 1. We put up with so much sh%t from "you people" 2. We get accused of "donut diving" although I have never had a donut in 21 years "while working". 3. because we are lazy, 4. because it isn't our gas, it's the taxpayers 5. All of us don't give a damn about global warming because we are too pissed off at other things.

The truth is...The police car is "our office". Do you have AC on at work? Heat? radio? We do most of our work in the car. Have any of you ever played sports for years and been injured? I have broken 14 bones on the job, broke ankle, leg, both radius (arm) pinky ring and middle finger, metatarsus, collar bone...all on the job in Detroit. It is somewhat comfortable after 21 years to just chill.

You have us sitting in our office (cruiser) and you think we are lazy...Well, go sit in your office and enjoy yourself and your cold a/c, microwave, saftey of your four walls, because my office has a bullseye on it and no matter what, I feel safe there. Just becuase mine has wheels, you don't like it?

They be hatin' when they see me rollin'

It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?
