Here in CT the state police do have Dodge Intrepids in thier fleet although most of the cars are Crown Vics. I don't know what, if any, mods were done to the Intrepids mechanically from regular production.

As a side note, I believe one of the worst things GM did was to cancel the Caprice several years ago without having a replacement available. This basically gave Ford the whole police and taxi business. It's true the new Impala is being used by some departments but it doesn't match up to what the Caprice (older Impala) was.

(and for the record, I do own a Caprice...........an '87 9 pass wagon, 167,200 on the odo)
