Yea, I hear you. Over the almost 6 years of driving the FR-S I've had all sorts, shapes and sizes of females as me about the car.

Never have I had a single female type ask me about my Suburban.

Not even in my prime! And that was a while ago.

I was, cruising, down the highway when a mustang can racing up. I saw Ford headlights and started bailing off the exit ramp. After he passed I came back on and probably surprised him I was keeping up somewhat. He slowed down but I slowed down more staying behind. I don't trust American cars in America. Probably a cop, haha. He wanted some bad too. Sorry, no dice.

Please, what police department wants the liability of having a mustang. I can see the headlines now: "XXX Police officer spins out into a crowd." On the other hand, it might make a good riot control vehicle...

None, but just the fact they drive a modern American sports car in Connecticut is suspicious. Down south or out west it's more normal. Maybe they are just becoming more popular with the genrral public now...

That's probably a D.A.R.E. car

What? They use unmarked mustangs to pull people over for aggressive driving in Arizona all the time. I just saw a bright yellow one with flashing lights in the rear window and stuff.

I know you were joking but the police around here use all sorts of weird and wonderful vehicles ever since the Crown Vic died. They even used seized "proceeds of crime" vehicles so there are Mustangs, Camaros, Challengers, Escalades, and just about any other higher end car or truck you can imagine. They even have a couple of 10 year old Dodge Caravans in stealth markings that can sneak up on you.

I HAVE SEEN THIS! An ancient Maroon Caravan with red and blue lights in the back window. I was like wtf, is this for real? On 404, of all places

Yep. I think each OPP detachment has at least one. I have seen them in Brantford, London, Windsor and Sarnia. They are frequently used as a spotter vehicle sitting on the shoulder or overpass on the 401 (or appropriate highway number) just waiting for that unsuspecting speeder to just flash by and then they just radio the marked cars up ahead to do the pull over.

This is why I love my V1

Huh, that's pretty interesting. I guess it's 'efficient' but seems shady for traffic enforcement...

Considering 99% of traffic enforcement is simply revenue generation, the shadiness isn't surprising at all.
