night cub ◊ 2019-08-15 06:29	They're about as generic a car design as you can get. A box on wheels.
Reg1992 ◊ 2019-08-15 07:25	I can see why LAPD opted for the full-size Chevrolets instead of these. But these Fairmonts still look nicer to me than any of the last 15-20 years of cars does.
Baube ◊ 2019-08-15 07:29	still have more authority than this one
night cub ◊ 2019-08-15 07:47	They look very similar, but yes K-cars were even boxier -- Last edit: 2019-08-15 07:48:04
Reg1992 ◊ 2019-08-15 09:06	More reasons why they ought to stick to full-sizers, anything smaller just looks weird as police vehicles.
Baube ◊ 2019-08-15 09:09	that's a theory.. another one would be full-sizers contains more donuts boxes..
