I recall on 128 the MA state police used, of all things, a red ford panel van. Funniest thing to see a mustang pulled over with a red van behind it with a cop writing a ticket. The only give-away were the blues in the grill. They also had a blacked out Ford Probe GT. Also, in Billings/southern Montana they had late 90s Z28 camaros. The speed limit at that time during the day was "reasonable and prudent" Apparently they needed the Z28s to enforce prudent. -- John

Are you from Mass? Are you the John with the Corolla? For sale? ;p Do you remember when they had an 18 wheeler? They used it on the Pike a lot. It would be set up with the flashers and the the orange triangles, and up by the cab a state trooper with a radar gun, and a chase cruiser hidden from view. At the Lee end of the pike (westfield barracks, I think) they had a 1993 Lincoln MK VIII...Ford GAVE them to them! > > Also, in Billings/southern Montana they had late 90s Z28 camaros.

I think that there is only one left in the fleet now. Most of them were wrecked by the guys who thought that they knew how to drive them at over 100 mph!! -- Steve W. (\___/) (='.'=) (")_(") |
