A cops car should be like this, their car is their office, they are in their cars most of the time, so it’s great they are adding these features. Small features go a long way when your in your vehicle 8-10 hours a day.
@@TravisTLK yeah. Basically everything is computerized and so intricately synced and put together. Its just a matter of time before something electronic fails.
Oh yeah. My city’s local police used to use SRT Chargers, but they were retired early. I have a friend who is a mechanic for city vehicles, and he said they gave them so many problems.
@CJ Lane Where you been? Here in New Orleans of Louisiana, the NOPD since for the past few years has been getting a bunch of Tahoes on their fleet. To where it's going to surpass the Explorer as a, Flagship Fleet Vehicle. There arent any Chargers on their fleet , while some Crown Victorias from En Mass , remains.
That’s the first thing I said. I love buying retired law enforcement vehicles. I’ve had fbi suburbans, expeditions and they have been nothing but great and well maintained.
It's about time they put some high tech gadgets in the Tahoes. They bought some Explorers at my place and they have some nice stuff, but this is really next level. If you've never spent time in the front seat of police car, they are tight and uncomfortable and there is never room for anything. Just having a slot for a gas card makes me smile, let alone all the other features.
An excellent police vehicle, the Tahoe PPV (2 and 4 wheel drive option) and the SSV ( non street pursuit; 4 wheel drive only). A combination of room ( from the Caprice ) , bad weather capabilities ( from the Impala 9C1), the toughness ( from the Suburban/Silverado) and the speed ( from Corvette/Camaro).
column shift is so much easier id not wanna fiddle with buttons, plus the safe idle thing is done much better on chargers, the back steering wheel button on both sides instantly sets it.
Look at GM: Trying to sell the button shift to Police, all so they don't lose a couple minutes per Police Tahoe on the assembly line. For the price of these things, they should stay with what has worked for seventy years. They could easily make electronic Column Shifters. It would take 10ths of a second for an Officer to put a Column Shifter in park, by FEEL and MUSCLE MEMORY. Then, if they jumped out and left it in drive, they could have it do the same thing.
I mean actual cops say this is a welcome change, its just the fanboys who need to firmly grasp and handle their thick shafts who are upset over losing column shifters
@Fermi Paradox what you mean is you don't mind your neighbor's tax dollars being spent on this. And laws can be enforced from vehicles costing less than this rig does.
@@joepalmer3241 News flash for ya'. These vehicles, are basic Trim vehicles. Which are 50000 bucks are lower than that. Not the LTZ top of the line trims that are almost 100000 bucks.
It needs a column shift because now cops are going to be in a rush and probably it a wrong button what is wrong with these designers we like an actual shifter
I was expecting GM to at least keep it for the police. That sucks how now it's completely gone. GM made that mistake by using a floor shifter for the Caprice Police Interceptor and in later years the floor shifter was swapped for a column shifter. Hopefully the same happens here with the Tahoes/Suburbans.
They really do need to figure out an assisted column shift. The issue with physical shift is that it doesn’t enable features like the rolling autopark when the door is opened. If they have a column shifter that’s motorized, it may be possible to have a computer actually move the shifter without a person there. The other option is a fully digital shift system like in this video, but with a “fake” column shifter that’s just more like a simulation of the classic column shifter, but with electronic buttons seated deep inside.
@@42luke93 yeah just because it’s easier for the cops to know what gear they are in instead of looking to see which button to push ...very stupid on their decision with that same with dodge the snow plovers need an actual shifter not a rotator knob so dumb
The auto stop shift to park feature is really for drivers who can’t remember to shift into park when they get out. Sounds great, but it will lull people, including eventually police, into complacency. Nice truck, most comfortable police vehicle, but the push-pull button shifter looks terribly slow and awkward. Column shift would be better.
@@james2042 And Ram with its supposedly terrible rotary shifter outsold the Silverado. Column shifters are clunky, outdated, are able to be positioned *between* gears, and can easily overshoot the intended gear (such as L1 instead of D). Not to mention they occupy valuable space in front of the instrument panel. People are living in the fuckin' 90s.
GM is starting to further away from the LQ9/6.0. They use the 6.2 as the bigger option in the lighter duty pickups and suvs and 6.6 gas v8 for the heavy duty pickups. The 6.2 would’ve been a better option though I agree
the 6.0 is being phased out completely, the vans even use the 6.6 now. The 5.3 makes more power now than the 6.0 did at launch and its significantly more fuel efficient, which matters A LOT more to police
@@james2042 yes, fuel economy matters more, highway patrol uses v8 chargers for acceleration anyways. Funny thing is that may departments don't even allow vehicular chases anymore so speed is a non-issue
@@Carterthielftw_ they use the 5.7 hemi because the 3.6 just doesn't have enough torque for the extra weight from their gear and upfits. They still need to get up to speed on a highway when someone goes by too fast, even if its only to grab their plates then back off.
With the 2021 Tahoe having a heavier weight than the outgoing 2020 and not getting any upgrades to the 5.3, we shall see if the 2021 is as capable of high speed pursuits. The lane assist and automatic braking are not suitable for police interceptors. They can cause more issues whenever the officer is in a hurry while responding or during a pursuit.
The 6.2L and baby duramax can't fit due to the unique bumper design which wouldn't allow for proper cooling. It'd cost too much for GM to remake it when it'd only account for a small portion of sales.
@@MrTehPenguin perhaps. I know my county only buys Tahoe’s due to the large rural areas. I’d be willing to bet they’d do diesels for the mileage if they decided to figure it out. Oh the baby-max is the 2.8 in the Colorado.
Here in texas I have only seen Commercial vehicle enforcement from sheriff's/City PD/DPS and some DPS Highway Patrol Drive the Full size Suv The rest drive the mid size SUV so you probably wont see these to often if u live in the city limits.
Why am I even interested in getting this now? I'm no cop. Hopefully my local service will get one of these puppies and hopefully I'll be able to go for a ride along in one of these.
6.0 is officially EOL and the 6.2 runs on premium. Not to mention the 5.3 is more than sufficient and really the 6.2 is a luxury engine. The 6.6 in the HD's are way less fuel efficient which matters to police more as well
5.3s get nearly or almost big block power. And are better on fuel. Thats why dudes with sqaurebody chevies of the 1980s switch out 454s for the 6.2s to 4.8s
