I am talking about public servants in general. Does the police force pay for it's own vehicles? How do public employees get paid? Where does the money come from that they get? How do they earn the money that pays there way in the world. Where does it come from? Does it come from plumbers and contractors and electricians and business men and fast food workers? Does it come from the private sector? What are taxes? And how are they spent? Where do taxes come from? How does a city or state get them? And is that considered earning them? Is it the same as us going to work to get our money? What do they produce? Or are they just taking from everyone who pays taxes?

Seriously, a Corvette to appeal to kids? Maybe they should have used it for speed enforcement.

Too costly to maintain. It was already a piece of junk when PW seized it.

I think C-D has another forum for questions like these.

Was it a GT? Because if it was a Mustang GT, than I'd be extra carefull. Those things are super fast and kick the crap out of those BMW Machines.

The obvious answer is that the cars are needed for life-saving organ transplant shipment between local hospitals
