On September 15, 2011 at exactly
12:30 p.m. the last Ford Crown
Victoria rolled off the assembly
line at the St. Thomas Assembly
Plant in Ontario, Canada.
Employees both swooned over and
mourned the final Crown Vic which
has been the flagship vehicle to
fleets of so many different
industries.
Some departments stocked up a supply
of final-year Crown Vics so they
could let other agencies go through
the trial-and-error headaches of
identifying the law enforcement
staple car.
Other agencies are kicking tires and
pouring over auto review websites
for what will serve as the
trusted car for the next generation.
NJLawman.com put together a list of
the eight vehicles being considered
throughout the country as a
replacement to the Crown Victoria.
None have yet been crowned the
successor to the Crown Victoria, so
we'll have to wait and see.
With the differing needs of
differing agencies, it's possible
that we have seen the last of the
one-size-fits-all patrol car.
