Look out bad guys!

There's a new sheriff in town. The 2006 Dodge Charger Police Package. Of course, it has a Hemi in it.

I dont know about other states, but Texas DPS are not the ones you want to pull you over. Those dudes will bust your butt for looking at them wrong. They are tough.

Just this morning I was again passed by TXDPS' Dodge Ram 3/4ton LB pickup truck painted in their blackandwhite livery! Sharp!... and Very stealthy! Who'da thunk that pickup truck was running radar!!! heh heh
This time I did get a chance to see that it DID have the "HEMI" logo on the side instead of the "Big C".. Too bad...It's a gasser...

The sad part about that is they are the hardest to get on with and the most chicken **** when it comes to pulling you over or letting you slide on anything. I realise they are just doing there job but sometimes they really irritate you over something stupid. A lot of my family is in law enforcement so I know a lot of em and they are definately a different breed

I don't know about that. I've been pulled over by Texas DPS several times and they're always professional and courteous. Of course....they STILL write you the ticket....but they're professional and courteous when they do it.

Then again, very recently a State Trooper let me go with a warning when I was going 60 in a 45.

If you're not breaking the law you have nothing to worry about.

That Charger is gonna look SHARP with a big gold Texas on the side of it.

Hmmm.....last time I was pulled over by the Texas DPS was between Odessa and Fort Stockton in 1984. I was doing 85 in a 55 (remember the nationwide 55 MPH speed limit?) in the middle of nowhere in a Volvo 245 Turbo. He wrote me up for 71 and congratulated me on the effectiveness of my 4 wheel disc brakes (I nailed them when the Escort jumped off the dash), but said his instant-on radar was better! He was quite professional about the whole thing. The Ohio license plates didn't help....

As Hoss said, Don't break the law and the DPS won't bother you.

There's no doubt the are extremely courteous as well as professional. They just aren't as forgiving sometimes
