I guess the reason would vary by department. A police department can purchase any type of car they want, but the Ford Police Interceptor (what I use, and I like it very much) and the Chevy Impala (slow acceleration, kind of cramped) seems to be the norm right now.

Our patrol division has only marked, unmarked and slicktop Crown Vic Police Interceptors. The detective division also uses Crown Vics. I believe the Bureau of Special Operations in my department has some interesting and unusual cars, but I am not sure what exact vehicles they have.
