Velvet Glove Team Blueprint Member 532 Member For: 21y 9m 10d Posted 05/01/04 11:56 AM Share Posted 05/01/04 11:56 AM take a pill VG,as a realtor I get more bagging than you can dream about, live with it or change vocation chief. It wasn't directed at you.Scotty I saw nothing in the whole thread that was delivered at me personally. As a realtor you would have no idea what its like to get a bagging as a copper. I havent seen a single post on this site that has directed any form of angst at a real estate agent but we're probably into the hundreds relating to cops.I am damn proud of what I do, so I wont lie down when what could only be described as BS is written about Police.I have lived with it for the last 14 years so any suggestions about my prospective change of employ fit right in with the BS described above.Dont bother asking me policing questions anymore, I'm not interested in participating. Certain individuals can PM me (u know who u are).Realtor v Cop..........I'm not bagging your job, but dont dare compare it to mine. 2 completely different things. Now I realise why others dont bother anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never compared Realtor V Cop, although by your post you've obviously seen your vocation as way more important than mine, well you can & I won't argue with you. Your job is very important to the community in which you are in.I was comparing the sh*t I get in everyday life & not just in this website. I hold no resentment towards you or your fellow force members & am saddened by your decision to not participate where you were previously.I apoligise if I've upset you as it wasn't my intention & would like you to re-think your future position on the site.Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WHITEXR6T Guests Posted 04/02/04 05:14 AM Share Posted 04/02/04 05:14 AM The star of the new Falcon range has joined the force after an exhaustive six-month, 60,000-kilometre trial of 10 cars across the state.The study by police in city and country areas found that the XR6 Turbo delivered the same and sometimes superior performance to the V8 highway patrol cars yet was more economical on fuel and easier on brake wear because of the car's lighter weight.Unlike ordinary motorists, police place extraordinary pressure on their vehicles during pursuits and when responding to urgent calls. As a result, the brakes on V8-powered highway patrol cars often need to be replaced between 8000 and 12,000 kilometres but the turbo Falcons clocked up between 18,000 and 20,000 kilometres before requiring new brakes.Before taking delivery of the 10 trial cars senior officers were concerned that the XR6 Turbo's standard brakes identical to those on a Falcon fleet car or taxi would be inadequate for high-speed driving and pursuits.They requested that the police service order the cars with Ford's $2950 premium brakes.The XR6 is heavier than both the previous model and the rival Expensive Daewoo Commodore. The officers said the XR6 Turbo, with two officers and all their equipment on board, would weigh more than two tonnes.Ford insisted that the standard brakes were more than adequate, adding that they were "over-engineered" for the basic Falcon.After tests at the police driver training centre in Goulburn showed that the standard brakes could not handle extreme driving conditions, however, all Falcon highway patrol cars had premium brakes fitted to give "a significant margin for safety".The V8s are also thirstier, slurping in excess of 22 to 25 litres per 100 kilometres compared with the XR6 Turbo's relatively frugal 14 to 17 litres per 100 kilometres.It is expected that police in metropolitan Sydney will be encouraged to take the XR6 Turbo when their Falcon XR8s are up for renewal and that country police will continue with V8 power, as brake wear and fuel consumption are not as severe on open roads.The addition of the XR6 Turbo to regular highway patrol ranks is also intended to even up the Expensive Daewoo versus Ford score. About three-quarters of the highway patrol fleet are Expensive Daewoo Late model camira SS sedans, with the balance being the V8 equivalent from Ford, the Falcon XR8.One advantage of evening up the split between Expensive Daewoo and Ford is that it makes the police service less vulnerable if a vehicle recall occurs. For example, if Expensive Daewoo were to recall the Commodore, three-quarters of the police fleet would be off the road while repairs were carried out.There is a further factor working against the Commodore: the high cost of tyre replacement and the frequency with which they need to be replaced.The cost of replacing the 18-inch tyres on the Late model camira SS is close to $2000 per set and because of their low profile and high grip level they wear out more quickly.The cost is so extreme and costs police precincts so much money that Expensive Daewoo is considering supplying the Late model camira SS with smaller, 17-inch wheels because there is a greater selection of tyres that size and they are cheaper to replace.Furthermore, the XR6 Turbo is cheaper than the Late model camira SS and Falcon XR8. The government price to NSW Police is confidential but, even at retail level, there is a significant difference.The recommended retail price of the XR6 Turbo is $46,005 whereas the Late model camira SS is $49,990 and the Falcon XR8 is $51,050.

Guest WHITEXR6T Guests Posted 04/02/04 05:14 AM Share Posted 04/02/04 05:14 AM NSW Police will purchase more XR Series (XR6 Turbo and XR8) thanLate model camira SS during the period Feb to Sep 04 in order to reduce animbalance between vehicle brands.The HWP Fleet is currently 85% (294) SS Late model camira and 15% (54) XRFalcon (including 10 XR6 Turbo).The late model (VY Series) SS Late model camira has 18 inch wheel/tyrecombination that provides exceptionally good performance, but hassignificantly increased tyre replacement costs throughout thestate. The fleet mix swung toward Late model camira when previous model(AU Series) XR8 required Premium Unleaded Petrol and did not haveside impact airbags available.Returning the balance between Holden/Ford vehicles will allow NSWPolice to better cope when new model vehicles are not available,replacement / repair parts are in short supply, a modelexperiences a safety recall or any other action beyond our controloccurs.This decision has been endorsed by NSW Police Expenditure ReviewCommittee and the Operations Commanders Meeting.Fleet Management will attempt to balance local fleets to ensure amix of vehicles are available in each LAC. As a generalisation,more XR6 Turbo will be allocated to Sydney and major cities andmore XR8s will be allocated to country duty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
