get a Marauder instead, they look better and the Mercury logo is easy enough to identify so folks can breathe a sigh of relief

My thumb is cramping up from all the up votes of felony trump posts. It’s like my own personal Vietnam.

rockerface,

It’s not much, but it’s honest work. Which is more than trump has done in his life

Nah the wheel covers give it away. Undercovers usually have those, police auction ones do not

Are you a cop though - you have to tell us them if you are a cop you know!?!?!? :-P

Just something I picked up at the mount pleasant city police auction - they were practically giving them away

If your police are still using these cars, they are severely under budget being that they are usually over budget and have tanks basically.

Supposedly in Australia they use VWs. With the amount of VWs on the roads they must be paranoid all the time.

MargotRobbie, in He's not going to go easy on you either

Realistically, seeing someone in a setting you do not expect them to be in would make you less likely to recognize them, so it would be less “Hey, Williem Dafoe is in my jury” and more “Hey, that guy in my jury kind of looks like the actor from Spider-man”.

Think of it this way, if Williem Dafoe shows up at say, a tech conference, and went around telling everyone “I’m esteemed Academy Award nominated character actor Williem Dafoe”, most people there are going to think:“Why is there a Williem Dafoe impersonator at this conference?” instead of “Why is Williem Dafoe here?”

Hiding in plain sight.

barsoap,

the actor from Spider-man

You misspelt “The Boondock Saints”.

Crowfiend,

To add to your statement: a few years ago, Henry Cavill went to Times Square in NYC wearing a shirt with the Superman S, and just hung out around signs for Man of Steel, and pretty much nobody recognized him (or if they did, they didn’t let it be known).

MargotRobbie,

But then again, it is New York City, most pedestrian there are always in a rush to get to where they needed to be and wouldn’t take a second glance at even the strangest happening as long as it isn’t blocking their way.

Anticorp,

It pains me to see you refer to William Dafoe as “that actor from Spider-Man”.

MargotRobbie,

It’s his major recent work in public eye, plus the MCU is huge in terms of pop culture, so I’m using this as an example of how he might currently be recognized in public as, not that it is what he is best known for.

(I don’t want to talk about “Poor Things”… )

Anticorp,

His most notable performance for me has always been his Academy Award nominated performance as Sergeant Elias in Platoon. But I do recognize that was 38 years ago.

Rollin in that Crown Vic.

Sam_Bass, in How would this change the story?

Rather not involve Pete Davidson

Daxtron2, in How would this change the story?

Fun fact: Spyro was originally going to be called Pete but they didn’t want Disney to she the everloving shit out of them. His first redesigned name was Pyro but that was too edgy so they went with Spyro. He was also going to be a full size dragon before they settled on his final design!

Do cops even drive crown vics anymore? I don’t even see crown vic taxis now.

InquisitiveApathy,

The iconic police Crown Vic model was discontinued like a decade ago. Like 80% of police cars I see nowadays are SUV’s.

On March 12, 2010, Ford Motor Company unveiled the Ford Police Interceptor Sedan. While sharing a nameplate with the Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, the Police Interceptor Sedan was a variant of the sixth-generation Ford Taurus, shifting from the long-running Panther chassis to an all-wheel drive version of the D3 architecture.[29]

In a design decision, the Police Interceptor Sedan did not adopt the Taurus nameplate, as it was sold alongside the Ford Police Interceptor Utility, derived from the Ford Explorer. Along with heavier-duty components and a redesigned interior, the Police Interceptor Sedan adopted higher-performance steering and suspension tuning. The standard engine was a 3.5-L V6, but a 3.7-L V6 (shared with the Mustang) later became the standard power plant. A twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6 (shared with the Taurus SHO) was also available as an option.[30]

The Ford Police Interceptor Sedan was discontinued alongside the North American Ford Taurus model on March 1, 2019.[31] The Ford Police Interceptor Utility remains in production as of 2022 as Ford’s main police vehicle, sharing its design with the civilian market Ford Explorer.[32]

From the Crown Vic Wikipedia Article

Hildegarde,

Anyone driving a black or white ford explorer is worry some. The tell is the antennas. Cop cars have big antennas on the roof that normal cars don’t have.

Milk_Sheikh,

And the wheels. I get the homage nod to the past, but that big shiny hubcap is a huge tell that isn’t offered on the non-police models.

Murdered out police insignia and shorty antennas only go so far when you floating on that chrome

Every little piece! Every little piece! I can take a sciccor and clip him up, rip him up.

Man that movie was a little dark.

shalafi, in Riding in style

It’s got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It’s got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It’s a model made before the catalytic converter so it’ll run good on regular gas.

Klear, in How would this change the story?

Consummate V’s! I said consummate!
