Kirkpatrick : ' INTRODUCTION The National j~dvisory Committee for Law Enforcement Equipment and Technology (NACLEET), wh"ich is advisory to the Equipment Technology Center (ETC) Of the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), has ranked police patrol vehicle testing as its number one priority in the transportation area. The ETC program is an evaluation program to provide data for the purchasers, users, manufacturers, and researchers of law enforcement equipment. Last year, the ETC conducted the National Law Enfor,cement Vehicle Evaluation Program MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF STATE POLICE in California in conjunction with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. After the first year's effort, it became evident that 49-state vehicles and California vehicles should be tested separately to speed up the process. This year, the Mi chi 9an State Pol ice (MSP) deci ded to test both full size and mi d AND size vehicles. Since testing by the ETC \'vould be a duplication of the Michigan effort, it was decided to monitor, reprint and publish the MSP test results. The ETC sent two staff representatives to the MSP testing program to observe MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET the testing. The MSPprogram was conducted in a most professional manner giving good test data for departments to use. It should be pointed out that two full size cars and one mid size car did not meet MSP performance criteria. However, the three IIfailing cars II did wen in the handling and braking phases of the test. These IIfailingll cars are good police package vehicles which many depa~tments will be able to use even though they are a little slower than the passing vehicles. The ETC looks forward to working with the MSP on 1981 vehicle testing and would like to thank Colonel Gerald R. Hough, Director, MSP, for his department's cooperation and professionalism in getting this year's testing program accomplished in a timely manner. 1980 PATROL VEHICLE SPECIFICATIONS~ EVALUATION, AND PURCHASING PROGRAM : \, ;,w ~ r I , . r !; ~!

  • 1 Fundamental Car Groups, 1981-2011
    FUNDAMENTAL CAR GROUPS, 1981-2011 (Shared Body Platforms) 1. The first line of the definition assigns a five-digit number to the car group; the first two digits indicate the manufacturer, based on FARS codes (1=AMC, 6=Chrysler, 12=Ford, 18=GM, etc.); the last three digits are sequential and generally chronological for that manufacturer. 2. The second line assigns a name to the car group and gives the limits of the range of model years for the various make-models in the car group. Car groups are often named after the largest selling make-model with that body platform and/or the wheelbase of that platform (to the nearest inch). 3. The third line shows the wheelbase of the cars in that group, as derived from "New Car Specifications" in Automotive News or Ward’s Automotive Yearbook. 4. The remaining lines list the specific make-models included in the car group, including a five-digit make-model code, the make-model name (plus additional specifications such as "4-door" if not every car of that make-model is in that car group during the specified time period), a range of model years, and the VIN characters that identify specifically which cars belong to this car group (V3 is the 3rd character of the VIN, V34 is the 3rd and 4th character, etc.).

As hundreds of spectators and news media looked on, 41 cars motored past the official finish line in front of Cobo Hall. The vehicles, all American-made models, were completing the wildly popular, annual contest known as the Mobil Economy Run.
