A 6 cylinder Impala goes 145?

TheLock said:
Thank you. It's a '07 Impala, 6 cylinder. Had it up to 145 on the highways but that took almost 2 miles. I'd love to have a Charger my they are too expensive for our agency.

What has been done to your cruiser to get it to go 145?

Lock, I think you're playing dumb here brother. There is so much about that car that's not legal. Maybe!! Maybe,,, the window tint is legal in Florida but not the head lights and tail lights. It's stupid to tint either in my opinion. If you're an officer of the law you should know that safety is top priority.

Tint limit in Florida for the front windows is 28%, used my tint meter and they are 28% exactly. As for the light covers, I take them off when I drive at night.

Who knows, maybe my speedometer is off a bit at that speed.
