  1. Both would look good in the mod, but I think I have to go with the LASD's K-9 unit because: 1) There is a plethora of CVs and LAPD units. 2) LASD needs some love too.
  2. I was wondering would it be possible to change from the directional arrow keys (used to move the view of the camera) to the well-known first person shooter A S D W configuration? The arrow keys are decent but I think it would be comfortable and more efficient to have the A S D W configuration. Opinions and input welcomed. Thank you in advance.
  3. I find that it's quickest to just do a snatch and grab. Immediately send one patrol car with 2 officers to the lead rioting civilian (w/ the sign), place him under arrest, and then put him in the car. The sooner you do this the less rioters you will have.
  4. I don’t know if there are any Lego fans out there, but during my spare time I enjoy making vehicles out of Lego. My creation is an LAPD cruiser. This vehicle is my own creation, but I tried to build it so that it would look like a Crown Victoria. (It’s pretty hard to do b/c the Crown Vic is a very shapely, curvy car.) The placement of lights was inspired by actual LAPD vehicles. I tried my best to create this vehicle with the limited Lego pieces that I have. I hope you enjoy it. Photo by Mike Peters (I hope you don’t mind me posting your fantastic photos in my post; if you want me to remove them, I’ll do so immediately.) I am aware that the A-pillar is the wrong color. Unfortunately, I do not have those specific bricks in white. There is room for 4 mini figs in the cruiser. Photo by Mike Peters I tried to make the Crown Vic's unique back end. Photo by Mike Peters. Notice the unique V lights. Inspiration Slicktop variant. Back end with the unique amber and blue lights on the driver's side, characteristic of LAPD slicktops.
  5. No, I did not pick up on the FBI SUV fact because I was not able to read everything. Apparently you do not know “exactly what” the USSS is into because you stated, “the Secret Service is all about show.” I am saying that USSS is not all about show. I mentioned afore that,” the USSS does make sure its presence is known for presidential protection.” Regarding the LE question, I was just wondering if you were talking from experience when you stated: “[…] FBI is not known for going bezerk on their unmarked units like some other agencies.” No need to get offended there Mikey.
  6. I did not compare anything. I simply posted up the pictures to help Hoppah get an idea of the types of integral/interior lights that one federal agency uses. Keep in mind that at the time I was not sure which agency the SUV was being created for. I chose to post up USSS pictures because one can actually see the lights in action compared to the DHS vehicle. You are wrong in that the Secret Service is “all about show.” One might assume this because of the portrayal of the SS in the media. Yes, the USSS does make sure its presence is known both for protective and politician notability reasons, but keep in mind that presidential protection is not the only task that the USSS is assigned to perform. In addition, the USSS is responsible for the security of National Special Events (i.e. Olympics), investigation of identity theft, financial fraud crimes, missing and exploited children, and school shootings. The USSS needs the same amount of discretion as the FBI when performing such duties. If you do not mind me asking; are/were you a member of a law enforcement agency?
  7. First of all, I appreciate your work. I was skimming through this thread when I saw what you wrote. I thought I would post up some pictures of unmarked, black SUVs from various federal agencies to help you with your creation. Since your SUV won't have a lightbar, I assume that it will have vehicle integral and/or interior mounted emergency lights. I am absolutely sure you already have great knowledge and ideas about what kind of lights to use, but I hope these pics can help you. I'm assuming your SUV will be from the FBI, but this picture is of an US Secret Service (USSS) Suburban part of a presidential motorcade. Note the side LED lights. Another picture Picture of a Department of Homeland Security Ford Explorer.
