-> Power trains of police cars are what tend to get the
-> most abuse and they are the most easy to take care of.
-> Engines, transmissions, drive shafts and transaxles can
-> be rebuilt for less than half of the cost of a new one
-> and 9 times out of 10 they are just as dependable as
-> new ones.  The cost is even less if you do the work in
-> house.

Since you think its so easy to rebuild transmissions, i've got 3 in the
garage right now you can come over and rebuild for me. And i dont know
of any police cars with Transaxles as none of them are front wheel
drive. Except maybe a SUV. 
-> That is the biggest problem.  Its hard to get enough
-> money to buy gas and tires for a patrol car much less
-> money for a complete engine rebuild.

The tires i used to have to buy to fit the carpice before i got
diffrent rims cost 135 bucks each they were the same as police issue. I
belive it was a Z rated tire and that is why it cost so much.
