MARQUETTE, MI-- The Marquette County Sheriff’s Office is one of three law enforcement agencies around the country to get a new all-wheel drive pursuit patrol vehicle.
The 2014 Dodge Charger was provided by Chrysler in December of 2013 for a one- to two-year evaluation period.
In April Fox Negaunee delivered the vehicle, which was outfitted with radio, video, and computer equipment provided by Setina Corp. Vehicle diagnostics and driving information will be sent to Chrysler through a wireless data logger installed in the vehicle.
The Sheriff’s Office paid $1 for the vehicle and $1 for all the equipment. It’s the first all-wheel drive police pursuit-rated patrol sedan.
The vehicle is also being evaluated by the Michigan State Police and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Office.
