9. Perception The alternatives don’t look like police cars, which can also be an advantage Both alternatives have been seen as acceptable options by other police departments

10. Fuel Savings If entire fleet was converted, annual savings in fuel alone would be: Dodge Charger (actual)15 mpg x $3.60 = $53,933 VW Passat TDI (city EPA)31 mpg x $4.10 = $29,589 ($24,344) Toyota Prius II (city EPA)51 mpg x $3.60 = $15,792 ($38,141) Based on 223,724 annual miles driven (2012 actual)

11. Recommendations Replace at least oldest existing vehicles -- not just add to the fleet The more vehicles that are replaced, the more fuel and maintenance savings will occur Consider zero to low interest financing rather than outright purchase to replace at least 6 vehicles
