if you thought robocop was great...
The E7 doesn’t exist, but if police agencies nationwide know what’s good for them, it will. It would be the world’s first purpose-built police car, a diesel-powered Dodge Charger look-alike with a laundry list of built-to-order options, such as armored front doors and dashboards (capable of stopping 9-mm rounds) and forward-looking infrared cameras. But the biggest potential innovation here is the business model. “Law enforcement agencies don’t buy in bulk,” says William Li, chairman and CEO of Atlanta-based Carbon Motors. “They have no economies of scale.”For major automakers, there’s no profit in designing a niche product like a purpose-built squad car. So agencies continue to buy standard Crown Victorias or Chevy Tahoes and then install aftermarket lights, sirens, laptop docks and other gear. As a leaner, niche-vehicle startup, Carbon Motors—started by ex-Ford executives—wants to deliver a high-performance, fully integrated patrol vehicle for roughly the same price as the retrofitted models currently on the road. In theory, by standardizing the installation process for the various police-friendly options, and using newer manufacturing processes (including thermoplastics instead of paint for customized color schemes), Carbon Motors could squeak out a profit that, as Li calls them, “legacy automakers” couldn’t.
The E7 would go from 0 to 60 mph in 6 seconds, with a top speed of 155 mph, and a slew of humble-sounding improvements, like seats that can accommodate radios and other bulky equipment. According to Li, the E7 would start in the high-20s, climbing up to as much as $70,000 with options like license-plate-reading cameras and even WMD sensors. In the long run, the E7 could prove more cost-effective than current patrol cars: Carbon Motors claims it will be 40 percent more fuel efficient, with a life span of 250,000 miles (most models used as police cars are expected to last for 70,000 miles).
Short-Term Impact: Carbon Motors is still on the hunt for funding. According to Li, a “large financing transaction” could lead to a working E7 within three years.

his arrogance will haunt him till the end. when the history channel first come out with "how star trek changed the world", patrick stewart was suppose to narroate the 3 hour long special, but during production, shatner like the little baby he is, just hounded both stewart and the discovery network until he got the part. unfortunately he got the part and started to piss and moan that frakes was allowed to narroate for not even little 3 minute segments mainly describing what were the difference's of roddenbury's visions of the TOS and TNG era's that infulenced today's modern tech. i mean when it comes right down to it, shatner is a *buttocks*, and will forever remain an *buttocks*.

i heard a uncomfirmed rumor that it's a chance they'd end the movie with the beginning of generations. so maybe shatner will settle for cameo without actually being on the set lol.

new zealand should just outlaw everything from tv to sex while they can. i mean you just can make people lose weight just to get into the country. just as to you can't make some people quit smoking or stop drinking.

forest gump lol sorry first thing that came to mind

season four had to be the best one so far. only because the writers failed to do something half orginal in the first three seasons. the only reasons the fourth season was better, was because they aired episodes like bringing back the alternate universe episodes or the signing of the federation charter. not to mention tie in a episode of TNG for the series finale...and killing off trip......but anyway im done ranting.

i don't care, im gonna continue with my santa jokes lol. let them try to stop me
