The maximun I will go is $2.00 and no more and I want to pay it out over time without interest, late fees, or fines.

Word on the street is that Higgy Baby is mad as hell about this. He lost his boy to Tucker Pct. and his boy Friday to uniform patrol.
What next, "Hey Buddy" gonna retire?

Damn, my neighborhood was next to get the magic bus to come in and scare off the criminals. Thanks Burrell!

Hey, does it still come with the blue lights? I see blue lights still mounted to it. I'll bid $3.00.

Seriously guys, when and where is the auction? I need something to travel in on my trip out west and this beast would certainly attract the hot babes and jail-bait! Hargh! I can just imagine myself driving down the road in the pride of DKPD while....
On second thought.... lets just stick to the basics like when and where the auction is.

Best of luck mates!

Anon 10:46, I understand bleach kills just about anything. I saw it on TV.
Hargh!
Catch y'all on the flip-side, I am heading to the mountains until Irene rains me out.
Stay safe out there mates!

Now, if I happen to find a couple boxes of unmarked $100 bills in a box under one of the seats, do I get to keep them?

Why not use one for a mobile CSI lab like Gwinnett has. Imagine that, a police department that actually has legitimate use for the specialized vehicles it buys...like having a nice place for CSI to process evidence at a major crime.

The sad part is that he (TeBo) really thought this was a great idea! hahahaaaaa!!!!

I'll bid $10 for it. Just think what a few cans of rustoleum green, brown and black paint could do for a camo job on that puppy. Talk about Hillbilly DeLux and the talk of the hunting camp....
I remember a joke several years back about a teacher who told little Johnny to use the word "timbucktoo" in a sentance :)

Doesn't matter what you bid, just write a SBS Check and when it bounces and they just fine you. We all know the County doesn't collect it's fines if you don't pay.

What great memories of that Queen size bed in the back. Several promotions were negotiated back there. What are the officers that were assigned to babysitting the buses doing with their time now days? Oh, forgot there is always that damn ticket quota. Might as well throw 90 into the auction while we are at it. What increases in policing have you seen since the tax increase? Maybe SBS can hire a consulting firm to investigate haow much the buses are worth!

I happened to see the window sticker on one of those puppies soon after it was bought. $373,246. Can't forget the number because it made me think, when you multiply that by 5 buses, how many take-home cars that could have bought us. Though I know the county paid less than retail, still all told it was over $1 million for all five. Ho hum...

$373,000?? A piece? 5 buses? That's a sweet commission check for Bolton's family member at the dealership!

I would bid, however, I haven't received a raise or cost of living increase (insert chortle here) in several years. What pisses me off about those buses is that I understood they were purchased from a relative of Bolton. What a joke. They were purchased to deter crime but we had to sit in those damned things to keep our perps from 45ing the flatscreen tv.Still, we weren't good enough to urinate in the toilets. Guess we aren't quite on par with sanitation BurElllis.
