My new Patrol Truck....

Texas DPS bought 6 of these 36' riverine gun boats for fending off the mexican cartels on the Rio Grande. I say we call this the Brown Water Navy - Texas Edition. Each boat carries 4-6 fully automatic, belt fed M240B 7.62mm machine guns plus 2 Barret .50 caliber anti-material semi-automatic rifles, a 40mm grenade launcher, and each officer has their .357sig P229 and a 5.56mm M4. 3x300hp outboards should let it stay in engagement range of anything they want to and let it escape most other situations, also armor plated. Not my pictures, but it sure seemed like a whole hell of a lot of "shut the F*&k up" . . .

Awsome boats and I understand there intended use but its kinda of ironic that the highway patrol has boats to patrol a river.

I agree, so what there gonna do is even Patrol the Highways with these, this is a Perfect Hook it to a Truck, go right down the Highway, there wont be anymore speeders in all of Texas.

A friend of mine is a Trooper in the Dallas area, and he had said something about there being openings for the Texas DPS navy, I thought he was joking, guess not lol!

We don't "F" around in Texas. HA!



Thanks for sharing.

We took one of our white Crown Vics, painted it gray and applied ghost graphics (aka Stealth Graphics) for a low-profile look that is still considered a marked unit. The graphics really pop in direct sunlight and at night when light hits it.



This is a 2008 Ford CVPI and is used for Traffic and DWI Enforcement.
