Meredith Frameli, a police public information officer, told the Bradenton Herald on Tuesday that the car will be auctioned off at Tampa Machinery Auction, but she doesn’t know when.
The Bradenton Police Department’s current fleet consists of Ford Explorers, Chevy Tahoes, Dodge Chargers, Ford Taurus, and a few Chevy Caprices.
Moving ahead, the department has chosen to mostly use SUVs for patrol duties because of the extra gear storage, greater water capabilities and passenger space.
