What you want to see? - Id like to see the top speed for the Ford Police Interceptor Sedan (The 2013 Ford Taurus) increased to match or be just under the top speed of the 2012 Dodge Charger. The Taurus has a top speed of about 65MPH, Compared to the 2012 Charger at about 70mph and the 2015 Charger at about 72mph. I would like to see the Taurus speed increased to be matched with the 2012 at 70mph or Bumped to 68mph

Why should we add it? - This allows Newer officers increased ability in pursuits where they might be up against faster vehicles such as the BMW M1 or a Challenger/other sports vehicle. I believe that with a speed bump continued with the Taurus's current handling will make a more balanced Patrol Vehicle for Newer Officers.  The chargers still being more faster vehicles for Higher ranks. 

Command members also like to use the Taurus as well because of its handling. A Speed increase would make the Taurus a great Command/Traffic vehicle as well.

The Taurus in its current format is unable to keep up in pursuits and not suited for pursuit of sports vehicles which are common.

What are the advantages of having this? - Give's Newer PD and command a more balanced Patrol Vehicle that's well handled with proper driving. Allows PD a chance to keep up in pursuits where other gov have chargers or other Government Vehicles 

Who is it mainly for? - PD

Unfortunely this cannot be done because previously someone else requested the 2020 ford interceptor vehicle to be better of performance of like driving up hills better and what not and was denied because in order to change stats/performances of any vehicle you ideally need the author/creator of the vehicle to make changes to the vehicle its self.

Ima slide in here just for a side note. It is very much possible to adjust vehicle performance on the server side. While the addon itself cannot be edited, the SVN is free to use and has no (that I can reasonably find) restrictions on editing/altering for personal/server use. While it strictly states files cannot be reuploaded "ANYWHERE", editing for server use as a server side file does not fall under this statute. Meaning Gaminglight may download the Taurus's SNV and edit its performance ONLY for server use.  only downside is gaminglight will need to download the .gma for the TDM Emergency and edit it there OR remove the TDM Emergency workshop addon and download the SVN for each vehicle in the pack. which COULD save space by removing unused vehicles and allow for the vehicles to be edited. 

So This is indeed possible and (as far as my 22 year old non lawyer self can tell) legal for GamingLight to do.

Denied. The SMT team for this server has decided against adding this suggestion for performance reasons, the benefit to the server, or another unstated reason.
