Berkeley, Calif. cops: Where are our Crown Vics?

I love it when towns buy weird police cars in keeping with a place's cultural vibe. When I lived in Aspen in the late 1970s, the official police uniform was a denim jacket and cowboy hat. And they drove Saabs! From Brad DeLong we have the newest police cruiser from Berkeley. A Prius.
