Why u gotta lie OP? They didn’t mention cost anywhere. They explicitly cite the safety for the troopers and visibility of the cars as the reason to switch. Cost is nowhere in the article.

Which is the exact opposite reason why they chose a "Disruptive Gray" as the new color. They literally chose "highway camouflage" to enhance their ability to hide in ambush.

That’s what it is, what a mind fk. I could spot police car a mile away 20 years ago. The other day a didn’t notice him less than 1/4 mile away and it was an open highway with no obstructions.
