More and more, lately, I've been seeing Nebraska State Troopers going about their business, making traffic stops, etc., while driving pickup trucks instead of standard issue Ford Crown Vic patrol cars.
And they're not unmarked. They have the same "State Trooper" decals, light bars, etc. as the patrol cars.
Other than probably no one expects to be caught doing 85 mph on I-80 in a trooper driving a pickup truck, I don't see any advantage a pickup would have over a patrol car. And I don't know if they're stock pickups or special versions. The Game Commission officers usually drive 4X4 pickups, but they're usually crawling around in the boondocks instead of making high speed stops on the Interstate.
Anyway, if you're prone to speeding through Nebraska, keep your eyes open for pickup trucks as well as patrol cars.
