Please take a look a the exhibit from the Truck Trend article (1st link you shared):
http://www.trucktrend.com/features/news/2010/163_news100208_chevrolet_tahoe_police_fleet/photo_02.html
You'll notice the Impala is lower cost of ownership after 3-4 years on average. If we're keeping cars 5-6-7 years, then we'll save money by going with the Impala. And that doesn't account for $4 gas which we'll surely see during this new car's lifetime. That will swing the break even point even sooner. Impalas aren't ideal and are a little wimpy for sure, but they can save money.
At the end of the day, GM as a brand is a good choice. I look fwd to Ford's Interceptor and its stated efficiency to shake up this Best Of list!
I'm looking fwd to researching the other links you shared. Thx much.
Thanks,
Cortney
