      Apparently you're too ignorant to know this didn't exist then and ever so stubborn. The Chevrolet Tahoe did not enter production until *January 20, 1995* , AFTER the June 1994 OJ chase. It was FIRST released for sale in *March 1995* .
      Only the bigger GMT400 Suburbans were in use, not these shorties.
      Again, you do not know what you're talking about and are making a childish argument on the obvious.
      A lot of you kiddies who weren't around back then or old idiots with a terrible memory, seem to be the first folks to comment on these past artifacts without the facts.
      This is much newer than a 1995 Tahoe, maybe being a 1999 or 2000 police fleet model according to other comments.
      I really do not see the point of arguing with someone more informed than yourself, just because you feel it's similar to some nostalgic era.
      Stop spreading misinformation because you're too lazy to figure out the facts for yourself.

In LA, it used to be one or two can lights on the roof of the car that flashed amber back and forth with each other at the rear, and were steady red at the front. Then LAPD switched to rotating light bars like the Twinsonic and Aerodynic and Jetsonic. Then they went to Code 3 rotating bars. Some of their undercover units just had a red light behind the mirror and amber blue deck light in the back. Nowadays they use Federal Signal Arjent and Valor bars.

I immediately went over to Walmart which is like a mile away and got an oil change and check all the fluids... The suburban made it over three mountain ranges on way to Seattle I work there for about a year using the vehicle everyday.....
