A good question though is how much do you have to change before you can legally drive it?
This guy here seems to believe that driving a police car with lights and even "911" and "Dodge Law Enforcement" is Ok as long as it doesn't say the word "Police" at which point it would be impersonating a police officer.

In this police forum where they are discussing the issue one person notes that in California driving anything that remotely looks like a police car is illegal, and another states that in Tennessee you can drive a police car if you feel like it. So state laws perhaps vary as to whether you have to remove the decals and/or repaint the whole thing before driving a decalled surplus acquisition.

Then proceeded to cruise around town. The Police were, of course, not amused. He got it impounded twice, but they had to return it on both occasions with no charges filed.
Then, you know, they are also cool with others’ impersonation of well known Tennessean.
Seriously though are they the only state left with "Constables" which are completely independent law enforcement officers who have to buy their own cruisers, guns, and uniforms, which they get to design themselves?
It sounds pretty cool, like there's no possibility of conspiracy with other cops in their department since there aren't any, there's no supervisor so they can't say they were just following orders, and if the entire local police force is corrupt, one can use the constable as a last form of justice. And if people don't like the job they are doing they can simply vote them out.
