Frequently when Hooker and Romano are in a pursuit or doing some other type of performance driving, a lot of smoke is seen coming from the tailpipe of their patrol car as it accelerates. The car is a 1977 Dodge Monaco, which as of the 1982 debut was over 5 years old. The cars used in the series were high mileage surplus units from police agencies and the smoke was oil burning due to the high mileage. Circa 1982, the LAPD did not use cars of that age for patrol work, they had shifted to the newer Dodge Diplomat/Plymouth Gran Fury, the Ford Crown Victoria, or the Chevrolet Caprice.
