profile of the vehicle would be advantageous. This was one of the most innovative
products we judged. With a stable platform, ease -of -use, and maneuverability, the T3 is

Law Enforcement Group, recognized outstanding
companies whose products have best responded
to law enforcement's market challenges by offering
creative and forward -thinking ideas. The ability to

by an esteemed panel of law enforcement
professionals on the following six criteria —
Innovation, Ease -of -use, Cost Effectiveness,
Quality Contribution, Maintainability, and
Productivity Improvements. From April 2007
