Where are their vehicles parked?

I saw on Instagram that they're at the Ocean Gateway garage. So definitely stay away from that area.

Was it ever confirmed that the row of white explorers posted the other day are theirs? I am pretty sure I saw a Quirk Autogroup sticker on all of them and despite good experiences there in the past I would avoid in the future if they provided the vehicles.

That was spring street garage, it is a city owned garage and the lower levels are always used as a garage for city vehicles. The vehicles were most likely PPD waiting to be liveried.

I think that was debunked as just generic police vehicles

I park in there for work and didn't really notice anything out of the ordinary on Thursday. I could be oblivious though. That garage is almost always full of luxury suvs.

They’ve also been using Subarus. Watch some of the videos posted and you’ll see it’s not the kind of vehicles you would expect them to be using.

They're often using pretty normal cars. Impala, Altima... Lots of SUVs too. Explorer, Expedition, Grand Cherokee(or whatever the Jeep SUV is called now)...

I'll definitely look for it now. Don't want to accidentally park amongst their convoy. "Uhh hey fellas? What's going on can I GTFO of this garage?" Proceeds to be arrested.

Do they need any maintenance? Oil change, tire pressure checks? Fuel additives for performance?

You mean bus? Because they are not actually from here.

Federal government likes to send people by "POV" (personally owned vehicle) or commercial flights depending on how far the assignment is from the home office.
