I work at a diesel repair shop. Like 3 years ago, we had a car hauler come in loaded down with Hyundai sonatas that were fully outfitted as undercover cop cars. I believe they were headed to Georgia, but expect them anywhere.

If the building was constructed prior to 1922, look it up on Chronicling America. The database has the T-D and the Planet (https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/#tab=tab_advanced_search).

The Library of Virginia put together Virginia Chronicle (https://virginiachronicle.com/), which includes the News Leader (through 1925) and the Evening Journal (through 1920) among many other papers.

Some of these F150s are from the Fire Marshall’s Office too. There’s Navy, Gold, White, and Black in their fleet. They run red & blue. HPD actually has very few unmarked rides, but they do exist!

I tinker a lot with my 3D printer and have found myself needing, uh, replacements for circuitry, wires, and components I keep messing up in the process. (PSA: if/when you only have one 3D printer, please learn from my mistakes by not customizing the only printer you have that you'll likely need to print and/or buy replacement parts for 😆)

I've used Digi-Key several times and they've been pretty reliable and affordable!

You’re seriously saying that Chester is turning into NoVa? Western Chesterfield, I get. But Chester? I’ll agree that Chester has more traffic and development than it did when we moved here 24 years ago, but it’s nowhere close to NoVa, or even Short Pump.
