    Some people like stock Ford Escorts, some people like watches. Just cause I don't want to drive the most boring colored old man car, doesn't mean I think its dumb that you do. I'd rather have a nice watch. My grandfather was a clock maker, straight outta Germany. It's in my blood to like clocks/watches. :D

    Installed this on a friend's truck. Make sure you scrape the paint off the plate, the threads on the bolt, and the threaded hole in the hood so that you get a good ground plane. We still have to redo his as his reception is limited.

    I like the drivers side plate. I thought the antenna would be an annoyance but I barely notice it.

    Vehicle never wins. Working in the railroad industry, I see this too much unfortunately.

    Here's some info:
    At 70 MPH the train is traveling 102 FPS
    An average freight train weighs 10,000-15,000 tons
    Do the math ( 20,000,000 * 70 = 1,400,000,000 tons of force
    Please don't try to beat the train guys. Please.

    I'm going to laugh if an annex shows up and not a tent. Does the shipping info give the weight of the package?

    :eek: :pray: Never a good thing
    We have a very busy train line that passes through town....maybe 12 to 15 a day come through. We've only had one serious incident that I can remember - a pedestrian was hit/killed. Actually you can see the wreck for yourself - go to google earth and find belgrade MT then find the intersection of Jackrabbit and Main. The images were taken (I'm sure) as part of hte accident investigation but ended up on GE somehow.

    Yeah. Google Earth doesn't show it. If you click to see it on google maps, it shows it in the old google maps form. The new Google Maps and new Google Earth both don't show it.

    No mud flaps, plasti dipped emblems, and rear bumper, Weather tech digital fit, Bed mat from tractor supply. Pioneer 4400BH head unit. B.A.M.F bed rail tie downs. AVS vent visors.
    better hope someone dose not steal it or mess with it... or try and pack drugs in it... or maybe stolen guns. it’s in memfrica after all. pretty much the shitiest city in all of TN!
    I’d be more worried about someone stealing it, messing with it or hiding drugs in the package. there is drug deal all day ever day in memphis or memfrica as most in TN call it. also shootings just about every singe day, even in the “best parts” of the city.
