    I saw the same group on the 14S leaving Drinkwater flats...looked like they were coming from Rowher, they were behind me from Sierra Hwy to the 14. Several T4Rs and Tundras too, all pretty well built

    You actually aren't allowed to tint your windows at all in CA, can only have them tinted if they came that way from the factory. I learned this the hard way with my previous car. Got pulled over for a traffic violation and was cited for having tint on my passenger and drivers windows, even though it was minimal (could still see me through the window just fine). Had to remove it and bring the paperwork to the Pasadena court house to prove it was taken care of.

    I think there's an exception if you have a medical condition and can prove it with a doc note or something.

    btw @deadhed61 this photo convinced me I need an AAL for my new Dakars, just ordered a pair through HS. They've settled a bit since I installed them a few weeks ago and I don't like the leveled look, need my rake back lol.

    Hahah yup! I have gotten quite a few window tint tickets.. you need to find someone to sign them off for you! The doc note is something people do, but you can still cite them out for it.

    Nice! Yeah, I saw the both of you. I feel like I've seen that grey one before so I think he's on here. Like you said, there was a large amount of rigs cruising that stretch this weekend. There must have been some meetup out there this weekend or something. :notsure:

    It was at Rowher. I was leaving Drinkwater Flats which is just a few miles away from Rowher Flats...that caravan of T4Rs and Tundras mostly pulled up behind me coming from that way before we got on the freeway.
