    During the day, the BD chase bar is literally invisible. You cant see it at all.

    At night, it does alright, but I wish there was a high/low mode for different lighting conditions.

    +1 on LED whips though.

    We could all get lighted whips and give ourselves pirate names. This is something we could all get behind.

    Yeah, between that and the switchpro that can turn flash and strobe on all my lights, I can get some serious DOT truck vibes going on.

    I dunno, strobing red is probably a big no-no, even if it's rear-facing. I'm certainly not going to risk using it on a public road.

    The SwitchPro 9100 has all kinds of crazy strobe patterns. Of course, I sold mine and got an sPod. It only (barely) does one pattern.

    I can confirm aux lights that get the PoPo attention to pull you over for impersonation is not a good idea.

    Gorilla whips are pretty affordable and has like 20 patterns and 10 colors. It's pretty insane. Thats what I rock on my truck.

    No, I have an S2 sport shooting over to the lady's truck. But that whip is seriously bright, esp on a dark night. You can see how bright the foreground in front of my truck is.

    Oh yeah, I decided to 86 the plans for the fancy bed system that ties into the frame and has sliders and whatnot. These bars were the simple part and it was still hard to find time for it with bebe. Maybe one day, but by then I'll probably be back to ground tent and softopper.
