    I like the way they look but I can't think of a reason why I need one.:notsure:

    Not sure I'd like the new blind spots, either.....
    Doesn't @Shellshock still have one he's been trying to get rid of?

    Yup sure do. 6 foot. Black. Window and solid panels.

    I didn’t usually have mine on full time, only when I needed it. Only takes a minute or two to install or remove it. I also had the solid panels so you only had the side mirrors. Never really had an issue with visibility. I did the FRAC mod so I could always use the camera if I really needed it.

    Don't need a login. Just click on the 'X' in the upper right corner and the login screen goes away.

    Didn't realize it looked that different on phone. On PC, it's the regular screen with a login block over the bulk of the image.

    Funny, when I click on the link on my phone, another window opens up in Firefox with the ad perfectly visible.

    I guess it wasn't meant to be.
    It's probably my browser.
    I have it blocking all kinds of 3rd party garbage. Ads, cookies, fingerprinting.....

    That could very well be. TBH, Facetoobz deserves to be blocked...along with quite a few others. Who needs more than TW anyway?

    I'm working.
    My 2nd pressman (early 20's) will never be the same again, since I informed him there wasn't always blue M&M's.

    I graduated in 1998.
    There was maybe 3 classrooms that had internet access.
    Only the rich kids had DSL at home.:D
    If you didn't have 2 phone lines you couldn't make or take phone calls while using internet.

    I graduated in '79. The school had one computer. Nobody was allowed to touch it.

    That's when I was born. :blahblah:

    Same thing applied for cell phones around '98. Very few, like nobody, had them.
    The ones who did used them for emergency only.
    There were probably more car phones.

    We called them bag phones. I got one when they first came out. I used mine a lot.
    You had to plug them into the car's cigarette lighter. That would be difficult these days.
