    Love the new Lightforce's!!

    I think I'm getting some Dually D2's in the new truck.

    In your build thread, did I read correctly that you have some OK LED pods?

    Yup. Our primary northeast office is in freeport. We have a satellite office we share with one of our main northeast clients in Mass right on the Mass/ RI border. I usually work up here 3 days a week, and from home or the satellite office the rest of the week. Most of the time I'll leave Monday morning around 445 am, and return sometime Wednesday night.

    My wife's parents have a place in southern Maine I usually stay at except in the winter when its closed down. Then I usually crash with someone I work with up here.

    I would defiantly not be doing a 3 hour (1 way) commute 3 days a week

    Yep, johns old bumper. Thank you, im very happy with it.

    Yes i do but i haven't hooked them up yet. I picked them up the last group buy they did for a pretty good price, they are the 6 LED pods in flood. The original plan was to do cutouts in the rear bumper and put them there for reverse lights. Then i realized placement might be weird with the spare tire on the swingout, so i might just do one in the bumper off centered and give the other to cam since he is hooking me up. Buuttt they fit perfectly in the triangle cutouts in the front bumper so i might put them there. Only 18 watts a piece so i might even be able to use the stock fog wiring. The quality looks real good, just cant really tell you much about light output.

    Where in Freeport do you work? I'm assuming it's not the Muddy Rudder, with that kind of commuting ;)

    That light/bumper combo looks pretty badass.

    Oh, you must be up in the Stonewood business complex then?
    If you haven't already, you NEED to go to Buck's BBQ sometime.

    Thanks guys. I can't wait to get everything wired up. That was the plan but its hard to work with wires when your fingers are freezing. Mainly my one bad finger i broke years ago freaking throbs in the cold.

    Just started in Cambridge a little while ago, just a dusting so far but it's coming down pretty hard. Won't be long before we have some real accumulation.

    Damn! I was hoping you had spots. I'm looking at OK LED products as an alternative to Rigid's ridiculously priced duallys but I need output info on the spot pattern. I'm not adding a light bar to this one so I need some smaller pods that will fit on either side of the license plate.

    I've seen pods in that spot on fords, they look awesome. RI has those new hyperspot duallys :stirthepot: not that they will fit in that location on you truck but have you seen the visionx led cannons? :drool: 4.5" round single 25 watt LED, you can get 10 degree pattern, they claim that tey throw 1000'

    Not sure what complex it is, there used to be a physical therapist downstairs, now we have both floors. We are on the same side as muddy rudder, up the road a few miles, right across from the bike and ski shop

    Whoa... those things be pricey!!! :eek:

    I did see the hyperspots but I wasn't sure if they were any better than the dually D2's. I want a driving pattern but some dispersement isn't a terrible thing. Decisions, decisions.... I need to get a cap first anyways :eek:

    :thumbsup:

    Quiet you, your box of goodies is in my truck :cool:
