    Seems like every Wrangler I've seen lately are running some sort of aftermarket headlight of some sort. One guy who lives near me constantly runs a light bar, I assume because his headlights don't throw light worth a dang.

    Because you absolutely have to do something to break up that new front grille/light look.

    Lol just noticed the gun. He’d be freaking livid. So many safe act violations. Hopefully they only had 7 rounds on the belt feed....

    No pistol grip no detachable mag no flash suppressor. Probably semi. It MIGHT be ok.

    I have heard of out of state people going to Jail in NYC for having loose ammo in their pocket, not even a gun to use them in. I’d still love to see the Mayor or Governor’s face if they saw it.

    I’ve heard about NYC. I don’t go there, cept once when I accidentally drove through Times Square in my LT 01 tacoma after I followed the gps directions back from JFK after dropping a euro girl off. You’re not allowed to have anything in NYC. No guns or knives you’re not even allowed to roll up newspapers. That’s why it’s so safe now. Nothing bad happens there.

    Can you still buy a hot dog, or will eating one kill you too?

    Crime dropped but isn’t dead. Probably more white collar crime. You know, some financial advisor stealing some poor bastards entire life savings. But those aren’t “violent” crimes. When the guy finds out and is going through a mental break down and a life crisis and takes his firearm and threats to kill the bastard that destroyed his entire life; that’s the violent crime.

    I see more and more of this, from cheap ones that do nothing, all the way to bars that are blinding during daylight. All the jackasses doing this, may very well be the reason , if or when LE starts pulling over and writing tickets for not having a cover over additional/off-road lights.
    As for the color changing LEDs, they don't bother me, I think they look silly, but I'm not blinded or bothered by them.

    I actually saw this a few times recently, I personally don't like the look but hey it's their vehicle. This is for sure illegal in NJ.

    Exactly my thought I got off the freeway last night and saw a Wrangler with purple ones. Nothing else emitting light from the front.

    Wranglers have become what Honda Civics of the 90s with the loud mufflers, tall spoilers and lights underneath were. I've seen some Tacoma's going that route as well, but they don't seem to be as common in my area fortunately.
