I had mine powder coated at Premium Powder Coating in Longmont, but just about any place should be able to do it. Just ask to look at some silver color swatches and hold them up to your truck in sunlight/shade to find the best match. Make sure you do at least one clear coat. I think on mine I had them blast it down to bare metal, then one color coat and two coats of clear.

FWIW ARB's powder coat is thick. Blasting that off will cost extra. Andy you might just rock black on it.

Anyone have a personal umbrella insurance policy? Pro's, cons? Worthless or not?

I went in to verify insurance stuff and they were pitching it. Havent had time to think about it much. $1mil for $15/mo or so. I was confirming that they'd cover everything on the truck if it happened to roll off a cliff, which they said they would with receipts, just minus depreciation.

I have a 1 million dollar umbrella policy. I think it cost $180/year, which, like the others have mentioned seems pretty cheap for the extra coverage and piece of mind.

Did you end up having to get a fit kit or whatever it's called? Or was it literally just missing the mounting hardware?

well put. I'm streaming that right now. It's interesting. To leave as much out of it as possible, lets just say I can definitely see the youth of tomorrow asking an old man Ryan "wtf was happening back then"

Best way to not get it locked right?

But I agree, history classes will be like 2016-2020 we'll just skip those years. Oh next class we'll talk about 2021

I'm neither, but I play one on the internet.

The actual CO law doesn't say anything about entering the intersection etc. (nor does the driver handbook). It's just interpreted to mean that, because the way it's written yellow is a 'warning of state change' not an actual 'state'.

42-4-604 (1)(b)(I) Vehicular traffic facing a steady circular yellow or yellow arrow signal is thereby warned that the related green movement is being terminated or that a red indication will be exhibited immediately thereafter.

As for the points and insurance, generally no, but apparently with exceptions. You were in Denver at the time, and they say no to both (photo speed violations are zero point): https://www.denvergov.org/content/d...raffic-enforcement/photo-radar-red-light.html
However Fort Collins' page says mostly the same thing... except if you're doing 25mph over the limit in which case it's a 6 point ticket, which they say is based on state law: http://www.fcgov.com/municipalcourt/camera.php

And if you want to read the details of the actual law for cameras, it's 42-4-110.5. Automated vehicle identification systems. Section 1.5 covers the whole 25mph thing, basically saying that this title doesn't apply to any offenses traveling more than that unless it meets specific criteria in 1.7. The more important part is 2b, which says the local municipality can't report you to the DMV (ie points) if it's issued by a camera.

Personal anecdote(s), I got flashed by the one on Monarch Pass a few years ago, and boy was I pissed because it was (is?) set up/located like a speed trap. I did some research into them at the time, and while I can't find the source now I recall seeing that the first offence was automatically forgiven. I never got mailed anything anyway. But I think that was more for that specific location or jurisdiction, and I don't think it necessarily applies to all municipalities. My roommate has been tagged a couple of times. She didn't pay the one from Boulder, but did pay the local one.

You'd have to decide if it's worth fighting or not. Yellow lights get thrown out all the time apparently. In fact there's a lot about how the timing of the camera and light cycle works and can increase accidents rather than reduce them depending on where the clear line is (ie your vehicle must be completely past that point before the light goes red, and it's usually farther in than the white line you can see). But you have to weigh the potential added costs, your time, how likely you might be to lose, and your principles.
