    I also see a Grand Wagoneer, a full-size Cherokee, a Jeepster Commando, a Chevy truck, and a Harley chopper (among other vehicles) in that photo...

    Did you take the picture of the wagon?

    Looks like possibly a White Malibu Wagon towards the left of the pic too.

    Big ass car with vast expanses of glass, and no rear A/C...

    Even with ceramic tinted windows and the A/C in 100% perfect working order, I feel like the backseat passengers (especially third row) would be a bit toasty!

    I would think if the paint color is light and the windows dark you would be ok.

    Be really nice to the cop and pull the “veteran on vacation” card if you get pulled over...

    My tint is illegal in New Jersey, but I don’t give a flying fuck because my truck is registered in PA.

    @El Duderino

    I’m going to be brutally honest; I really don’t give a shit if a cop can see inside my truck or not. I would honestly rather that nobody be able to see inside my truck, but if I tinted my windows too dark I wouldn’t be able to see outside at night.

    I do not own a gun (though do plan on buying one for home protection one day), and if I did carry a gun in my truck it would be very well concealed, so the presence of window tint would not matter. If a cop pulls somebody over for a violation other than the window tint, and then tickets them for the window tint as a secondary violation, I can understand that.

    Window tint laws are nothing more than revenue generation, and I believe I should be allowed to modify my truck as I see fit if the modification does not directly endanger the lives of other people.

    @El Duderino

    Another law I can’t understand is the seatbelt law. I always wear my seatbelt as a matter of common sense, and the only law I believe in when comes to seatbelts is that of Darwinism.

    I would feel totally unsafe driving without a seatbelt, but I don’t think police should be able to pull people over and investigate them purely because they are not wearing a seatbelt. It’s pure revenue generation!

    I’m a big fan of people not seeing in my truck. That’s why I have to heat shield sun shades for my side front windows. With my tint you can’t see in the back.

    What do you think of seatbelt laws? Like I said, I always wear my seatbelt but I think it’s bullshit that cops can arbitrarily harass people for not wearing their seatbelts when they are not otherwise breaking the law!
