    Yeah; Not easy being a cop nowadays!

    Does your truck have the big numbers on the speedometer in kilometers?

    No, but l loved the job. Very satisfying being there for people when they need help somehow. Plus, I always believed that the best tool l had was the ability to talk with people and to act like a human being. It doesn't always work. But its the first tool l would use and the one l would use all the time.
    So many people would be angry as hell at the mere sight of me when I first got there. But the vast majority would shake my hand when l left, and we'd be on a first name basis.


    The speedometer in my Tacoma has metric as the primary numbers, and U.S. in smaller numbers.

    Just like back home in Canada; Do vehicles get titles in Costa Rica like they do in the US and Canada, or is there another way of proving ownership?

    Yes. They issue you a vehicle permit just like they do in Canada and the U.S.

    At least it’s got the speedo in miles and kilometers...

    There’s a guy in my area who’s got a JDM ‘91 Land Cruiser; It was made emissions-legal but the speedo is only in kilometers...

    Nice vehicle!!
    It's easy to do the kmh to mph conversion in your head. Canada switched over to metric when l was a kid. I learned lmperial, then had to learn metric.

    1993-1997 better because they have the triple-locking differential...

    It would be sweet to restomod it, but still make it appear 100% stock...
