    You are very welcome!
    Being CO registered they should leave you alone.
    After that the local PD will probably have no idea what to do and just watch you go by.
    Window tint will probably be the worst you get.
    Inspection during warm weather is good. Windows down:cool:

    My truck passed with no front or rear flaps this spring. They did ask me if I had a cover for my light bars, and I replied, of course I do....just not with me.





    I dont own covers.

    Welcome to Vermont. I do alot of wheeling my way, and it gets NASTY. Jeep swallowing mud. I prefer technical rocky trails myself...

    yea I've never been a huge mud fan. especially after being spoiled out here wheeling Colorado and Utah

    I'll need to do some seam sealing on my firewall and frame protection when I get there prepping for more water, mud and the winter.

    that's crazy. sucks they're coming down on the shop. vehicle owners need to take responsibility for their own vehicles, but at 82 yrs old, car maintenance is probably past their capable duties...

    wonder if they'll be able to prove negligence or if he did due diligence in the inspection?

    Not sure either but shops are going to react or overreact.
    If they go by the state page it would be a long inspection. And rust is a problem here.
    I'm due in the tenth month so I'll know first hand.
    The car owner and mechanic must have done business before and money may have been a factor.
    Who knows but they will probably use this guy as an example!

    You'll be fine. You're rigs are clean. There are a lot of trucks bigger than yours rolling around vermont, and some of them look pretty sketchy. Find a shop in the sticks that does inspection and no worries.

    When you guys are going to be cruising north western nh and central/northern maine let some of us mainers know. I've been doing some more sketchy exploring around now that i have sliders and could use some wheeling buddies. Built newer toyotas are a little rare around here.

    Just about every trapper or bear baiter seems to run and old precoma though. They arent into playing though. Just work.

    That's funny, don't belive I've been there ever? Can't wait to hook up! Your rigs look freaking awesome! Don't think truck or driver is up to wheeling with you on my end. Hope your not disappointed here. Not a lot of places to wheel that I've seen without travel.
