Definitely a good looking ride! When do the front windows get tinted?

As soon as I receive the title from the dealer ... same day I get it inspected and tinted right afterwards, should be about 2/3 weeks.

Unfortunately I won't be able to do the front to match the rear just yet, cause I think the back windows are 20% from factory. I'm going to have to do 28% on the front windows which as I understand it is Florida law. Since we'll be moving there soon I'm going to have to get the truck inspected/registered there, so I don't want to be in violation when I do. If I get lazy I might just wait till after I get inspected in Fl so that I only do it once.

Indeed, and listen, I can't stress this enough ... no matter what anyone says, our Florida home will have no pool. I repeat NO POOL anywhere near my house.

See you at Robbie's.

don't be surprised if you see me in a lawn chair on your porch some morning sipping on Orange juice and reading the paper. I'm just on vacation and I'll move along at some point

Saw this on the internets.........

crazy color.

 

[07Burb]

Kinda like that color. I wonder what they call that.

 

[DVS]

Are those platinum edition wheels chrome or satin silver?

 

[soulsea]

The Premium wheels are a silver/polished version of the Platinum chrome wheels.

Florida doesn't do inspections. Front window is 28% IIRC, second row is 18%, and back can be blacked out if you want.

But, tint is hardly, and rarely, enforced in Florida. Been 5% and 35% on the windshield for near 18yrs...

And Florida will demand darker tint, otherwise watch that dash and leather burrrrrnnnnnn

 

[soulsea]

Actually the guy who bought the WDT Escalade likes both types, so I had the choice of swapping the Platinum wheels over or keeping the Premium wheels on the new truck ... I decided to keep the Premium wheels.

I thought you did have to get inspected once when you first register the vehicle (if it's not new) no?

Well it turns out I do need to get an inspection in my case, but all they do is look at the VIN: http://www.ehow.com/list_7250236_florida-auto-inspection-requirements.html

What is this nonsense?

 

[THE YETI]

that's for insurance purposes Serge, not safety inspections given by the state to make sure your vehicle is road worthy.

Yes, they will ask to see the vehicle (your insurance company) to make sure the vehicle is actually there and drivable.

 

[soulsea]

So what our back passenger windows tinted from factory?

 

[THE YETI]

Not too sure.

We just do 5% over it all.

 

[B12]

In fl the tint law is 35% in the front and 15% on the rest. My truck was registered with tint and they didn't say anything.

Incorrect. 28% on front windows and 15% on rear.
