    New Badges for Military Service Members, LEO, FireFighters and EMT

    That was part of what I did. Most of the unit was older and I was in my late 20's when I was sworn in. As such, I was closer to the action.

    New Badges for Military Service Members, LEO, FireFighters and EMT

    Hmmmmm........I'm sort of on the fringe. I was a volunteer police officer for 10 years. It was a left over from WW2. Today it would come under Homeland Security. At the time, it was the Defense Civil Preparedness Agency. Basically air raid wardens. We worked disasters and as a back up to regular...

    Dash camera review

    This is a review of the Vantrue N4 Pro S dash camera along with various accessories. This does come in a bundle but the testing will be done on several different vehicles so certain options are used to facilitate that. To make the review as inclusive as possible, testing will be done on a late...

    New toy

    It's a sort of a mini camper shell. It's painted to match the truck. There is a sliding rear window on the cab and another one on the shell. I think it is meant to be a sleeping area but the sliding rear window is too small to climb through. More than likely it was just an extra storage area...

    New toy

    It's a 460. They even came with the 300 6 back then but this was bought as a conversion. I definitely did NOT want a diesel. It doesn't have any rust I can find. It's not very nimble though. I drove semi's that had a better turning radius.

    New toy

    Got the Furd home today. Title for title and it's sitting in my driveway. The other guy was salivating over a truck I was ready to take a hammering on just to get rid of it. He even handled the transport. It looks better in the picture than in person but it does have an aura about it. I knew...

    Thinking of Buying a 00-06 NBS Tahoe/Suburban? Look Here

    Yeah. I always felt it was unprofessional to use police powers for personal use. I turned my badge in at the end of 1993, but I still know a few serving officers. The fellow I talked to works mostly in auto theft anyway. I just found out this morning the kids husband may be separating from the...

    Thinking of Buying a 00-06 NBS Tahoe/Suburban? Look Here

    I did a naughty thing. I got a picture and the plate was blurred, but I cleaned it up and ran the plate through a friend who stayed in police work when I left it. It's not really professional, but I'm glad I did. It's been totaled, rebuilt, totaled again, currently has a branded title and has...

    Thinking of Buying a 00-06 NBS Tahoe/Suburban? Look Here

    What am I looking at. I've got a mid sized motorcycle I can't ride anymore. Failed knees, balance issues from age and such mean I can't even get on it. I have a guy interested in trading his 2004 Tahoe title for title for it. The Tahoe is an Ohio truck but is supposed to have some body rust (In...

    2026 Dash cam!

    It will constantly over write old files that are NOT protected. If you have an event that trips the G meter, it will save that video. I drove up through Ohio once and the interstate was so rough it kept tripping my camera. It will also save video that you manually record. Anything else get over...

    6.2 recall question?

    I just read an article that even after recall upgrades, some engines are still failing.

    A walk around of the bike. Warning, it's as hard to watch me trying to get my knee over it as it is to do.
