    If you use a high grade marine sealant, the bond/'waterproofness' will last longer than the truck.... Don't be afraid to drill, just be aware that it's a double walled roof... long bolts are your friend..

    What have you done to your CUCV today/lately - Part 2

    I already have .mil style tail lights (not chebby style) on my M1031...Debating on if I should get HMMWV buckets and flush mount them...I'd love the look but not sure about the lost cargo space.

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    I'm more intimately familiar with both MCPD and PGPD than I'm willing to publicly admit, hahahah.....AND MCDFRS for that matter.... Let's just say front seat experience, not back seat.....Most officers are good, but it seems that the higher the population density the higher likelihood of running...

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    Yup. I got extensive family in Crisfield/Ewell... COMPLETELY different attitudes than monkey county (Montgomery County) or PG county.. :D Frederick county, PG, Montgomery, most of Howard, and now even half of Charles are pretty much DC-lite... Sad really... Like I said, LE out here are mostly...

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    Still not PC.... There needs to be an articulated reason as to why he thinks it's stolen, Ie a report from a local base saying one was stolen... Civvys drive .mil vehicles all the time.....

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    'I'd give you a ticket anyway'... You wanna play the 'you might beat the rap, but not the ride' game? LOL... ....and you're the problem..... He did nothing illegal, yet you'd cite him and drag him to court despite a lack of infraction having occurred... Do you realize that a statement like...

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    LOL. One of the reasons I moved away from Marylindistan AKA People's Republik of Maryland... I've had 2 traffic stops that lasted about 30 seconds... not even kidding.... didn't even need to produce DL/REG/INS.. they've already run that...they know what's up...One I was speeding because I...

    Traffic Stop/I was speeding

    That's not PC...Now, if they got a report from a local barracks that it was stolen, that's enough for a terry stop... But you cannot stop someone based on the car they're driving... I got pulled over for 'driving a crown vic when you're not a cop', and got issued a bunch of BS tickets as a...

    Of the 3 belts I bought from Oreilly's... They managed to sell me ONE that was the right one...One was the wrong #, which I caught immediately....The other was incorrectly identified as a comparable belt, and it wasn't....Wasted 4 hours trying to get on a belt that was 1" too short to fit...
