I have sidewalks on both sides of the street in my neighborhood. For some reason, my neighbors choose not to use them. I have a '99 Police Interceptor with the 100 watt driver's side spotlight. I keep it aimed on center of the road so I can flip it on when I turn onto dark roads. It works much...
Scott - Add a flag mount to the passenger side. Then you can fly the POW/MIA flag on the driver's side and the Stars and Stripes on the passenger side! :-)

Jeepsinker - Thanks for starting this thread. Safety should always be our #1 priority. Our vehicles are designed to disappear in the dark. Sitting on the side of the road with no reflectors or safety gear in a truck painted in woodland camo is a recipe for disaster.
Over the past couple of...
The engine weighs about 900 lbs. I suggest pulling the front clip off the truck and using an engine hoist to install it correctly and safely. There's no sense in risking severe injury or ruining the truck. If it were me, I'd be leery about buying a truck without an engine when there are plenty...
With Rayzer's help and the help of the CUCV diodes and relays sticky, I repaired my factory horn and horn button and hooked up 116 Db stainless marine horns. :-) Anyone that decides to cut me off in traffic will get a very rude awakening!!

In October I was run off the road while heading south on the FL Turnpike, my 18' flat bed...
I think I'd rather live in a yellow submarine than be tortured by dancing bananas! :cookoo:
