    WW, I am envious. The Ford Crown Vic Interceptor is my NEXT aquisiton. Gotta wait a while cause the wife is all over me about this last purchase. She does LIKE the truck. Just said 'No more out of state vehicles' to which I agreed. Fortunately, there's a lot that sells CVI's exclusively thats...

    SS, Actually, I talked to two State Trooper offices. They could offer no help, as they said they understood WHY I was having problems, but ONLY the DMV issues the permits. Like me, they didn't want to tangle with the DMV personnel either. So I just gave up and took the trip. And jeez, I feel...

    BobM, Thx. It IS a nice truck. My wife even likes it. She disliked the deuce, so I sold it (not the ONLY reason mind you). And I was not trying to cause any one any problems. As was said, I just couldn't afford $4000 (lowest bid I got) to have it transported. Most shippers balked BECAUSE of...

    Joe, THX. You are correct. I ROLLED THE DICE. I DID GET LUCKY. Thank you GOD for letting me get home safely with no incidents to mar the 'adventure'. But IF I had been stopped, I would have been all humble and apologetic and I would have PAID what ever ticket they would have given me. I...

    I was wearing a T shirt and shorts. Remember, this truck has no A/C and no radio. So, T shirt with both windows down, rolling down the highway at 60 mph. OK, I basically got really short hair and a short goatee. Both mainly gray. So no, I wasn't impersonating anyone. I was trying to get my...

    I basically concur that if someone is BREAKING THE LAW (impersonating military personnel), THEY SHOULD GO TO JAIL. FOR A LONG TIME. But you are of the mind of throwing the baby out with the bath water. What you are basically saying is ALL of us should be impacted by the bad judgement of even...

    emmado22, A big roger on the insurance. I won't drive with out it. You can get paper plates in Colorado if you can show a bill of sale, which I have AND either have a title or (in this case) an SF97 that my state recognizes. But not until the truck is here in Colorado. So, yes to the...

    I finally got my M1028a3 home. It was a four day drive. The first day was short. The next three were long. From Sctanton, PA to Denver, CO. But I made it home with nothing the worse for wear. I WILL post a full account later. And here's four pix.
