umm lets see:

loud exust - got pulled over my an unmakred in anoka, was at the stop light at thurston and hwy10 going home, got pulled over just after the light turned gree, granted i did take off a little fast but was within the speed limit. Realized I was not a punk, just some married fool with a car seat in the back, so he let me go.

again pulled over for loud exaust by a ramsey cop one night on teh way to softball.

pulled over by state trooper for no front license plate, that is now on there.

pulled over again by a ramsey cop, this time on the way home from softball (even after i had a few beers) she pulled me over becuase the front and rear ford emblems light up blue, also she noticed the ricer light up windsheild washer thingys, she told me to rig up a switch on them so they can be turned off while driving, gave me a warning, luckily she didn't smell the beer on me

but granted i only had 2 beers in 3 hours.

and finally got pulled over on the way home from work, wasn't speeding, wasn't acessivly driving or anything, he said he pulled me over for speeding, but that was BS, on 94 going north just out side of the tunnel I was going 55 - 60 but granted the spped limit is 50, but anyways everyone else does 70 - 75 and yet I get pulled over, gives me the BS shit, checks my car out for illegal shit, goes and checks my record, its clean, and lets me go.

so lately i've not had fun getting pulled over.

Huh, last night I got pulled for window tint. Even tho he initially pulled me for speeding. The cop was cool about it. He did'nt say a word about my exhaust, and at the speed I was going, the thing was screamin on the on ramp. Kinda funny, he pulled up behind me on the on ramp, tail gated me, so I stepped on it, he could'nt keep up thru the corners. So he gets up to the car, and instead of giving the ticket for the speed, he gave one for my tint. Which turns out alot darker then I really thought it was. Tint tested at 15%. State legal is 50%. LOL

mine me asking how much usually the ticket cost for the tint?

Yeah I got pulled over for tint in Duluth, I kind of don't want to deal with cops at Uni.

Damn divx man, I think you need a differant car that doesn't attract attention lol...Your exhaust isn't louder then what mine was, and I used to rail it when I went by cops

Time to get an old person car. Cops don't even look at the wagon

I'm gonna say, still plan on meeting at Mall of America. For like a photoshoot/chat. If someone else has any ideas after wards, throw them out there.

But I'm planning the meet at Mall of America, starting at 3pm since noone wants to make up their mind.

Teh tint ticket, I have no idea how much it costs. I have to call and find out. Since everyone bitches about the tint, I'm probably gonna take the front tint our and put in 35% or something lighter. But I want to keep the dark tint in the back. If I ever get stopped again for it, I'll just tell the officer, that the previous ticket was for the front windows, and the cop said the rear windows were fine.

The 2 front windows and the hatch one are what they get excited about. I was going to paint my side windows and do 35% on the remaining windows. Now that I got a van, I can go as dark as I want on all the back ones
