Looks good but shouldn't it have more ID surface area at the X? Looks kinda restrictive...

The guy in the Prius behind me today must not of had a good Christmas. He almost rear ended me, side swiped me and got out at a stop sign and told me I was driving like an idiot. :?

I had the cruise set at 55 in a 55 zone and this guy was right on me the whole time riding half in the middle lane. I mean all I could see was the roof on the Prius that's how close he was. Then where it turns into 2 lane the right lane's closed so I put my turnsignal on to move over to the left when little Prius boy decides he can get there before me almost rear ending me. Then he goes on to pass me, lanes closing in a 1/4 mile and getting narrower, and almost takes out my passenger side. So he gets infront of me and slams on his brakes and now we're doing 20mph in a 55mph zone. Giving me the finger the whole time pointing at certain parts of the male body And when we stop he tells me I was driving like an idiot???

He was from Ohio maybe that's why.

Have had a great time with the kids. Woke up this morning with 15 deer in the front yard. Three of them were bucks. My grandson videoed them with his new camera.

Goint to hit the road around noon and head for Burleson. Will be nice to get back home for a day. Got the truck scheduled for service tomorrow, then back to Brownsboro.

Tell me about it Matt, my Dad and I were driving on 51 in Pa. and this black Dodge Ram was behind us. First he was driving normal with the occasional on your butt move. Then soon as we hit a double yellow he passes us and blows all kind of rock salt and rocks on the car. I wanted to kill this guy. So we get to a red light after awhile and that same truck is at a gas station with the driver not in sight. Maybe he had to take a huge dump or somthing. I effin hate people. Way to many people out there who are selfish today.

It's almost a 3" oval shape at the X. If that's not enough, I can make a new one. I only have $12 in it. I've looked at the ones you can buy for $50+ and it looks just like them.

Here is what I have been playing with this weekend.

Here is a video of my big light bar.


I am making a 36in Code 3 MX7000 light bar to go with my two others the 48in Code 3 MX7000 and my Whelen 12 strobe mini bar.
