Also filling up with gas one time in our little town, cop walks up to me and asks me where he should get his done and how dark to go. i told him what i thought, limo all the way with 50 on the windshield.
you wouldnt LET him search your truck...if a cop wants to search a vehicle..he WILL sooner or later.

tint looks good but id never have it that dark. damn sure not any on the front windshield

i have 5% all around the back 3 windows and 20 on the front two to keep it legal for now. when i replace my windshield thats getting done since its the only place that the sun gets in to heat up the truck.
you know the state law is about to go from 20% up to 25%?? what kinda BS is that!!!

Man, I've really been missing out.

Been driving for 30+ years with stock tint.

All this time I could have been lookin' cool and protecting my vehicle's interior from the oh so harsh rays of the sun. Could have even kept the interior a few degrees cooler, too.

Having those things is sooooo much more important than being able to drive safely and legally.

i keep a book of the bill of rights in my truck. i politely tried to read him #4. yes he could have got a search warrent. but me acting sketchy, and reaching the floor, uh uh. plus he followed me out of the hospital where my sister in law was having a baby, i had reason to be a little sketched out. i could have been an ***. he could have very easily givin me the seat belt ticket. but no, i cooperated 100% and he understood that. i was willing to pay the 75 bucks if needed.

Wow! That's great! It means so much coming from someone who has to say a prayer everytime they put their truck in reverse!
