So I took my car out to play around in a parking lot to see how it handles in this terrible weather. ESC ruins the fun in the snow. I can not spin the car even with the E-brake. Turn the ESC off and boy is it sure fun.

The below is going to get really annoying have to clean off the rear license plate after every stop. That much snow on the back of the car must break some sort of law of physics.



P.S. - Police officers do not like people driving around in empty lots in the snow.

I was just testing out the traction control and seeing what the car does in a hard corner. I stopped when the cop pulled in and told him it's a new car and I'm just seeing what it does on the snow. He just said it was a public lot and to move on.

bah! iowa cops don't like my tint either! about ten min after i started my 4 hour trip back home i got pulled over by an undercover charger that spotted me from the other side of the highway and did like 120 to catch me. i tried to get a pic but it didn't turn out that well outta my passenger side mirror. i asked him about the car if it was the 4wd r/t when he handed me my third tint ticket and he said he just got the car and didn't know much about it but liked it so far

thanks for the drinks last night hoffa. how'd your bowling night end up?

Ask your eye doctor for a prescription if he's cool.

both my parents manage different optical clinics and i've asked all their doctors to and they won't do it for me... already tried, it'd be a hell of a lot cheaper than buyin the new glass with the tint already in there to make it legal

yep. i have 18% and it's 100% legal if the tint is between the sheets of glass and the etching in the glass says that's what the transparency is. so if i buy all new glass i could keep my tint and not worry about tickets so i might take my tint off and just save for a while and buy new glass. only other way around it is like cuda said and have a signed form from an eye doctor sayin you need to have it. those are the only ways around the tint policy.

i've read the state law so many times about the tint lookin for other ways but that's it so i guess if i can win by buyin new glass then i'll have to make that my next purchase for the car

50% all around except there can't be a single thing on the front including the strip across the top. no faded tint that goes from dark to light on the same window and no colored tint
