I took off the blue lights and installed yellow (forklift) strobes. 
They hash the CB but they're 100% legal in all states.


I picked maroon for the cellphone color for a reason :-)

That's for the millionaire question. I'd be satisfied at first if they
knew the difference between YIELD and STOP. Or for Basil72 when
the Right-On-Red turner is put in a dangerous position when a guy
changes lanes just as he arrives at an intersection.....

You missed the less-than-OJ-speed sprint across the Laramie valley at the
mog-in. 45 kph for 19 miles. Uphill, against the wind, at high altitude.

We actually weren't sure that the two bicyclists on 287 weren't going to
beat us there! (Bob's 2 trucks were vaporlocking with the "new, improved,
reformulated" Denver gasoline.)
