    I am sorry for not elaborating.

    If he has a bearcat scanner or similar in that big truck it needs to come out of there depending on where you are. It's unfortunate because I use the thing to listen to memphis center and the Union Pacific among other things.

    I don't have a scanner in my truck. I would like to have one but most police are digital now and those are expensive. Not worth the trouble, just like radar detectors. Some places they are legal and some they are illegal.
     
    G13Tomcat and x1Heavy Thank this.

    Sorry I haven't posted an update in a while. Been pretty busy and just didn't think about it. I have been running pretty good with J&R Schugel so far. I haven't been getting great miles but good enough. The one thing I can say fpr sure now is I hate automatic trucks. This thing can't shift properly on mountains, and it can't keep a stead speed on cruise control. Half the time after coming up a little grade and it slowing down to lets say 60 or so, it won't even try to speed back up to the set speed of 65. I have to tap the fuel peddle to get it to go. I don't care how its set up I don't like autos. Give me a 13 or 18, the rest is junk.
    My wife started school a couple weeks ago. So far she is doing good, she is second on the class. The first couple days where a little overwhelming for her with all the info the bombard you with but she is doung good now.
     
    Vic Firth, G13Tomcat and x1Heavy Thank this.
