    Better than the HMMWV, then. I've got long legs, the only passably "comfortable" seat for me was the driver seat any which way, but on the whole I needed like... 4-6 more inches in any seat for it to be workable.

    Yup. That’d be them. You ever take a load Up to them again, hit me up beforehand I’ll get you fixed up with some good eats nearby.

    We just put low beams from JW Speaker on all 3 of the trucks still running 4x6 lights. The guys love them. They have a proper projector lense with the right cutoff so you don't blind everybody. Only did low beams for now and they said the new lights are so bright they can't even tell when the high beams are on. High beams are available as well. Heated lenses so they don't ice over in winter.

    I think the local Pete dealer charged around $150 per light.

    They throw right just as well as the projectors on our 389s.

    Good deal.... I get myself up there during the night. With my truck I use every open spot of their parking lot to get pulled in and turned around. I would never be able to get it with their cars parked also. Lol.

    Lol
    The pic of my driver there: the cars just all left, it was light rain n healthy fog and the dumpster was on the corner (FYI dumpster goes out Tuesday nite for Wednesday am n makes it a ########## to spin around). He got out and looked 3 times. I’ll give him credit for that- I rather he be cautious than careless.

    When I first started pulling out of there: I’d back in off the street. Anymore I tend not to be there during business hours so it don’t matter.

    The lights from JW Speaker rock!! But they do cost some serious coin.

    I thought about backing in off the street but I thought better of it. I was setting my breaks and getting out to look more then I was moving. But all worked out and life went on. First time I was there I thought people were living in the house on the hill and I thought I was giving them something t watch.

    I looked at these and found some for $240-250ish each off amazon for the 8800 evolution 2. That’s pretty expensive just for low beams.
