    High Beam as Low beam....Legal?

    Just because its in the hand book doesnt mean it would hold up in court... The Iowa 321.415 code (traffic law) states that a driver MUST dim their high beam lights when with in 1000' of a vehicle when approaching or 400' from the rear at all times. It would all have to do with the aiming...

    A word to the wise

    just because you are passing someone, doesnt make it lawful to speed. These fines are just about in line with the fines here in Iowa...I write a few big ones every now and then...no insurance 556.25$(321.20B) cause an accident with no insurance 1072.50$(321.20B), speeding in a work zone...

    New Toy DPMS Panther 308

    I am very well aware of this...but I value my person and the people around me...just like a HOT round with a handgun, a 5.56 NATO going through a .233 stamped rifle can explode the unit. Considering the firing positions...I wouldnt want this event to happen. Remember 1 time is 1 too many...to me...

    New Toy DPMS Panther 308

    dont get these confused... a 5.56 NATO will shoot a .233 but a .223 stamped rifle will not shoot a 5.56 NATO... a 7.62 NATO will shoot a .308 but a .308 will not shoot a 7.62 NATO All NATO rounds are a higher pressure and a tad bigger than the rounds they are commonly compared with...

    Taurus - The Judge Pistol

    Love the Judge Public Defender (bobbed hammer), one of the best toys in the safe. I regretted it at first but after shooting it and playing with different loads I love it. My wife even feels comfortable with it and carries it when she feels the need. My dad keeps his in the windshield bag on his...

    BlackBerry

    the BB Storm l and Storm ll both suck. Ive been through multiples of each. The phones keep freezing, wont stay connected to my gmail and work emails, but stays connected to a 3rd account. If I put it on vibrate only, it rings when it wants to. The storm ll has a problem with deleting...

    I'll get the pics when I pick it up here in the next few weeks...need some nicer weather. I dont think Suzuki has ever released the production numbers for any bikes...all numbers are speculation from what I was told. :beerchug:

    Collectability of stock Gen. 1 Busas...

    +1 A while back I asked the same question to a guy my father introduced me to. The guy collects ANYTHING...he has memrobilia from things I would never think of being collectible to a 64.5 mustang with 24XX miles worth a qtr mil on a bad day. The reason why I asked the question is the HD...
