  1. if the weight is that big of an issue, leave a couple of rounds out and carry a spare magazine in your hip pocket... 

     

    I am also quickly learning that holster choice is huge when it comes to comfort of carry.  I'm really close to buying an alien gear cloak tuck 2 or 3.  Can't find a bad review of either.

     

    I carry my full sized Pro Series in the cloak 2. I can carry all day long without issue.

  2. Umm road to Hana? A death trap for riders but would be a fun death trap. Haleakala or whatever? Maui has some damn tasty roads you guys are cray

    I did the road to Hana two up on an Electra glide. The way to Hana was terrifying. Theway back we were rolling.

    it's unfortunate that I placed my go pro on the front fairing. I got alot of vibrating footage.

  3. Out of warranty and the dealer isn't figuring it out? A credible transmission shop would be my next visit to unfuck what they can't, right after I get my $835 back for the nonrepair job

     

    5 year /100,000 power train warranty expired in May this year.

    The first and only code the computer through out (sorry don't have it in front of me) was related to the pressure system. Apparently why they put in the solenoid pack. It just amazes me that even with that information, they haven't done anymore troubleshooting.

     

    Does that have a selectronic shifting? With mine I could drive it in manual fine as you're able to keep it below the rpm the limp cuts out at.

    It does. I used that for a while, it was the only way I actually felt comfortable driving. Just didn't have OD. Last time out it decided to kick into limp mode.

     

     

    Electrical short is my bet as well. That seems to be the common consensus online with limp mode. Maybe a bad speed sensor somewhere is causing the emergency braking issue.

     

    This is my 3rd Chrysler vehicle. This is the first one I've actually had a problem with.

  4. Cars are complicated these days, if the Dodge engineers/programmers didn't command it to throw a code or detail possible causes in the manual... what is anyone going to do?

     

    Piss and moan on the internet of course!

    Contacted Dodge Customer care this morning. Dodge Case Management is taking over. Hopefully we get somewhere now.

  5. Ive already thrown out the safety card. To be honest it really is. When Im clipping along at 60, then the truck decides to engine brake to 20 without warning. I consider that a safety issue.

    I havent really raised my voice too much in person. Its mostly been on the phone. I had to apologize for losing my cool to the service advisor over the telephone.

    However, when the service tech said on trip #3 that the computer wasnt storing limp mode, and that the transmission has never been in limp mode I lost control a bit.

  6. Lemon law doesn't apply unfortunately. Already looked into that.

    Called this afternoon for an update an got voicemail...

    Im hoping to speak with the service manager. After that convo, I'll go higher.

    Tossing money and parts seems like what they are going after. Ive already had that conversation with them.

  7. So long story short, my 2010 Ram keep kicking the transmission into limp mode. Its very random, and corrects itself when turning off the truck and turning bavk on. That part doesn't bother me as much as the sudden emergency braking at 60mph. Not sure if its the tranny or something else. Usually after a power brake out of the blue the transmission will go into limp mode.

    First trip to service, they flashed the pcm at no charge, didn't fix it. Next service trip cost me $835 for a transmission solenoid pack. Still didn't fix the trouble. They have now had my truck a 3rd time since Nov. 19.

    They have recreated the limp mode twice, but cant get the truxk to throw a code out.

    So last contact was Friday, when they told me they would have a tech drive it with the code reader to see what it was doing on the road. I asked for something to drive over the weekend to which I was told "we can get you your truck back." I told them I dont want it back until fixed.

    So collective brain trust, what do I do now? I still have 2 years left to pay. Its worth more than my loan payoff. I havent setup shop yet at the service department, but im starting to get a little salty. I feel that they are just icing me off until I go away.

  8. Dial up?

     

    60 GB game. Plus there was probably a DDoS attach on the MS servers at the same time. Or 6 million people trying to download as well.

    I only managed to play through the 1st campaign mission last night. It sure does look pretty. A lot of new weapons to pick up. I'm hearing the story line is terrible, which disappoints me greatly.

    Game devs apparently don't care to much anymore about the story telling, and more about the online experience.

     

    I've heard really good things about the multiplayer. Unfortunately I don't have internet at the new place yet to be able to try it out.

     

  9. Minivan brah?  Come on this thing is the tits, Amanda and I love them, just out of our price range.  But damn it's sexy, minivan's not so much lol  Keep it and sell the van ;)

     

    16 posts before someone ragged on Ben getting a van. I''m starting to lose faith in this community...:nono:

     

    Carie...badass biker to minivan mom. What have you done to that poor woman Ben? She's losing all of her street cred.

  10. Sort of true. It has to scan the plate to see if it's in the hot file. Whether it keeps the data, I don't know.

    There are unmanned plate scanners on freeway or choke point locations that record continuously. I suspect those keep data.

    I have seen unmarked scanner vehicles cruising through parking lots checking or recording all plates. Probably DHS.

    I have also seen a portable scanner setup after an fatal accident, to look for the guilty party passing by later.

    (It had an unmarked vehicle standing by to keep the gear from being stolen.)

    And there are radiation detectors up and down the I-95 corridor on the East Coast. Those use cameras also.

    Not even counting speed ticket cameras...

    Back in the 1990s, the FBI admitted access to an average 60 some cameras recording a typical commuter's drive into work in the morning. Banks, gas stations, parking lots, etc.

    It's a different world we live in... smile for the camera

    Let me clarify. Yes they scan alot. However, they do not run and or store information on every tag they scan.

    The reader should only "hit" or return a message based on the hot files already entered in a state database.

    It would be a misuse of LEADS for the plate reader to query every tag it scanned because there is not an active investigation.

    As far as recording goes, all scanners that scan and return plate data is recorded by an audit log. That audit log must be kept by the department for 72 months. Again, the scanner should only hit on active investigation info.

  11. Don't forget that a lot of the newer OSHP cars have those forward facing license plate scanners. If he had been sitting in the right direction on the side of the freeway, he'd have gotten some of the plate numbers on the bikes before he even moved. It scans really quick, but don't know how well it would do with a group at those speeds. And he only has to pursue long enough to get a lock on the plate, and they can just go to your house and wait.

    License plate readers don't actively scan plates that aren't listed in a hot file. Meaning they are only scanning plates that have an active want/warrant.
