    What roads to not go on in nyc in sprinter van

    Even though I'm rather loudly marked and stand out pretty well, I'm right there with you. Anywhere in the northeast, for that matter. "Passenger cars only" might just mean 9 foot clearances or something. But mainly, after that NYC cop turned and pointed to the sign and said, "What part of...

    What roads to not go on in nyc in sprinter van

    No, it's both (in order to get a ticket). The quoted text makes that very clear. Other states have different criteria for what does and does not require commercial tags, and NY doesn't impose its criteria for that onto other states, so having commercial tags from out of state, in and of itself...

    What roads to not go on in nyc in sprinter van

    The key really is that you have to be unmarked. NYC DOT - Truck or Commercial Vehicle?

    Tall van clearance heights

    There are roads around Boston that say trucks only. Storrow Drive along the Charles River downtown in particular where there are half a dozen low overpasses. It says "trucks only," but what it really means is "9-foot clearance ahead, so sphincter-pucker up!"

    Tall van clearance heights

    My 05 Sprinter is 8.64 feet tall, or about 8 feet, 8 inches. I have a Fantastic Fan Vent with a vent cover, but the imporant thing is the Tailgater satellite TV antenna which is 17.5 inches tall, plus the roughly half inch bracket I made for it, so it adds 18 inches. So I have a clearance of...

    Don't July To Me

    I'm in Vegas where as of today it's legal to buy up to one ounce of pot for recreational purposes. They expect 2 of every 3 purchases to be made by tourists. Nevada becomes the fifth state to legalize recreational Marijuana. And that makes Jeff Sessions sad.

    The Trump Card...

    Do you really believe that when Trump says he's going to build a wall that he means literally that he himself will build it? Do you not know how the government works? Do you believe that when Trump says he will do this or that, and what he's talking about necessarily requires the participation...

    The Trump Card...

    A.K.A. reasonable expectations. :D That's why I think Bernie would have been aesome as president, because no one with reasonable expectations would expect him to get even 10% of the stuff he said he'd do. Hillary, on the other hand, very much could. According to most on the left, thanks in...

    The Trump Card...

    He's only the president, not both the president and the congress. If everything was solely up to him it would be done already. If you're going to take him literally, you still, nevertheless, have to do so with reasonable expectations. Unless, of course, the goal is to track his failures and...

    Yesterday I managed to time my Lordsburg nap perfectly so that I hit Phoenix right at rush hour, and at 117 degrees. I'm in Vegas baby waiting to deliver in a few minutes to the largest data center in the would. They also have locations in Reno, Atlanta and Grand Rapids.

    You're still taking him literally. What he said was, 'We're going to have better and cheaper health insurance, less waste, and a revamped health care cost system that will reduce the cost of health care and health insurance.' True, he hasn't done all that yet, and he certainly didn't do it on...

    Batteries

    The answer is YES to both questions. Yes, you can mix battery types and capacities, and yes, it's a really bad idea. When you mix battery capacities in parallel, all of the batteries will effectively become the lower CCA in the circuit, in this case the three 950 CCA batteries become 700 CCA...

    Uhm, that's a Chick-fil-A cup. The libs won't even hear what's on the audio after they spot that cup. They'll explode.

    A closeup of the door. If anyone knows what that logo is supposed to be, let me know. To me, it looks like a penis running to catch a pop fly. That can't be right.

    And here's mine. The GA06 special election means exactly the same thing that every other special House seat election has meant - absolutely nothing beyond that particular seat.
