Other than levelling out, no noticeable difference to me. the suspension guy was trying hard to convince me to add another leaf spring instead of the bags. bear in mind, I have a dually.
wow, you guys must have pretty weak impaired lawyers down there, or some kind of air-tight laws. I met one lawyer who had been doing impaired defences for 20-25 years. he hadn't lost an impaired or over .08 trial yet (altho he had lost refusal to blow trials). but then, the legal system seems to have a way of buttering itself. the judges are all ex-lawyers. so maybe up here in socialism land, the system is easier on the guilty? but I thot you guys had it kinda the same way? how did OJ get off when his blood was found at the scene of the crime?? that's a slam dunk in pretty much any country! what a circus that whole thing was.

I know I heard of one case where the lawyer suppoened the breathalyzer company to see the source code to their equipment to see exactly how it worked. Company refused to let the attorney have an expert review the code. Smart attorney. Judge upheld the subpoena and I think the case was tossed.
Actually it looks like it was HUNDREDS of cases in Florida:
DUI Cases

I am looking at bags to level the truck out, already had the headlights adjusted to keep them out of the trees while towing at night[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] I know it won't change my GVW.
I was am leaning towards the on-board sooner or later, but the more I think about it and the more I see friends "not" using their's to air back up[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] (they still use compressors) I think it also just a rich man's gimmick. Even though the push of a button is nice along with having a loud air horn on-board[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] However, I think I can work through those issues when the time comes[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Really thinking about adding an air tank to the truck. Figure I have two of them in the garage, only need to put the plumbing in.

DUI's usually are reduced to 1st degree neglegent driving or wreckless... if they are under 0.15... But we have a kicker system where you are prosecuted under seperate venue by the DOL. they don't care what was goin on. they just want to suspend your liscense. and thats not fair.. you do not recieve due process with them.

Exactly, that's where the DA screwed up, should of just introduced it into evidence. Everyone knows, once leather dries it also shrinks and I think OJ did a great acting job on not getting it to go on[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img] He should of won an award for that performance[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Or should that have been comedy?
Would have been someone from that case:
Kato with the thumping on the wall.
Furman for the Bell not ringing a Bell.
I lost my job in the middle of that trial...so I caught a fair amount of it. Too much actually. LOL.

Let the rumours fly!
Ford - GM merger
Hell, all they would have to do is then somehow get Cummins to make them an engine.
F-Series / Cummins / Allison. (Yes, I've said before, you can get them in the 650/750, but really, how many people are going to go get a Class 6 truck as a grocery getter? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] )
