Default Ford Crew cabs w/7.3 Diesel

<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote>Originally posted by: Trasher

Left the hotel this morning and walked out to the G to find a ticket on the window. No front plate. Going to have to donate $51.00 to the Buena Park police dept.[img][/img][img][/img][img][/img][img][/img][img][/img] Really ticks me off........ Come on now, don't they have anything better to do than cruise hotel parking lots[img][/img]



I have 5 vehicles and 3 don't have front plates. Been doing that for many years and never have been popped until now. Really ticks me off (did I mention that already?)[img][/img]</end quote></div>

LJ got that ticket too.

Boss recently bought an Audi A8 for his wife. They don't even offer a mounting bracket for the front plate. "So you guys sold me a car that's not even legal in the state of California?" No ticket yet. So he mounted the plate on a spare bumper he got that was SUPPOSED to have a bracket...it didn't.

I don't get the one pic with the quad flipped over. The trail looked pretty tame right there.

Jettas have the same thing, no place to mount a front plate. However, for around $70 or so (IIRC) you can by a kit (for the Jetta) from the dealer to make your car legal[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] That's wrong! Might be the same for the Audi. Of course, there is some drilling involved.

I know, might have to use a polaroid camera to take the pictures, just so our expensive cameras won't break[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

I put together a quick page and posted one picture.(not of me)[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

A couple of others I found in a email are too big to be uploaded. I need to find out how to re-size it to fit the limit[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
Hey, I just sell software but don't know how to use it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

LOL! well then don't[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Have a Ford tech do it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I understand what your saying[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I think on smaller cars with fiberglass/plastic front ends its different. I also think the state should come down on the manufacturers[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] for selling cars that do not meet the state requirements for vehicles being able to bolt on 2 license plates. Of course mine does, I just elect not to run a front plate[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
