Not if they have a good one. The filters will catch it. I've actually thought about buying one of these, mounting it in the grille, and wiring in a momentary switch.

Uh, you have 9 posts and you're doing the same to him?

Some police guns use K-Band, but most now use Ka-Band. That being said, there are multiple frequencies in each band, so... I don't know.

And it uses K-band radar.

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch is also a town in Wales.

Dude... Too soon...

It's a town. Google it. I'm just curious how that word even came to a place like this. By the way, I was in your neighborhood yesterday.

Black chrome makes me frisky.

That plan is $2205 retail, and Dealer Cost is $980, just in case you care to know.

I obviously need to turn her back on. I have voice directions turned off, but I would really like to hear her pronounce my street name. It's a Welsh word with 4 of the same letter in it.

Yo, raider... Just out of curiosity, if you're comfortable saying, which warranty did you get and how much were you charged? Is yours FWD or AWD, and did you get PremiumCARE, ExtraCARE, BaseCARE, or PowertrainCARE? How many years and how many miles? Did you also get RentalCARE, TireCARE, DentCARE, WindshieldCARE, TripleCARE, or EtchCARE? Did you also get a maintenance plan?

You're clearly not getting it. I'll try one more time. I am not saying that you lost anything. I am not saying that you were screwed. It could be anything from him misreading the interest rate initially to him flat out lying. I'm not even implying that he was trying to dupe you, although it is a possibility. I'm saying that BUYING THE ESP DID NOT LOWER YOUR RATE. That is where the obvious lie was told. If you're happy, great, but like akirby said, it's important that others that may fall prey to dishonest people know beforehand. My wife even almost got taken. In 2007, she bought a civic. We keep separate money. The car and payment were hers alone, but I'm not going to let her get conned. I worked the fastest deal on it in history, and then it was time for f&i. The guy even tried to tell me that I needed to wait outside, since my name wasn't going to be on the car. She demanded that I be in there with her. At this point, I was very calm, waiting to see where this was going. He ran her credit, and then told her the best he could get was 6.9%. She has good credit, I have stellar credit, and we're in a community property state, so I knew he was full of shit, but I still bit my tongue. He asked her about the extended warranty. She declined. He even said, "if I could get the interest lowered to where it didn't cost you anything extra, would you want it?" she asked what he could get it down to. He said, definitely 5%, and maybe even less." I asked, "if you can get her bought at 5% with it, why can't you with it?" his response: "if I'm gonna scratch your back, you have to scratch mine." I told her it was time to go, and the guy actually physically threatened to hit me if I told her what to do again. I encouraged him to do so, which he graciously declined. We got her car at another dealership for the same price with 0% that afternoon. The f&i guy in question became unemployable and left GA. Please understand that even a victimless crime is still a crime, and awareness of the possibility of it happening is your best defense. The purpose of a site like this is to share information and help each other. Wouldn't you want others to know and be prepared?

No, I was saying that the esp purchase didn't lower the rate. He told you that it did. More of my point was all that stuff akirby said. Whatever rate you can get with add-ons, you can get without. The only time that anything outside of the f&i person's office changes your rate is if your credit sucks and you have to go to secondary to get bought.

No. I can make it simple. Say I'm an f&I guy. I have you bought at 3% on a loan. I tell you 5%, but if you buy this warranty, I can get you 3%. Either way, you buy the car. I make $ for fornicating you on interest or I make $$$ on the warranty. I laugh all the way to the bank either way. If you can get x% with extra purchases, you can get x% without.

I'm not guessing. I am not at liberty to tell you why I know this.

Yeah, I have issues with Retro Solutions... I digress.

He lied. You could've had 2.5% the whole time. He told you the higher rate so that you'd buy it and he would get the massive kickback on selling it.

http://www.fordedgeforum.com/index.php?/topic/9024-digital-cameras/page__pid__72501#entry72501 Wlepse, it's about the knowledge and hobby, not the date on the receipt.

Incidentally, I know that almost nobody contributed to my camera thread, but I'm happy, so I'd like to point out that I took that picture with my new lens that I got today. I have the perfect trifecta of zoom lenses now. And thanks for the warm wishes, everyone!

All that ever goes on mine are sunglasses and my phone. Neither is heavy nor hard enough to make a real difference. Besides, Newton was stupid. Nobody actually likes figs.

Well, it goes back to my days of wrestling Sumatran tigers... Okay, fine. I got out of a chair. That's it. I've spent my whole life doing dangerous things just for the adrenaline rush, but I killed my leg getting out of a chair. I tore the labrum in the acetabulum. As it inflamed and peeled up, it cut off the blood supply to the femoral head, thus resulting in avascular necrosis of the femoral head. They put a tantalum rod inside my femur close to three years ago, but the damage is just too far gone. Check out the cool x-ray, though!

I'm still badass. I'm getting an experimental ceramic hip.

I'll be honest. Venting is one thing. Being perpetually negative is another. I'm with Kirby.

Yeah, I know it's not car related, but it's still badass. I'm having a hip replacement later this month. I'm going to have to use a cane for a month or two or three. I decided that the wooden shepherd's hook cane just wouldn't do. Check it out. Triple hand-wound carbon fiber. 14 oz. total. If I'm going to be the 34 year-old gimp, I'll do it in style. Thoughts?

+1 on the ground loop.
