For some reason I feel that 4 doors on a truck is just necessary, so the Ram SRT10 is what will have to do for me.

Nice truck, everyone is just hatin' cause they think you are a cop haha.

Feel the same way more and more. Everytime I grab my gym bag, or take my dogs some where I wish I had a full four door. Then again I guess the extended cab four door is better than nothing. My old z71 3 door was annoying as hell.

Actually according to this thread he is a Police Officer:

I know a lot of Police Officers that install the reds and blues on their personal vehicles when they do off duty work. Any time a contractor is going to be blocking traffic we require them to have the vehicle with lights on them.

Just because he is in working an off duty job don't think he can not issue tickets. We have an HPD Officer out here at IAH that will wave you over and write you a seat belt/speeding ticket.

I did that to create a false since of security knowing I could do silly stuff on da road and not have to worry about Police Officers in unmarked cars that can either, pull you over and mess with you, or call a bud... Thanks Chad.....

I've usually put strobes on my personal vehicles. Haven't gotten around to doing it to the current truck yet though. Incase I pull up on an accident or something while I'm out and about, I can atleast get peoples attention and slow them down.
