As you can see, mine are quite dark. No clue what the tint level is, they were purchased this way.
These most certainly do affect one's ability to see at night, which is why I made sure that I have a way to take them off and put them back on quickly and easily.
Nice, and glad to hear it!
I've been somewhat contemplating their Tekno 1 but haven't been able to convince myself I'll like it based solely off the pictures on their website. It would be a bit of a kick in the nuts at $850 for the color matched option just to find out it looks better hanging...
I've used both V1 Driver and Companion, both are decent apps IMO; but most of the time I don't bother using anything but Waze. Maybe it's just my particular phone, or possibly the combination of also using Waze and Spotify at the same time; but even at the 2 to 3ft my phone usually sits from...
This one appears to be a FuzzBuster II, which Car and Driver claims they found to be a Cincinnati Microwave Escort stuffed inside a FuzzBuster box when they tested a variety of radar detectors in Feb 1979.
An interesting bit of history:
After his graduation from the University of Cincinnati...
Never tested it while the Trofeo's were still on, but I took my cousin for a little ride last night and while 'inspecting' the brakes from roughly 70mph with the new Pilot Sport 4S' saw 1.34g locked on the accelerometer once we stopped. Still felt like about 10ft! 🤣
Never for an update per se, but I've sent both of my gen 1's in before for just a general 'tune up' to make sure everything was properly calibrated and working as intended. As far as I can recall, it was only like 2 weeks round trip.
How are the shifters?
I haven't kept up on any of this stuff but there was a time when they weren't so great.... albeit this was probably 15 or 20yrs ago and Uniden wasn't even barely an after thought then either.
Used a pair of V1, gen 1's (One for each vehicle I had) until the gen 2's were released.
Now have 3 V1, gen 2's, still one for each vehicle I own.
Sometimes I almost think the gen 2 is too good though. Just the other night I picked up one of the local Sheriffs Deputies at 7.5 miles. I was...
I'll admit, I don't have any experience with the latest generation of F150's; but the 4wd F150's from at least 2004 to 2014 have vacuum operated lockouts (for lack of a better term) which disconnect each of the front hubs from the front CV shafts. This effectively prevents the front wheels from...
Wow, you don't see that too often.
And yeah, I hear ya on the throwing money away bit. Everything's getting so expensive now days that you really have to pay attention and try to find a deal wherever you can!
I ended up doing the HomeLink visor and got both visors from a car the guy was...
Right on then! Good to know, and glad you found a deal on it! 👍
I remember back in the day when I used to do the ebay thing a lot, people wouldn't even bother to check the new price on something and would then get into a bidding war and end up paying way more than they would have if they...
Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I think you may have gotten screwed on that display if the information on parts.ford.com is correct....

They said the wheel slipped in their tire machine when taking off the old tire. So apparently it was the clamps holding the wheel that did it.
They pointed it out right away when I went to pick up the car and said that they would take care of it.
I've known these guys for probably 30yrs and...
