What did you do to your Ram today???

They still use KA band radar guns mounted in their vehicles. I keep my radar detector for that reason. Laser detection in a radar detector is useless because they train their beam on your headlight or licence plate. Our radar detectors are usually up in the windshield. Even if it picked up the laser beam, you’re caught.
They only defence is to use laser radar jammers, but they are expensive and you need 3-5 of them for full front end coverage.

I don't know of any police departments that don't have laser. That's all I have seen cops have for at least 10 years.

Hello guys! Hope everyone is having a great weekend!!
I installed the Vijay Front and Rear Off-road bumpers on my Rebel! I really love the way they look!
I was worried about the front fitting on the Rebel. But the bumper's mounting holes have a lot of vertical play allowing you to push the bumper up to fit the Rebel perfectly.
Assembly of the bumper was the hardest part, as they give you barely any space to fit your hand to hold washers and nuts. Other than that, super simple installation.
🤘🤘🤘
Have all the lights wired up to separate switches.

Looks good! I like the profile pic - is that a Golf R or GTI?

Took my brother in laws 6.2 out. The new interior is nice. But the seats aren’t nearly as comfortable as the ram. I’m still happy I left gm for the ram.

Did you check for the tailgate open splash screen?

No I did not. Just that little icon. That never came up on the center screen. Is there another setting I need to enable with Alphaobd?

I can't remember. The settings are in the AlfaOBD thread. Did you put your truck in drive or reverse?
 
Finally got around to installing my TRX-style grille lights. Need to adjust the angles on them. But I’m very happy with them.

They all have laser, but have to be stopped to purposely use It. it’s hard to pinpoint laser by hand and is better steadied by a tripod. A radar gun is either mounted for use in motion or can be handheld and directed. Because of the wide beam, is the reason radar detectors can pick it up. A laser would have to hit your radar detector (if laser sensing equipped) in order to set it off. Again…too late if you were the target. You’ve been nabbed.

Here is a useful site as to where and what states, counties, and cities use X, K, Ka, LIDAR, and ect… Everywhere is different and not all use Lasers just look at the interactive map I’d say more use Ka band than anything else.

 
That's what I'm saying, the cops all have laser, that has a sight, and they point it at each individual car, and pull the trigger to get the instant reading. I don't worry about the few cops that still use the antique radar.

Hahaha nice. 😂😂

Nothin like a good Arancini. A friend of mine had never seen/heard of them before so when we had them I told her it was Italian for exactly what it sounded like (fried spider balls) 🤣😂😅🕷️
 
I Finally had the time to make a much-needed dump run! 😁
