No, you need to go around 170-180 for them to call in way behind where you actually are. They also can't intercept at those speeds since you outpace all their units and most helos

Its very funny hearing the call in to block being 2-3 exits behind lol!

That sucks, what city was that?

No matter how nice the area that's the issue with parking on the streets, it's always the same exposure for the car no matter where you are. Only semi-reliable way to protect stuff is a locked garage and hope you don't get targeted or have someone around to watch your stuff

Had to help out the fam with something and parked in the yard and couldn't help but look how bad *** of a truck this GMC is. Haven't driven it in a while.


It looks sinister, like something a villain would drive. Love it.

That will look good virtually forever.

Parked in Seabreeze, NJ - what now looks like a beach used to be a town on the Delaware Bay, lost to erosion. There are still pipes, remains of the road and foundations visible through the sand. Love exploring remote places like these.
