THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
Took me 3 days, 2,000 miles, 6 states, three time zones, 7 fuel stops, a dozen doubleshots, half a case of water, 3 hotel stays and a few dead braincells, but I'm finally here... to all my Arizona bretheren. |

Lose the plate unless you want unwanted attention from LEOs.
Lose the TBL sticker unless you want unwanted attention from LEOs. Welcome to Az, where you living and who do you work for? |

Some places they "work" great, from my experience, Az is not one of those places!

TBL sticker??

Yes, then plate is a FLorida plate, that TBL sticker had gotten me into as many jams as it got me out of; lucky for me the LEO block on my DL took care of my run-ins with the FHP.
I'm living in Green Valley, close to the Titan Missile Museum; I work for US Customs & Border Protection at the Nogales POE. I am gonna ditch the plate next week, when i get paid, already got my new DL, and i registered Republican; Tell Rizzo, I got his ammo can ready. Oh yeah, I will be tossing illegals over the fence to make it an Olympic Sport.
Did my fair share of "booting out' UDAs (un-Documented Aliens) when i did my TDY in Nogales back in November; probably the reason i fell in love with the state and decided to come here permanently. Been mesmerized by the landscape and the rather nice weather we've been having; Put the Z through it's paces earlier today, driving from the Wal-Mart to the Fry's (about 8 miles away) and my car was accelerating and i was like "WOO-HOO!" I'm liking it already. |

What is the deal with all the stickers on MP? Haven't seen it on other MP Zeros. I stopped there for a similar pic almost a year ago to catch a nice dusk but was in a hurry to get to PHX. You might have noticed it's a long drive from most of Texas.

You might have noticed it's a long drive from most of Texas. Jester Wannabe AZ Resident Yeah! Kinda noticed that when i was in the middle of nowhere... When you stop seeing Rest Stops and start seeing Parking Stops (same as a Rest Stop, but no bathrooms and nothing more than trash cans and maybe a gazeebo or two, but nothing around you for miles...
THis was in Katy, TX (I think) in the middle of the mountaisn, verey scenic and I loved the enviornment,.
The rest stop was at the top of a hill,so you have a great view of the area...
Then there was this POS, stop; in the middle of the vast emptiness of Texas, with ghost towns all around and nothing but buzzards overhead...
Seriously, nothing for miles and miles - not even radio reception. It made for a very boring drive.,.
However, the sunset was beautiful... Overall, i think this was one heck of a journey through the belly of America; i really enjoyed it and if i ever do this again??? I'M TAKING A PLANE. ![]() |

Nice pics. That was west of Katy. Texas has a couple of armpits then there is that region between the sack and exit chute, that would be Houston. Katy is burb thereof. I'm in Dallas so I don't pick up I-10 until just beyond Waythehelloutthere. Went to FL on vacation when I was kid and coming back I remember getting to the TX state line and the first mileage sign was Beaumont XX and El Paso was something like 857. I thought I'd sure hate to know I have travel all the distance and still be in the same state.
Enjoy! When I went there for the first time I didn't really want to go but the GF had family there so we took a trip out there to see them. Been going back every chance we have since then. I thought of moving there but have deep roots here and have decided that I don't want to corrupt it work and responsibility. Jester Still a Texan |

Curious about the TBL and found this(pastie) http://www.masscops.com/threads/two-tbl-stickers-compensate-for-one-reject-sticker-correct.98034/
Is it in support of LEO? Or do dummies try to hide behind? More google for me. Edit. Now I get it. There are Sheirff Posse stickers all over up here but only 11 members. Got it. http://policelink.monster.com/topics/607-blue-line-stickers/posts |
