    I am in love with the taillight flasher! Too bad the reverse lights are not used.

    I just don't like those funky tail light flashers. Way too busy. Also the right high beam is out.

    The light bar has been around for a few years. The message board is new. And I love those dual color heads on the side if the push bumper!

    The only thing "new" in that video I have yet to see is the new model Charger.

    Seen those message boards for a few years now down here, surprisingly they are actually readable on the highway at distance and speed. (in daylight to boot!)
    An annoyance online since original BBS days- early 90's. Damn I miss modem tones... but not 14.4 kbit/s.

    You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I'm going to get and beat you with until you understand who's in command here.... (best quote ever!)

    Drives me nuts when anyone takes a promotional video while doing something illegal...like parking across two disabled parking spots.

    Straps for the front and the rear of the lightbar? Yesh!

    They should at least center the message on the board. I don't know why anyone would buy their products. They make the SAME crap everyone else (With the exception of MegaMessageUFOBar) and from the looks of it it all costs more than Whelen's comparable products.

    You see those type light bars in Canada a lot, the ones with the arrow stick. don't see message boards to much, especially in the states, the only department who really uses it now is the NYPD...

    I really, really don't like that lightbar. Looks too odd on top of that Charger....or in general for that matter. Bright, yes, but the design is left to be desired.

    Not fond of the lightbar..too bulky and gaudy. The dual straps drives me nuts

    The right high beam is out...typical Dodge crap.

    The rest if pretty cool!

    The lightbar is a nice concept but poorly executed. Whelen's Edge Messenger is too small to be effective IMO but if you want a big board like the D&R, then you have to have a gigantic lightbar too.

    Very interesting lightbar indeed. I'm not sure if i like it or not with the whole message board on it. I would have liked it better as a slicktop.
    Effective leadership is putting first things first. Effective management is discipline, carrying it out.

    Bulky lightbar for sure, but nothing beats an actual arrow for getting people to move over.

    Bear Valley PD (CA) purchased a Chevy Tahoe and the entire unit was outfitted with DandR lights and equipment for free. The only catch was DandR was allowed to use the truck at a few car and lighting shows. Great looking truck, but the lights weren't incredibly bright.
