2013 Dodge 1500- North Coventry Police K-9

[cbpdogboy]

I love the graphics and the roll up rear tonnau cover with equipment box. The vehicle needs some surface mounted m4's in place of the fender mounted laws. It also needs solid lights and more front/rear warning...

BTW WTH are the lights twinkling under the tailgate>?

No offense, but the lighting on that thing SUCKS. There is not one good thing about that trucks lighting that I like. What with those stupid little LEDs under the tailgate!?

Im wondering if the LED's under the tailgate are the Whelen OS lights. But I do agree the lighting on the truck is insufficient.

Why the stealth graphics if you are gonna surface mount? This thing needs a light stick and a interior bar (front)!

 

[Kent@MoveOverOutfitters]

I dont see the Dodge in the video. Do you mean the Ram?


I am kidding, I think I will always call it a Dodge despite the brand change.

i love the vehicle choice and seeing the "ram boxes" for the 1st time in a while.


stealth graphics are nice too, but the lighting package sucks...split fail and too many small lights...grill and rear liftgate needs some M6's and the sides need M4's (all solid color). I would've liked to have seen an exterior lightbar, but I wouldn't be complaining if they got had better perimeter warning

If they wanted the lo-pro, they should have got a pair of PAR 36 Pedestal mounted on the grille guard. It would have made it look like off road lights, intill turned on.

I do like the setup for the Dog and the Dodge truck is nice. Just crappy lights is all.

Ghost graphics with external mounted lightheads... makes plenty of sense.

 

[Jamey@NNE]

I really like the truck. I would of went with a more low pro surface mount instead of lin6s like ions of it had to be whelen.

 

[SafetyLighting]

Those lights under the tailgate are Sylvania LED christmas lights.


Only a matter of time until this truck gets creamed.

Nice truck but I agree it needs more, I currently drive a Ram and my personal vehicle has more on it then that truck.... the twinkle little led light need to go....

 

[NoVAFed]

They found out the K9 likes to chew on larger lights, so they had to go small (and ineffective thus not drawing it's attention).

 

[Station 3]

I hope the officer that gets that unit atleast sees the disaster that it is and buys a dashlight and a throw light to throw on the roof so he can respond to damn calls.

Looking at the video again, I believe there is some sort of light, poss an Inner Edge on the passenger side. From the beginning of the video until right around 5 seconds, there is a light flashing in the passenger side visor area. Around the 1:39 mark, near the rear-view mirror, red and blue lights flashing. On second look it might be a SlimLighter due to the spacing of the red and blue. The glare from the sun really washes out the windshield making it difficult to see.


I was surprised by the use of small lights due to the fact that North Coventry covers a couple of miles of Rt422, which can get pretty busy at times. Seeing the post about the K-9, and thinking it as the coolest chew toys ever, makes sense though.
