I saw something like that a few years ago at a local grocery store also. It had about that many antennas too. It was all black on a black SUV of some kind with tint so dark I couldn't see any radio equipment inside.

"technically in indiana we're aloud to have red/blue lights but not use them or have them perm mounted. But since I'm a military police officer i get permission cause i use the lightbar on base
"he uses the word "aloud" as in read aloud... vs. allowed.. that's funny
Saw a very similar setup on a local phone company's Rav4. Happened to be fueling up at the time and asked the girl driving it what the deal was. Apparently it was used for signal strength testing for the cellular network, the whole load area was full of equipment.bigcat said:

When I was doing utility locating, AT&T had 2 vans setup close to the same way. I saw them often at cell sites when new fiber lines were being installed.

What's even funnier is the fact that he runs the power cable straight through the door jamb on the pass side rear door...look for the cable coming down!

I've seen that idiot that has that crown vic with the amber bar, he's in my neck of the woods! I've seen him a couple of times flying 96 with those dumbass lights flashing.
God where do all these whackers get the money for these lights? I work 2 jobs and still can't afford em!

I really can't stand anyone talking in their videos telling me about their lights and crap anyways. I want to see your blinkies, not hear your annoying ass talk!

I like how the video says "Storm Chasing Emergency lights" didnt know amber and white alone equals emergency
chono said:
I'm just curious........ Do the storms yield to the amber lights? I mean really, come on. Are there really that many "storm chasers"? I realize that it's an excuse to have blinkies on you vehicle but come on now..........
John
I'm pretty sure every single "Storm chaser light setup" video on youtube is grade A, solid whacker. At least every one i've seen thus far.

Professional storm chasers don't even use lights, for the most part, i have seen some run an amber beacon or small mini bar but if you have a fully loaded mx7000 i think you're ass should be thrown in jail for awhile!
Fast LT1 said:
sure they look stupid, but you always seem to forget the fact that in the majority of the country, amber lights are legal. Jail time? Really? And on the contrary, about the only people I can think of who storm chase and do it for a job (professionals, btw) are universities, news stations, and noaa affiliated groups. ever seen the rolling light show/billboard those news stations drive?
and this coming from the guy who has a shotgun, soon to be an m4 in an overhead mount in his personal vehicle. most cops don't even do that, if were going to start comparing.

Just want to make sure I'm reading that correctly - you've got a shotgun in an overhead mount in your POV? If so, AWESOME! I'd toyed with the idea of throwing a lock for the AR into the rear storage compartment of the Durango behind the third seat but never did. And honestly, I can't justify the need to do it, even to myself

WOW - those LAWS suck! And if you have to have your tailgate window open so the tint doesn't dim your warning light, that's a sign you bought the wrong stuff...
