I've been pulled over by the local cops 4 times here in Sacramento. Once in my old Tristar, once in my Iltis, once in my Golf Country and the last time in my Syncro single cab. Every time it was just to check them out and make chit chat. Kind of annoying, but you got to be nice to your friendly polizei! Cheers, Jeff
