Nothing more, nothing less. Big Merc knows this, and so does everyone else reading this thread, even if they don't want to admit it.
Right, sure.Originally Posted by ultravorx
I like the look for it's attitude, not because I'm trying hard to associate it to a copped-out CVPI. I've always been one to admit when I'm wrong, and admit my true feelings about anything. If I felt as strong as you, RCSignals, I'd be in your boat calling this guy a wannabe too. But I digress, when I look at the pictures I see a Marauder staring back at me with steel teeth giving a statement of attitude. I guess only a few see what I see.Originally Posted by RCSignals
I can only speak for one person, myself, when I say that when I look at Wesman's car or this dude's car I get the idea of "Don't ***** with me." It is a strong statement, the pushbar that is. LEOs have them for many reasons, does that make the push bar an officer only item? Is the dude in the white expedition with a bull bar trying to look like a cop too? This thread is not all about wanting to look like a cop, we all know this can be done for a fraction of what this guy has spent and he could pull it off much better.
We could sit here in front of our computers and point the finger at this guy and call him an impersonator, I'm sorry, but where are the lights? Where is that dash cam that is probably next, right? Lets point a finger when he gets the divider and fancys a pair of cuffs off his mirror, or how about when he mounts a 100w speaker to the bars, K? I'm only trying to be fair.

Some taxis use the same push bar, front and rear. There isn't too much more utilitarian than a Taxi.
A brush guard on a SUV or truck is a whole different matter. No one with one on their SUV or truck is after a 'Crown Vic effect'
Anyway, as I said before, the so called 'CVE' is a myth. It's of Walter Mitty.
Know who he is?
10-4, Thanks!Originally Posted by RCSignals
Frank, thanks for being a good sport, and for not taking offense to my comments. Atleast I hope that you haven't. Like I said, it's perfectly fine to have your own tastes as all of us do. I just don't share them with you when it comes to this mod, and I wanted to explain why (which I did). Just another veiwpoint. That's all. I hope there's no hard feelings. Nothing wrong with a good spirited exchange or debate now and then. I often do the same with my close friends and my co-workers too. And even when we don't agree, we still work together well.Originally Posted by ultravorx

Guns don't kill people....... I do.
Im taking this all in good stride Billy, i know everyone has his/her own opinion and such.Originally Posted by BillyGman
For instance, i dont like beer, but talking to certain people, i'd be condemed for not liking it.
It just goes to show that internet forums are a powerful tool and can really voice opinions!
Maybe now i WILL get the tear drop and fake video camera, just to add to the debate
JUst kidding, i got the bar for the reason i stated, and thats that. SOme will like it, some wont. To each his own.
