In non-union Mesa, AZ, they painted over a palm frond.

We're in the 21st century and they're using triangulation to calculate speed? Satellite or not that's a 15th century method!

I figure OBD III or IV will have GPS units to track speed and issue tickets.

That's a waste of food in some parts of the country.

That's how I put the chains on my Neon and it worked great!

Which axle do I install the chains on?

Chains must be installed on the drive axle. All-wheel drive vehicles and 4-wheel drive vehicles may have chains installed on either drive axle, but the rear axle is preferred, unless the vehicle manufacturer recommends the front axle.

Which reminds me of a couple of years back when we were heading up to Mammoth with some friends.
We were almost all the way there, but it was snowing badly and there was a checkpoint where without 4 wheel drive you had to put chains on, so while I was busy putting my chains on the 2WD Suburban, our friends paid to have chains put onto their Explorer... they were all done when I took a look and they were on the front wheels... on a 2WD Explorer... I think they got the installer guy to swap them to the rears for free (and got tipped)...

That's awesome! Although that alleged V-8 looks an awful lot like a 4-cyl VTEC engine.

"A Canadian dealership allegedly conned a mentally disabled woman into paying $63,000 for an ex-demo Mazda6. Worse, she'd only gone to the dealership to get overcharged for a new set of tires.

Madeline Leonard, who suffers from an unnamed mental disability, visited Mazda of Orangeville to have new tires put on her 2004 Mazda3. By the time she left, she'd purchased a 3,700-mile, ex-demo Mazda6 for about 6,000 Canadian Loonies more than the sticker price of a new one. The ever-helpful salesman also threw in every package in the book, charging up to three times their book value for things like window etching and undercoating. All that meant Madeline paid roughly 25,000 Loonies ($24,000) more than she should have. Madeline lives on a $1,900-a-month government subsidy.

Despite falling for the con, it was Madeline that noticed lower sticker prices at other dealers in town and notified authorities. The dealership now faces a maximum fine of $240,000 and the two salesmen involved could face fines of $95,000 a piece.

"We didn't do anything wrong in the case of this transaction," said the dealer's business manager. "We made a little bit of money on the deal. I guess she was not happy with it."
