I wanna sell mine. :)
How much?
Don't know yet, but you don't want it. It's a 2000 with 135,000 miles. I put on about 200 miles every day.
Good lord, is 200 miles your daily work commute?
Pimpin' be hard work, y0

in CA we use colored registration stickers on the license plate where the colors corrospond to years.... can't really tell but from the blurred out image it looks like it does the same where you are.... so he probably just pulled you over for having an expired reg.

Yep. I live in central Jersey and commute to Philly. Then I travel daily between all our buildings in that area.
where in central jersey do you live? 200 miles a day is a lot. and I cant see why cops would be attracted to your car. its not flashy, its not a coupe, its not a bright color, its a family sedan.
Lakewood, NJ.

Yeah, but like I said before, he'd have to see this tiny sticker from his hiding place 100 feet away, going 45 mph, at night.

Nope. No 6.

He didn't say why he originally pulled you over? I'm pretty sure they need a reason to pull you over, and so his ticket for expired registration is invalid. But you'll get that dismissed when you renew your registration, so it doesn't really matter.

I still have to pay the $54 fine, but I have no problem paying it, I was guilty of that. I just don't know why he pulled me over.
Don't you have the sticker on the windsheild? Those are numbered and can be seen quite easily. I'm sure that's why he stopped you, but shame on you for not asking. And hell, you got off easy. He could have towed your car.

Link? Down here, you have to pay the fine if your licence, inspection sticker, registration, etc. are expired. They only get you off if you don't have the paperwork with you and then go to court with the documents.

<<---- Paid $114 for an expired inspection sticker 3 months ago.

They tow people for anything in some Texas cities now. And it's a growing trend supported by the masses. :confused:

2Ks are okay.

keep the same body style add a 3.5 and 6-M and then you have a winner. (02 and 03)
of course I am slightly biased.
