Hi Bryant & welcome:

I worked commercial nuclear power for almost 20 years.

Now I'm a Combustion Turbine Technician (O&M) at a peaking station in South Western Connecticut.

I work the 2pm - 11pm M-F shift, we don't do weekends (except OT) nor the major holidays (always off).

Nice to meet you.

Welcome Jay..

The new software update messed up the links..

You can join by going to your user CP and join under group memberships..

Or you can wait for them to fix the links..

I'm Steve, from Groveland. I have been a member of FTE since the email list days, but I haven't been around the board for a few months. I own crownvic.net, which is where I spend most of my time.

Welcome Steve:

I used to have a Crown Victoria Interceptor 5.0(iirc), bought it new off the dealer's lot with only 12 miles on it.

It had the police hubcaps and was 100% dark blue.

It had yet to be drilled to mount anything.

The dealership had the contract to supply the cruisers and this one was a special order for the Chief though it still had vinyl seats and rubber floor covering.
But that was good as we have our baby eventually.

The dealership said that when the car came in and the dealership then called the town to take delivery, the town was in a quandary about it. So the dealership put the car in the rag and we had money down on it before the town go its act together. We were told that the town called back with the OK the day after we plunked down the deposit.

Put a hundred and some odd thousand miles on it before my wife was shouldered into the curb at 25mph. The front end was tweaked just enough so you could see the hood to fender gap was not parallel. Then a few days later the radiator cracked. The insurance company totaled it. I couldn't believe it, the body was still pristine.

Years later a cop friend told me that my car was well know in my end of the state.
My friend said that my car was on the good list.
The bad list is for former cop cars who's drivers try to intimidate other motorist and / or speed down the highway like they were a cop.
I understood that those on the bad list get hauled over for the slightest infractions.
