After reading the article I remembered delivering two Dodge Sprinters to Minot ND in a dry van trailer. To tie them down they had nailed blocks in front and back of the tires with part of a load strap over the tires and under the blocks. Lucky for me they had put them in nose first so I could get in through the rear doors and back them out.

In California box trucks and semi's are only required to have a front plate with current tags

I don't run front plates, though they are required by Utah law. It's simply not a priority for Law Enforcement here.

Full Metal Jacket...Depending on which .45 is on my hip from day to day, I've got between 22 and 25 of those little jewels on my belt at all times...50 more in the truck in 5 magazines if I run out......Ben

I was always partial to a pump action 12 gauge loaded with slugs

In my line of work I travel quite a bit and have found that the slim profile of a 1911 in a belt holster is the best on long drives, Lately I've been carrying a Cylinder & Slide custom Springfield 1911 with 3 Wilson 47D magazines loaded with Gold Dot ammo.

So if the bad guys see a Crown Vic with no front tag they know it's 5-0 immediately.

In Miami all (most) of the unmarked police cars had plates that were obvious, I can't remember exactly now but it was a definite tell, didn't make a lot of sense. I don't imagine no front plate is a give away it just reminded me of the Miami cops.

Nor Arizona. Kinda strange when pulling a fifth wheel for someone to read the plate.
