COE Best questions about your COE....

I can't be the only one that gets odd questions about their COE.

I think my best so far was: "Did you cut the nose off that truck?".

 

" I didn't know they made a pick-up that big!"

 

What's an Autocar?

 

Young Cop pulled me over, "Said why are you driving a dune buggy on a city street ?"

Course I am always pissed when I get stopped. " I said , I think you better call your supervisor "

He came while I sat in truck, with my Insurance card, Registration, copy of my drivers license in a sandwich bag
He said: "what cha got here?" I said, "one of my toys"
he said well: Let's see what you want to show me, I handed him the bag, He said: I mean under the hood,"
well, we got thru it when he saw the big block Chevy behind the cab, as I lifted the bed ..

A REALLY GREAT DAY, NO TICKEE !!!! for me..

 

How could anyone mistake a COE for dune buggy?? Maybe the brother of the cop that pulled me over towing my boat lift home that quoted max vehicle load overhang and trying to apply that to the trailer I had with the boat lift on it. When I tried to tell him the max trailer width was 8'6" he thought I was arguing with him... finally his partner clued him in...

 

I had one guy ask why I made the front grill look like a toilet seat. I told him that was Fords doing not mine.

 

Don't mean to change subject:::
Different cop same town,: I had a trailer I made out of a 2006 Chevy long /wide Pu box, I had it loaded with sand, no springs, just bolted to a frame I put together. Cop says "to much of a load for yer PU to pull or stop." My PU was a four Door 1/2 ton 2016 Chev Silverado, V-8. I said: What now? He said : dump half of it out on the curb, and come back for it. I said "how about if I put some in the PU? He said "OK" He got another call as I was shoveling sand to my PU. TWO SHOVEL FULL, AND I MADE IT FOR HOME, soon as he made a turn, red light and siren...

 

"Is that a porta potti on the back?".

me: You should have seen it before it was painted...

 

What the heck is that?

 

Sadly because it doesn’t leave the garage, the only question I get is “when is it going to drive?” ☹️
