    Shoot, all you have to do is take the dozer-part off the front, flip it horizontal, and use it as a spoiler on the back. That ought to help with fuel economy, not to mention down-force. ;)

    I went to Lake Worth yesterday afternoon and paid the ticket I got a couple of weeks back. They gave me a receipt with the breakdown of charges on it. I nearly flipped out.....

    I got the ticket for doing 80 in a 60 (9pm-after dark) on 820 near Carswell. I was paced and had my cruise on 72. 80 my bu**.

    Breakdown as follows.
    DPS Arrest Fee (I was not arrested) $5.00
    Consolidated court cost (no trial) $40.00
    Court House security $3.00
    Justice Court Building Security $1.00
    Justice Court Technology Fee $4.00
    Judicial Pay Raises (unbelievable) $4.00
    Jury service fee (no trial) $4.00
    Subtitle Court Cost Fee 542.403 (no trial) $30.00
    Traffic $3.00
    Administrative Fee $130.00
    Total $224.00

    And I even asked for and got deferred adjudication. At least the ticket will be dismissed in 90 days if I don't get another one. I had no idea that they kept a slush fund for pay raises and we get to pay court costs even if the ticket does not go to court..........grrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hope yours goes better.....................

    I think it is just another way to get another $4 thrown in. I wonder about all the court cost and jury fees and I pleaded "no contest". I paid my ticket standing in a hallway speaking to a woman through glass............took all of five minutes start to finish.........In the stone building across the street from the Spring Creek B-B-Q at the 4th redlight on Jacksboro highway (those were the directions given to me on the phone
