Anyone know what it takes to get a title for a camper in OH?? I found a decent 12-14 Footer (should be light enough for the KJ after i get some heavy duty cooling he said he towed it with a 4 cyl. basic S10 without having any issues) that the guy lost the title to, it looks decent from the outside but the inside I would probably gut. He wants to trade me for a edger...

The owner can go and get a replacement title. All he has to do is go and say he lost it and they will issue a new one. Way easier than you trying to get one. Tell him you'll give him 10 bucks and the edger :wink:

if he gets a title

Haha I told him if he could go get the title that I would do it, since he said he just really wants it gone, but I guess hes not taking the hint...
I always just figure if it's meant to be, it will happen. So if he get back to me about getting a title I may be the owner of a new camper!
Oh and here is my other new toy that I picked up Tuesday:

1998 Arctic Cat Jag 440 with 3300 miles

I think I'm taking after my dad already, I gotta have my toys.
Other then my 06 KJ which is nice to say I bought myself and its paid off, I have a 1970 C10 Shortbed truck I'm building, and lastly gotta have an ATV so I just a cheapy of a 2003 Polaris Trailblazer 250.
Not to bad for 19 :mrgreen:

Not too bad, everyone has to have a few toys
only things I had at 19 was a new Ford pickup, a Harley chopper, ( the real thing not what they pay 50,000 for now :wink:

) a 32 ford with a small block Chevy, chopped, channeled, 62 Mercury convertible, and a beater Jeep, the next year at 20 was when I paid cash for an 80 acre farm. Sold the 32, 62,and the chopper and gave the money to Kent State!
Times were good back in the early 70s, and I made less than 1/4 of what I do now at my 'day job" !

Crutches/knee immobilizer and a stick shift are not great together. I am reduced to driving my girlfriend's Rendevous!

I'd run from someone wanting that much for something they appear to know nothing about or are lying about:

That is a CJ2A CIVILIAN jeep, not a "C-3" Military jeep, which would be an MB (IIRC) that year, anyway.

Forest green paint do nots a military jeep make.

Ohio was on the WV news this morning..... Ohio Cops/State Highway No longer need to catch you on RADAR/LASER to issue you a speeding ticket.... Apparently Ohio cops are trained well enough, that they can SPOT a speeder and do not need to have proof of you speeding.....

PPPPPFFFFFFT!

tommudd · **Posted:** Sun Jun 06, 2010 11:07 am

Wonder if they clocked the wind speed last night since they are so good. :shock:

Several storms, tornados, passed through, did not get much sleep
Several homes torn up
3 people killed
Local school torn up real bad
One Police department destroyed
Several people still without power

Chris: The news is wrong, again. There is nothing new to this and I am sure all, if not nearly all, states have similar provisions regarding speed estimation. Example: If you see a car flying low but are unable to get a radar/lidar ( laser) track on it, you can write the ticket as "estimated." If you ever get a ticket, most of them have HOW SPEED MEASURED CHECK ONE boxes and I'll bet that most all states' uniform traffic citations include "estimated." Plus, in Ohio, you must be able to visually estimate a vehicles speed within 5 mph of the actual speed without any measuring device before you can be certified to run radar. There is training and experience backing up the estimates.

It has always been this way and convictions are based on the totality of circumstances. You do not hear much of the original case in appellate court rulings as their review is narrowly restricted to judge the specific issue raised, not the entire case. For example: Goof gets a ticket for 100/55 for being visibly faster than everyone else and officers is certified in estimation via radar licensure. In court, goof says " Heck yes I was speeding, but he ain't gotz no radar!!!" He is convcted based on the etitmate, the visual clues of passing other traffic, and his own statements. He appeals the visual estimation part. The appellate court only rules on that issue and you do not hear of the confession or other evidence. And news, being news, sensationalizes a story.

Estimation has been legal since speed laws where enacted as it pre-dates radar/lidar.
