Both of my rigs have those on there. I didn't even know what it was for until I read this. It goes between the mirror mount and the windshield.

Oh if you think it's crazy that half the world thinks ya'll actually talk like that then you are going to love this.

I've had several phone calls over the years in which folks think that NM (New Mexico) stands for North Maine. I also get the occasional compliment on how well I speak english..... and (this is the kicker) we've had issues with overseas shipping companies that refuse to ship to us because we're not part of the USA.

There's Old Mexico and then there's us, you bring some beer when you invade and I'll provide the enchiladas.
