QUOTE(erics1one @ Mar 3, 2005 - 11:35 AM) since its not a searchable attribute [right][snapback]252775[/snapback][/right] You'd be amazed what kind of technology they have in place today, especially some of the algorithms related to images. I don't doubt for a second that there's software that can parse through car images and pick out license plate numbers. Did any of you guys ever read about how Dodge actively searched online SRT-4 forums to find accounts of people racing and voids their warranty. Without a license plate in a photo, it's a lot harder for them to prove that it was you and it's your car. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...

That would be an interesting read though...do you remember where that was posted? -------------------- |
