Wife and I were out for a drive in the truck today. Plan was to take the dog out for a walk in the country but he needed a new harness so we headed downtown to Pet Valu to get one. As we approached the area of the store we came to a set of lights where there was a bicycle cop. I let him go first then overtook him before pulling into the plaza where I parked and shut off the truck while my wife exited the vehicle to head into the store.
Officer on the bike follows us in and stops at the sidewalk behind the truck that ran in front of the stores. He stood there for a minute and then approached me. The exchange went like this:
Officer: "Hey, is that factory exhaust?"
Me: (concerned) "No, it's a Borla cat-back"
Officer: "it sounds amazing, I have the same truck and have been considering Corsa"
Me (relieved) "Oh! Yes, we just had it put one, we really like it"
Officer: "What series is it?"
Me "It's the S-Type"
Officer: "OK, thank you! you have me considering this setup now" *laughing*
Me: "No problem!"
Officer: "Have a great day and thanks again!"
He leaves.
I in no way expected that to go that way so I was of course pleasantly surprised. Sometimes we forget that cops are car guys, gun guys, bikers, hikers...etc and may be interested in the same things we are and do, even when on duty.
