I had the front plate mounted version for about 6 years, no thefts, and only had to replace it once due to battery life...

I have the license plate mount for years. I replaced 2 of them so far.
One... I live in chicago. I get hit a lot on the bumper. You crack them, and water goes in and you are dead. Two.... Make sure they are taking off the right amount. There were a few months I wondered what happened to my credit card bill... They were charging me at a 18 wheeler semi rate. Check your credit card often. Lwin

I tried holding mine out the side window, but it's too much off center. ( the scanners here are in the center of the lane) Currently I just hold it up to the opened sun roof. I suppose if it does work on the rear window you'd have to make sure you don't drive through too fast. Don't want to hit the arm before it raises. |

Oh.
So this thread would explain how I almost wiped out a toll gate tonight on the way back from Jersey. |

The only problem I came across with the outside EZPASS was the cold snow/ice storms. It would freeze and wouldn't work. I carry a regular spare in the glove compartment (in a special foiled wraping to prevent scanning) until I need it.

From what I understand the external licence plate mounted ones get stolen and used. Its easier to just do the pretend to throw money and honk manuver, but I didnt mention that.

I for one, would love to find out what the right answer is here.
Maybe the ez-pass folks are racists - the exterior tags (the black ones) seem to be made of some material that is much less durable than the inside (white) ones. I have gone through 6 of them in the last few years. Parking damage, battery life, sometimes they just crack from the cold... I tried both types on the rear-deck and inside the trunk (you do know it's plastic - I have a GPS and Sat radio antenna in the trunk lid that work fine). Sometimes these work, sometimes not. I always thought it was just too far back for the booth antenna to get it. For now, the sunroof is the way to go. Really annoying. |

When I lived in Chicago, my Ipass would crack. I found out why? Parking. The idiots in the city don't know how to park. Now I carry it in my car. When I need it, I roll down the window and flash. If it reads fine. If not, I'll get a bill and we'll take care of it then.

What happens when you go thru without a EZ pass and don't even own one? Just was wondering because I had no dollar bills! I was going thru tacony bridge. Then when I told the guy I had no money he said I had to turn right down this street and pretty much get money. Then I went right down the street went back pulled over to some donut shop and then gave the guy my change. I think it was a bunch of BS myself but I found change buried underneath the seat of my Outback. I should have just went thru the bridge... Arg!
Another story: don't remember what bridge it was but it was funny as anything when we were heading to Vetrens stadium my friends mom just went like around I think were police cars park or something and nothing even happened. She did this because she knew someone who worked there. LOL shes a crazy one though........... Last edited by legacy852; 12-29-2005 at 09:23 PM. |
