These consoles all look nice, but I'm curious if anyone has any (obviously) custom console photos for a pickup with a stick-shift...

ast123 said:You're a volunteer what exactly?
paladin said:with the Sheriff's Office. We get free training and certifications (such as radar) and work with the deputies. All the way up to a POST firearms academy, and then to a full reserve peace officer status. We wear the same uniform and do practically the same things. We just don't get paid; The program is pretty awesome, we even have volunteers as flight officers in our birds.
I'm going to guess he's a posse member. Maricopa County Sheriff's Possecoopers said:A reserve officer/deputy essentially?

Basically a program that increases the number of units on duty. They have everything from DUI enforcement to aviation to S&R to medical rescue. The posse members receive POST certified training to increase their skills. Some may carry firearms(I expect most do), but to do so requires to have taken the POST firearms portion. I read up on them a while back and read that the difference between a posse member and a reserve officer is that a reserve is licensed by the state POST wise and a posse member is not, therefore they are not paid. I think most expenses, such as uniforms, duty equipment, and even vehicles are paid for by the posse member himself. I'm going to guess that after a posse member completes all available POST training they can they can be licensed as a reserve.
Great program, great people. There are a few posse members on the forum. The MCSO sheriff had posse members patrolling schools after Sandy Hook, if I remember right.
Paladin, feel free to correct anything I may have said that's incorrect!
Oh, and I'm very jealous of Paladin's car. Such a bad ass set up,I want it! Maybe I'll have to start living in Scottsdale full time, not just whenever I get bored up in ND.

jws926 said:I thought the posse members drove the county vehicles?, to add what you already said, the posse members also patrol all the malls in the county during the Christmas time, I forget when if that start, if its in Nov, or Dec, MCSO also patrols Sun City, which is one of the valleys retirement citys, and has no LE , now I bring that up because I know at one time, alot of retirees volunteered and did what I think was/is a citizens patrol, or maybe they are part of the posse , I am not sure, but they drove fully marked PPVs, with R/B lighting, I dont think they were armed, and, I could be wrong too
Paladin, did you take those pics at one of the district stations?, just curious, I live only a few miles from one from one of them
