Uniden DFR7. Powerd by rearview mirror tap and suction cupped in-between rear view mirror and the Dome lighting. Im not a fan of the blend mount that hangs off the end of the mirror, its just annoying and in the way.

Always stopped by there when in the area!

Which one you like best...Pat's or Geno's?

I know Pat's is considered the more traditional one.

Pat's simply because I was raised on it (every winter driving down to Fort Lauderdale we stopped to Phila (parents hated flying)

Edit: memories, in the family Suburban driving down the east coast with the scent of my brothers sneakers, cheese, onion and greasy meat for 15 hours...

Honestly both are so similar and very good, pat's just chops the steak, Geno's slices it.

Strawberry soda, a freshly made cheese steak with some hot peppers is hard to beat.

Don't get me wrong, (sometimes) it taste like horse di*k, it's really hit or miss, if the bread is fresh and the steak isn't dried out (sitting on the grill) it's probably a meal I would ask for on Death Row

Advice from a guy that lived in philly. Pats & Genos is trash compared to Dalessandro's, head that way, you'll thank me later. Tiny establishment, and you literally have to yell your order through the line of people piled up as it's always packed, but damnit is that a good cheesesteak. Definitely grab some crushed hots to go ontop. One of the things I miss most of that city.

I AGREE 100% other better places around

Jim's, Steve's we could go on and on but Pats is our favorite because we've been going since 25 years+

Tasty Chopped Veal subs or Roast Pork can be had nearby but we go to pats for the grime, rude service and ghetto clientele, it's a must for us to stop no matter if it's just ok

This Kristallklar stuff is fantastic.
Multiple bug hits...lay down the fluid and no streaks...just gets the stuff off the glass. One squeezes the bottle till the top compartment fills. Then add to a gallon of what you like. I add it to RainX Bug Off. The stuff is reviewed as the top windshield wiper fluid. Of course it is German. Comes in 2 packs on Amazon.
I had to mention it for I hate a polluted windshield, and this combo is the only stuff I’ve ever found to really work.

One of the things I miss about traveling early on in my career. I had a VP who could tell me all the hot spots to try anywhere I went.

I remember "Mother's in NO...that was my first "Po-Boy".

We used to be the same way here in upstate SC. It was the "Beacon".
They even had signs posted on the other side of the country.

They said something like "Beacon-----> 2,700 miles".

Once the original owner gave it up...it just wasn't the same.
