Perhaps if this country didn’t have a completely and utterly messed up healthcare system that costs *significantly* more than any other developed nation…then employers would be far more open and willing to hire actual workers and not these ridiculous ‘temps’.

Please tell me you see the irony in the headline?

CA emissions standards are for CA only. With other states VOLUNTARILY adopting them.

That’s exactly the “unfortunate topography” he’s talking about.

right -vs 1968, a lot better. Today - literally any car manufactured would prevent that kind of smog. In fact, literally every car manufactured with fuel injection and catalytic converters would have done it just the same. The point being, it’s at a point well past diminishing returns if there ever was a return to…

When gun owners see car guys complaining that auto policy is written by people who know nothing about cars:

*insert FCA joke here*

California Emissions needs to die. It was stupid back when, and nobody had the guts to tell Commiefornia to piss off. They have a crap ton of pollution - and it’s HARDLY to do with the cars, and more to do with their lifestyles and choices. Of course, there is a bit of unfortunate topography to go along with their…

I can send you links all day...

Gave you the data. You don’t like the answer for some bizarre reason? Seems like a “you” problem.

OH, I agree. That doesn’t stop CA from doing some nutty stuff when they are in “over-reaction” mode. I can easily see them forcing some sort of “inspection approval” regimen for customs, even as hard as it is to see how to implement.

I announced my primary state of residence in my Username.

Here in Cali, the “custom car community” is on pins-and-needles, since The Regulators For The Independent Republic of Californios (aka The Golden State) are making noises about stepping in on this one.

i did a dumb and got hurt and it's everyone's fault but mine!

This is dumb!!!

When I was looking at GTI the salesperson had to have me pull the car out of the backlot because she didn’t know how to drive a 6-speed. But her “boyfriend is going to teach” her. And when we were looking for an ‘18 Accord with a 6-speed for my girlfriend the dude at the Honda dealer said they didn’t come with manual…

No, the automatic is optional. The standard transmission with the 383 is a three speed manual that is fully synchronised on all three forward speeds

I shit you not, I had to tell my Jeep sales guy how to open the hood.
