If the donor engine comes with all required emissions equipment from that year, then it’s legal.  You can even get a waiver in California doing such a thing.  

How did anyone avoid jail time from breaking the Clean Air Act?

Hill is an all-star player, a Superbowl winner, and one of the fastest receivers in the history of the league, but none of that matters when you’re facing a squad of half a dozen of Miami Dade’s finest.

To most cops, the worst crime of all is “contempt of cop.” If you don’t do exactly what they say, immediately, you’re a criminal and they’re entitled to do whatever they want to you.

My cousin left a large police force because they couldn’t deal with the corrupt, lazy or outright racist POSs that come with the job. The way some Officers talked was too much and they needed to leave for their safety (both mental and potentially physical since they couldn’t trust a few to have their back!)

He opted to pay the asshole tax.

A great start. I hope they go after very shop in the country that did this kind of thing. We could probavbly wipe out the National Deficit if they just got every shop in Florida, South Carolina and Georgia.

Now build a car on the same platform at the same price.  These tall riding vehicles are so yesterday.

You are parroting American preconceived notions. Fiat does quite well on the sales and reputation end in Europe, South America and other global locations. If it was as bad as some people parrot, they wouldn’t be around after 125 years.

I actually live in a city, and clearly charging isn't an issue since I see more and more EVs on the street everyday.

Venture capitalists of that era wanted long term growth and stability, seeing your examples. Today’s equity bandits are in for a quick payout, end results be damned. But you already knew that.

Oh, he nailed it.  Why are you a corporate bootlicker?

You mean the place filed up with a bunch of racist Nazi fucks, aka trumpers. 

Aw jeez, sad to see Autoblog turn into yet another VC zombie site.”

The biggest problem at Autoblog was that the commentariat was primarily comprised of aging tRumpy boomer morons, always eager to show what monumental pieces of shit they were. ANY article relating to crime would generate a bunch of predictable racism...”tHoSe PEopLE come here and blah blah blah...” or “tHAt’S whAt…

Vulture Capitalism will ruin everything good before we kill it off. 

We aren’t where? The goal posts for EV’s constantly move, so we’re never going to get to wherever this magical “there” is. If you don’t like EV’s, just say you don’t like EV’s.
