[threlevenguy]

[E30 Reaktionär]

We got yearly inspections in PA, but i know the guy that does inspections so i pass every time ;) . Or i never get my car inspected at all, like my e30 :p .

Thanks for your help, Automotive Concepts pulled through with the inspection

The whole "green" thing is a joke anyway. Granted we should not throw our trash on the side of the highway nor should we dump used motor oil in the river but somehow I cannot buy into the notion that I should be responsible for the bad things that government and industry makes available for us to buy.

Nothing for me Skagit/Whatcom counties (NW WA) FTMFW!

Shhhhhh. Don't rock the boat, Noah.

Less this makes the radar, the better off we are.

Actually, I bet we get tailpipe sniffing within the next 5-7 years. When Hummer driving Ah-nold Schwartenegger (sp-who cares?) jumps on the "Green is cool" bandwagen, it can't be long for us little farm communities.

I wonder what he's got to say about nearly being the sole reason Hummer even entered the civilian market, anyhow?

Haha, no inspection OR emmisions for me... I win.

Ouch, that blows. We just have emissions to pass, doesn't matter if shits about to break.

That's crazy. I had a fog out once and didn't pass because it was "stock" illumination. What's ridiculous about failing inspection is that it's just more work/time for them, since you have to come back again, but pay only once. I think they're just trying to get some work out of your car when they fail you. Then it backfires on them when you do it yourself.

Thats actually standard practice. When I had that issue with the E30, the guy told me that if I took the fogs out, he could write in "N/A" under the fog light section and I could put them back in after I got the sticker.

So wait, you're a she?

I'd look in the yellow pages. You should be able to find a good OBGYN there.






















Ohh...."VIRGINIA" inspection...I'm an idiot.

The one good thing about inspections is that it reduces the number of dangerous vehicles on the road. When I moved from Virginia I realized the dangers of following some overloaded old beater truck with no brake lights that's about to fall apart.

However, I hate putting a sticker on my windshield.
