They did a survey like that with boats. Then extrapolated data to come up with the emissions law we have for boatd now. So they can fup anything. The boat one ended up with more boats and hours than exist but didn't care just made rules for us peon's

The boat emission requirements are a result of the USEPA rules and are the same nationwide.

CA will NEVER understand that the very reason these Liberals have any money at all is because were earning it for them. Our employees are earning it for them.

If we leave then who is left to make money and pay taxes?

We recreate with our classic cars, boats, airplanes etc, all things we have purchased with our own money and pay you extortion taxes so you have money.

I already suffered the loss of my business trucks because of CARB. You know that thing called "A right to free Enterprise" is always in question.

Well, since Colorado is trying to become California of the east, politicians (fucking liberal transplants) are looking at banning gas powered lawn equipment. Including lawn mowers.


Guess in a couple years we can look forward to classic vehicles being banned next. Boulder & Denver will be the first.

I dare ya, come and take it!!!

My neighbor down the street has been driving his Willy's gasser around. Healthy Blown Hemi, open fender headers, not a catalytic converter in sight.

Another friend drive his turbocharged 6liter LS powered S10 weekly. Again no cats, mufflers, or harassment from over zealous government assholes!

Fuck California!

This song is literally becoming reality....


My uncle has a country place
That no one knows about
He says it used to be a farm
Before the Motor Law
And on Sundays I elude the eyes
And hop the Turbine Freight
To far outside the Wire
Where my white-haired uncle waits
Jump to the ground
As the Turbo slows to cross the borderline
Run like the wind
As excitement shivers up and down my spine
Down in his barn
My uncle preserved for me an old machine
For fifty odd years
To keep it as new has been his dearest dream
I strip away the old debris
That hides a shining car
A brilliant red Barchetta
From a better vanished time

I fire up the willing engine
Responding with a roar
Tires spitting gravel
I commit my weekly crime
Wind
In my hair
Shifting and drifting
Mechanical music
Adrenaline surge
Well-weathered leather
Hot metal and oil
The scented country air
Sunlight on chrome
The blur of the landscape
Every nerve aware
Suddenly ahead of me
Across the mountainside
A gleaming alloy air car
Shoots towards me, two lanes wide
I spin around with shrieking tires
To run the deadly race
Go screaming through the valley
As another joins the chase
Drive like the wind
Straining the limits of machine and man
Laughing out loud with fear and hope
I've got a desperate plan
At the one-lane bridge
I leave the giants stranded at the riverside
Race back to the farm
To dream with my uncle at the fireside

One of my favorite songs!

That’s no different than here in Cali. (For now)

I'm sure it would never happen but I'd love to see Brian Jones elected as California governor.
I watched a video yesterday about the homeless bio waste and pollution running into the storm drains and dumping at some of the most populated beach areas in Cal. So f ed up. The amount of used needles and human waste is mine boggling. On another f ed up note last week when I was beaching my schiada in the channel on Saturday I hopped off the bow and missed stepping on a used needle in the sand by a couple inches.

I just don't see that happening..
Think about all the older cars in California.. . Not just registration but car shows revenue hotels restaurants fun raiser events big money will be lost


Do you really think they care about this? They will just raise your taxes more to make up for it

Wait until they restrict/ban power boats. There's no end to this. Newsome, the mover/shaker of far left liberalism, is debating DeSantis in November and Newsome hasn't announced his candidacy yet. The leftist main stream media is now starting to attack Biden and the far left is looking for a replacement. Could this debate be a trial run to find a Biden replacement. One state down, forty-nine to go.

Don't know how many of you follow the SEMA Action Network and their efforts to get ahead of garbage like this. I get their notifications from time to time and just found another one this morning. I'll post the link here if anyone is interested.

CARB has more power than the CA government and yet not 1 board member is elected.
Its a total scam and used to push an agenda without any checks and balances from the citizens

They have to keep coming up with new ideas to keep their positions relevant. If there is nothing for them to do, then the people don't need them. So they continuously come up with new regulations to justify they are needed.

Yes. We have had a Pro 2A Sheriff in Sacramento for years and now have a pro 2A Democrat for a Sheriff who has pledged to continue the CCW process and streamline it further. We have 12 California Republicans in the US House of Representatives which gave us the majority. Including Tom Mc Clintock from my former and soon to be present county. Our vote absolutely counts. If we had given up, the democrats would be running both the House and the Senate.

I really don't understand how the big 3 big oil and anyone in the automotive business is not fighting back. GM rolled right over when this was proposed
