C.A.R.B. has pretty much been the catalyst (haha, a pun) for every piece of FEDERAL air-quality legislation enacted. Complain if you must, but if there is even an ounce of "green" in your soul....................

Of course I fondly remember the good old days when I could pop the hood of a car and actually work on the damned thing myself.

$ounds like some manufacturer got together with local CA politician$, and thought up new ways to obtain more $$$ from car lovers! In case you didn't know, there are only two types of politician$: The bad and the wor$e!

Yeah, I know, necessary evils of modern life. I've seen the smog at Tokyo, Mexico City & other metro' areas, and cats' are necessary. It's just that politician$ and manufacturer$ keep stuffing their bank accounts on us!

The people responsible for all the legislation similar to this goat-f#$k must be forced to read, Clockwork Orange-style, a book entitled "Unintended Consequenses." They will receive their just rewards.
