Damn! I glad I dont live in Cali anymore! At least We
can visit or live there for up to 6 months without
having to register our Tiico Vanagons. When I moved to
California, I didnt register my Toyota for a full
year(untill I got a fixit ticket) and THEN i had to
pay an "Environmental Impact fee" which was like
$500!!...That AND pay something like %30 of the book
value of the vehicle EACH YEAR which averaged $300
bucks per year for a truck worth 6 grand.
Oh well, God speed to Peter, i hope he can convince
CARB.
