What? Well it's been present on my past 2 Audis in CT and NY, maybe it's new to the rest of the US?

Default I'm sure our sleazy Dem and Rep bureaucrats would like to charge it on used cars too...

That way they could really stick it to us. Of course, they would be exempt through some special loophole designed especially for them.

Funny, I was also thinking lawmakers would exempt themselves but you beat me to it.

Default lol - what gets me is how they think it's fair to only apply it to cars (not trucks)

and also why they charge "us" directly when it's the manufacturer that isn't in "compliance." Just a strange law.
