When you can't help but feel a little pride when the inspection guy can't find your nonexistent OBD-II connector, can't figure out how to open your hood because the thing broke off long ago, and how they have to get 3 people to set up and run the emissions dyno tests

When your so happy you don't live in a state that requires an emissions test so you don't need to fix you. CEL.

In ND you can do pretty much whatever you want since I know all the officers and do not drink or do drugs, in ND that's a free pass to illegal windows, no tire coverage problems, and no worries really.

Same here. Don't say much about mufflers as long as your not dumb and burning out all the time they don't say much.

No tires coverage here either. Dads tires are 12.5in wide next time he's goin 13.5 in wide. He wants bushwackers but I don't think they would look good. Lol

Man, I live in Tarrant, and that has been the main reason I've never bought anything younger than 20 or 25 before now. Classic = no emissions test.

And there are no light laws here either. Some places if you have roof lights the must be covered. That would suck.

I didn't realize there was a group of us. Shoula figured lol.

Though, I may or may not be trading the ZJ for a YJ. I consider myself lucky if I do, because I can nab another ZJ a lot cheaper than I can get a YJ on its own.
