Good. I’m outa here by 2023.

Bottom line is the Car companies will go along with whatever comes of this because they have to manufacture and sell vehicles.

Car companies manufacturing it is one thing; other states being forced to comply is another. If I live in a state that doesn't have pollution bowls like Los Angeles, who the hell are the dimwits in my state to mandate that I have California emission standards and mileage? I'd prefer to rip out that nonsense and sell the parts to a California car owner.

Let Californians run on soy oil in bamboo cars. There's no reason I can't run a diesel with a blower and twin turbos.

Is your company pulling-up stakes?

But CA, with the biggest state population, will have the most influence. Now if both Florida and Texas can coordinate on relaxed standards, that could perhaps have a good effect.

That is what I am talking about - several states coordinating their efforts to counter the actions of one state. Imagine every “Red State” joining such an effort.

I am not sure.
