And banned wood burning fireplaces, too, I think. At least they were talking about it.

Exactly.

These people would murder us in our beds if they thought they could get away with it.

Why do you think they are trying to take our guns away?

Just remember, children, every genocide was preceded by a gun grab.

Is this a real news site? I doubt it. All of the "About" links at the bottom of the home page go back to the home page, and none of the stories are attributed.

They stole this story, word for word, from the New York Times.

I just don’t see how they can legally unilaterally do this but they are.

It will be interesting to see an entire freeway of cars needing charged all at once.

The heart and soul of hot-rodding was and still is in Southern California. Not sure how this will go over there.

this will result in increased cost for used cars which will have a negative affect on the lower half on income earners and they exist in much higher numbers than the affluent, the EV buyers. This, of course, results in further division of the people of the nation and increased finger pointing, distrust and violence. And the people will begin reading the preamble of the US Constitution.

Australian banks announced this week they will cease making loans on gasoline or diesel vehicles. Is that next here??

Dear Leftist Californians,

Texas officially reached full capacity last Tuesday. If you had plans to move here, unfortunately there’s no more room. We looked everywhere, asked around, and it’s full occupancy.

We kindly suggest you consider one of the many blue cities that welcome all kinds of immigrants - Mexicans, Guatemalans, Middle Eastern Terrorists and even occasionally other Americans.

You can pay high taxes, enjoy high crime, 24/7 woke policy, and maybe even shave a few degrees off the global warming thingy. You do want to save the planet right?

You’ll fit right in.

Just don’t come here.

Sincerely, Texas

re: “The electrical demand will require the state to permit building a few nuclear power plants.”

Which is about a close to zero emissions as you can get.

Or CA will survive on used cars like Cuba.

My situation was right out of the CARB and DMV procedures and rules. It is to keep non-CA emmissions compliant cars out of CA. Has been going on for years.

One thing I found out was that if I tried to register a motorcycle with some kind of problem (non-compliance or ?, can’t remember), that VIN would be flagged, and that motorcycle could Never be registered in CA.

Of course the “elite” will be exempt. Good luck keeping the sports stars, Hollywood losers and political class to give up their rides.

I believe this is the plan.

No plan for unintended consequences. Let’s just say that CA does go all electric (not a chance), there will be no need for the number of gas stations currently operating.

In short order, drivers of gasoline powered cars will be in the same situation that EV drivers experience. Travel plans will need to be made with the locations of gas stations in mind.

It will also hurt tourism as out of state drivers will stay away for the reason stated above.

The folks making these decisions couldn’t pour water out of boot with instructions written on the heel.

I know they are currently getting away with forbidding older diesel trucks from even entering CA.
I really do not think they have that power under the interstate commerce clause, but it seems no one is calling them out on it.
I escaped Kali-fornicate-ya in 1989.
NOTHING would entice me to return.
Sadly, every sane person who flees makes it that much harder on those who remain.

= = =

I believe it is Emissions related.

I have a friend in CA, with a Peterbuilt, parked for the last few years. Runs fine. To renew his liscence, he would have to have $8K of work/mods done to it. Even then I don’t know if he could get the cool “California Clean Idle” sticker.

What you are missing -

Online search:
California’s 5-minute Idling Rules are Enforced Know the rules and your options Trucks can idle for 5 minutes everywhere in California. Any law enforcement department, including air districts and CARB, can fine a 10,000 pound or greater truck owner and driver up to $1000 per day for illegal idling (13 CCR 2480 & 2485).

“Newsflash, new auto dealer mega-malls to open just over the borders in late 2034!”

Hate to burst your bubble (and a few others) but all the automakers have already gone all electric battery crap by then. Doesn’t matter where you live

I bought new cars with real motors to last me till the end good luck to the rest of you

Nah, that is not actually going to happen.
Cannot repeal the laws of physics or consumer demand.
EV’s are literally impossible to rely on where I live.
I have twelve “Classic” cars, I will never run out of ICE cars.
If they ban gas (Not happening) I will make one to run on Steam.
