Another reason to love N. Colorado

Woooohooooo.


I had heard a rumor from my neighbor that Larimer County here in CO has decided to eliminate emissions on all gas powered vehicles. So I call up the DMV in Loveland and sure enough.... the only engines that need to get tested are Diesels. I am so farking happy right now. I was affarid I was going to have to dump another couple of hundred bucks into my pig inorder to get her to pass. But not any more bitches. The lady at the DMV said all I need to do is bring in my title and drivers lisence and I can pick up my tags.

Did I say I love Northern Colorado? Because I do.


But don't you guys miss read my post and start all moving here. Colorado is stinky, ugly, full of hippies and covered in snow. Dont come it sucks.

In some parts of Colorado we have never had emissions!
I guess that is no longer a selling point for when I try to sell my house though, huh?
BUT, my insurance is TONS cheaper than most of you also!

Wow, great news. If only the rest of the world got on board and dumped emission testing.

There's no testing here in Delta County either, which is nice on the wallet, but sucks when you are following a huge Ford with straight pipes. ackkk If it came down to choosing clean air or no emissions testing...I gotta say I'd take the clean air..I guess when you only have 30,ooo people in the entire county, it's a non issue..

emissions testing is done on all gasonline engine vehicles newer than 1975 (except for the strictly off-road types) here in California.

Diesels are exempt though...for whatever reason



Northern Colorado huh?


hmmmm.....NorCoDoug...has a nice ring to it...







funny thing...I was lookin' on the net at a house Larimer County just yesterday...

When I called yesterday they said the only vehicles that needed to be tested were diesels. But your 45 may be old enough that you dont have to do it.
