Just more steps toward socialism.
Might want to look up the definition of socialism before throwing that word around. This has zero to do with what socialism actually is.

Here’s a hint: socialism at its roots is shared wealth and common, public ownership. Has zippola to do with restricting tunes that defeat emissions standards. Government entity overreach? Yeah probably. Let the courts decide that. Socialism, nope.

The definition of words changes over time, check out the word decimate for example.

I ve had Cobb tune on my WRX and have many other custom tunes. I ve always gotten better MPGs after the tune, LOL. (and of coarse better performance). Wonder if they figured that into their " more pollution" equation ?

Just a tax grab.

The big OEMs pay billions in non compliance fines annually ....part of the reason cars are more expensive now and why 100% EV companies had survived on selling BNs in Green credits to other OEs. ( Not worth as much now that they rolled out own).

I have to use new activated carbon cabin filter every three months to block noxious and smelly emissions from commercial trucks incl pick ups, old passenger cars, poorly maintained vehicles and infrequent tuned car with cats removed.

Any progressive and selective targeted tax regime is a socialist nation. No tax or low flat tax is capitalist free market.

I would guess because they don't take into account EVs are powered by Cole

So True, but so many cannot connect the DOTS. Sad

I love the smell of race fuel in the morning.

That's because it is the "Squirrel" Look over their not here. Actually most people who drive EVs don't realize the electricity used to charge their EVs most likely come from a Coal Firing Plant. And that the Lithium Ion batteries Are catagorized as "Extremly Hazardous" to our environment. Kinda Daaaaaaa!!

Unelected people are making law. That is never a good thing.

I asked my rep about it and get a deer in headlights look and "nothing I can do about it"

Why do we keep electing these same incompetent people?

It is 100% their job to make law and over see agencies.

DO not confuse this comment with politics. I blame every elected person for this fiasco we have today.

Unless you think Co2 is a pollutant (it is not) Coal is cleaner than just about any fuel due to the scrubbers we use.

All EV's do is trade where the pollution is released.
