How long until car modifications are outlawed and reserved for overpriced proprietary mechanics shops?
- GrayTextIsTruth 7y agoHow long until low-tech cars are outlawed?
- PorterDuff 7y agoBetween the need for expensive training and diagnostic equipment, and the ever-widening view of things that are .gov mandated and covered under smog or safety laws including spare parts sourcing, we are largely there. I'll counter. In a world of electric cars (which I'm in favor of), how long until the politically well-connected emissions testing industry becomes repurposed into mandatory safety inspections at the same or higher price?
