The only thing I like about Pa is that they don't use salt and there's no sales tax.

***** this crap pisses me off. What a waste of time and resources. What the hell is the point of regulating how well someone's wiper blades work? They're not your parents. You're an adult and it's up to you to change your blades and make sure they work for you. Worthless legislation.

If I lived in a state that had these BS inspections I would have a million dollars in fines or my car impounded I'm sure.

haha lol i bet... though your car is clean and looks fine to me :)

whats all included in the inspection? i bought my car new so i didnt have to go through all the inspection every year

here are all PA inspection regulations lol though your in Coco...

who told you they don't use salt? :eh:
They use SOOO much salt that my car is not white, but SUPER white lol...
if you have black can, you'll have to wash it every day lol.

No sales tax? :thinking: hmmm i wish there wasn't any, we do have sale tax, 6% though we don't have sale tax when you buy things online, but otherwise you have tax on everything except food.

should had asked them for a printout :run:

so you have to go back to the same place to get another inspection? :crazyrun:

they gave me a print out, I threw that piece of paper away lol. Yes, I have to go back and show them my stock bulbs that I put it in.

Though I have my mom's print out (we did both cars at the same time) and her's is the same situation. Needs stock bulbs (since I put HIDs in her Highlander) and new wiper blades, and hers would cost $109

Come down to GA and live in my area - NO smog, NO inspection...run your car as loud as you want as funky as you want.

We got more important things to do than worry about inspecting cars...geez.

damn, thats ridiculous. thank God theres not inspections in Florida. I hate firestone, any one of those shops you go to just try to rape you, no matter what it is.oh, and if I had aftermarket lug nuts, I'd b*tch them out hardcore! if you had the option of taking it somewhere else to get inspected, I would have laughed at the guy when he said you need to replace the HIDs and brand new wiper blades, thats just pure bs

Plus I hate giving away my car to a mechanic or shop, then it just doesn't feel right after I get it back and I do EVERYTHING on my car myself lol... don't trust anyone with it, except my dad and bro :)
