California permitted the vehicles to be sold AND licensed. THEY are responsible.

I wonder why California is always the laughing stock of the nation.

Maybe that's why so many new immigrants to the US, not to mention people moving from one state to another, are choosing to move to New Jersey rather than California.

Or not.

If I won the lottery, I would move to Jersey. I mean, who wouldn't want to put up with the smell, toxic dumps, and the gregarious down to earth people that live there. Who am I kidding.

Yeah, Jersey rocks, Cali sucks. After all, if Jersey was a country, it would have the world's 6th largest economy (or is it 5th now)? Oops, nope, that's California. Well, Jersey does host the world's premier center of technical innovation, Silicon Valley, rather than that laughingstock, California. Errr, okay, maybe not.

Hey at least New Jersey has the Mob and a governor who resigned for a gay affair with one of his employees! California can't match that!

Right on.

"Since he announced last week that he's gay, outgoing New Jersey Governor Jim McGreevey's approval ratings actually went up two points. It went from 43 to 45 percent. Which means, at that rate, he's only got to announce he's gay 27 and a half more times." —Jimmy Kimmel

There's that thread drift again with the common theme of the personal details of one who doesn't even own an MB anymore.

I sense a conspiracy.

Since California licensed those vehicles, and still continues to accept tax revenue in the form of registration fees, fuel taxes, sales taxes and anything else in the way of accepting money coming into the public coffers from said automobiles, there is nothing they can say.

And with just a few keystrokes, we're back on topic.

I also do agree that since California licensed those vehicles, and still continues to accept tax revenue in the form of registration fees, fuel taxes, sales taxes and anything else in the way of accepting money coming into the public coffers from said automobiles, there is nothing they can say.

Isn't this OPEN DISCUSSION? Where does it state that the prerequisite to posting here is the ownership of an MB?

It's funny that you would single me out when there are others...
