    Are you saying you need tire pressure sensor system and backup camera to pass state inspection in Vermont?

    Gotcha. at work they are talking about retrofitting tpms on vehicles that do not have it. God forbid the driver has to check the tires before he heads out.

    Yes 1 item $500 extra in cost of vehicle because a $3 tire pressure gauge is complicated :picard:

    Not only that It was the insurance companies that mandated the back up cameras. While hardly anybody gets hurt in reverse; are usually 5 mile an hour bumps they cost insurance companies a lot of money. So now your vehicle not only needs a back up camera but a whole bunch of extra technology in the front so you can not be able to use a mirror!

    Amazing to see even the cement work all disappeared. Just a shadow of the roadwork showing now.

    Horkn , Glad your fur friend is acting better. I hope you can keep some of that pain med on hand to help him through some of the rough days. When the rough days are more than the bad days, you will know it is time.

    We are being nudged into getting hybrid cars. Nothing speaks louder to us than $$$$. Once that is dominate, we will be charged a millage tax to pay for road, bridges, etc.

    And just imagine what is going to happen with electric! The companies are going to need to do some big time building and rates will skyrocket.
