Title: Emissions Sticker on an 848 Post by: sugarcrook on June 27, 2008, 01:40:56 PM So I've been getting bent over by the DMV for the past two days for various reasons, but the one stumbling block I still have to deal with is a visual inspection of the 848's emissions sticker. According to the owner's manual, it's under the gas tank - not an ideal location for a visual inspection. How can I get to it in order to display the sticker to the make the beast with two backsing harpies at the DMV?

What info are they looking for? Or more importantly, why? Title: Re: Emissions Sticker on an 848 Post by: sugarcrook on June 27, 2008, 04:42:01 PM They have to see the stickers, which are inconveniently located under the tank.
Whenever you bring a vehicle into Cali they have to see the federal VIN sticker and the emissions crap. I called DNA and they emailed me a letter stating the 848 was certified in 50 states, but it had to get sent to Sac to make sure it's "the right thing". Overall it's a huge mess and I'm thinking about just moving to Reno.

I hear the housing's cheaper there: (http://aphs.worldnomads.com/axerati/6087/P1030145.jpg) And the law enforcement's pretty good: (http://blogs.tampabay.com/juice/images/2007/11/12/reno911.jpg) Title: Re: Emissions Sticker on an 848 Post by: sugarcrook on June 28, 2008, 08:55:58 AM Living in a trailer for no state income tax sounds almost sounds compelling.

Taxes are the price we pay for civilization :) ...and that's especially true when you think about living here vs. Reno ;D Title: Re: Emissions Sticker on an 848 Post by: Desmostro on June 28, 2008, 05:32:17 PM I hear the housing's cheaper there: (http://aphs.worldnomads.com/axerati/6087/P1030145.jpg) And the law enforcement's pretty good: (http://blogs.tampabay.com/juice/images/2007/11/12/reno911.jpg) [laugh] All of Oregon has no sales tax + its civilized ... er... some of it.

There are some nice parts of Portland. But I wouldn't want to live in a city with perpetual 10% unemployment.
