Rule change?

What the?

Storage told me I could put lawnmowers and other small engines in there (some groundkeeping spots work out of storage spots).

In today's world, I figured a 2.6l was a small engine. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" />

Funny thing is, it was cheaper to get a slightly larger storage unit for my stuff + Isuzu (the ultimate in covered parking!) than it was for a small storage area and "open, uncovered parking" in the same storage area.

Yeah, yeah, you had me going after the 2nd time you swore it was true.

And we've now confirmed that
1. I'm anal enough to back-calculate across two seperate time zones.
2. Given a tiny thread, I'll run and pull production run numbers for all makes and models of a vehicle you didn't even look at anyway.

You make this with a bigger backside? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/butwiggle.gif" alt="" />

And now that the truth came out, I think this is what we're trying to say:

Tell me about it. California law says I need current registration and proof of insurance -- if I had current registration, I'd be driving the dang thing! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

I only fibbed in the first post. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/pfft.gif" alt="" /> Everything that I confirmed was true, and there's probably some nice fella with a 5-window Deuce telling his wife about the nut-job 4-wheeler he bumped into at the gas station -- guess that makes me an April Fool. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rodent.gif" alt="" />

Glad I'm in good company. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Or there is a post on some hot rod resto board that starts out with:

"I was at the gas station fillin' up the 5-window when this ugly looking 4x4 came in. We got to talkin' and I decided that I was tired of the shiny paint chrome world and 4-wheelin' looked pretty fun. So I tradeded the 5-window..."

I'm not the fastest Amigo at the stock car race, but do I understand this correctly that even to put a vehicle in locked up, undriven storage you need to have current registration and proof of insurance?

Remember, as beautifule as NorCal is (....and as much as I love to visit...), you still live in CommieFornia, so this is somewhat believeable.

Sort of, yeah. If you're not going to drive it, you still have to file a "certificate of non-operation". And yes, there's a fee associated with it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" />

Sheesh, thats nothin, most states you need to do that...

In Hawaii, if you don't have good safety inspection and registration, your car's not gonna last very long on the street...

Sitting on the street...well, if it's not in your driveway, they can probably go for it.

But this was inside a storage unit; sort of like being in your garage and not taking it on the street. If it's not on the road (and especially not even moving or being started), it's not (in my opinion) the goverment's business if it passes emissions, has a "safe to drive" inspection, or has a current "permission to be on the roads" tag--you're not on the road!

Body Damage is Cool
Everybody has emissions (especially depending on what you eat!!), you don't have emissions regulations.
