It's all over youtube and the web. EPA is trying to make many mods illegal. He's Scotty's video on it.
Cheers

being "allowed" to drive your car - modified or not - ( tax by mile proposal? ) will soon become a thing of the past. sooner rather than "later". i promise.

full spectrum dominance. "they're" not just after "your car". laugh or *smh* at what remains of your leisure. you'll soon "see".

He is the U.S. Transportation Secretary and recently proposed the "tax per mile" option, no? as i said, you'll see. also our national borders are 100% secure and non porous.

in other news. i removed my old inoperable cdr 23 5 disc changer for weight savings - carry on, as you will lol

No bites on my exhaust - so did the logical thing and lowered the price. Just thought you all should know!

Happy Friday, gents!

My 911 gets the best MPG of all the cars I've had in a long time. There's no regulation on big trucks, my f250 gets like 15mpg. There not gonna do away with big trucks any time soon. The new secretary was just interviewed saying oil is not going away any time soon.

From the link below: "The United Kingdom will ban the sale of new combustion-engine vehicles by 2030, Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced today. It will also ban the sale of new hybrid cars by 2035. Johnson made the announcement tonight as part of a new ten-point plan for a “green industrial revolution.” (my bold)

https://www.theverge.com/2020/11/17/...-electric-cars

Although on a different timetable, this is the plan that will (unfortunately) eventfully be implemented in the United States.

Anyone considered switching their 996 Turbo from gasoline powered to coal powered (electric engine)? I'm sure this will be a modification thread here on this forum sooner rather than later.

I personally would never do this modification to my 996 Turbo (so would not need to post that modification here in this thread "What did you do to your 996 TT today?".) When we are forced to drive only EVs I'll just convert the 996 Turbo stall in my garage into a museum housing that internal combustion work of art.
