I'm from Long Beach, but live in Houston now and what you said is totally wrong. All you need here is liability (like everywhere else in the US). They do not require you to have any more than the bare minimum. And having been guilty of always 'buying' my smog certs in Cali, since I could never pass for some reason, that's one thing I never have to worry about having here. They don't have the smog check.

Wow. Touchy aren't we? No need to get your panties in a ruffle

Panties in a ruffle? Hardly, ***.

Was merely pointing out that I've lived in both places, and texas isnt full of cowboys and rednecks like the rest of the country thinks.

Where exactly in Ft. Worth was that? I want to see it for myself.

I've seen a couple around here on Dubs that are almost that tall.
