Reply to "More Stupid Bills"

I had to check my calendar to make sure it wasn't April 1

quote:
(xxi) DeTomaso Pantera, DeLorean, or Bugatti Veyron


Wierd company the Pantera keeps! My buddy has a DeLorean, and I'm sure this is the last list he'd expect to see it on (it has a 130hp 2.8L PVR motor)

quote:
(I) A motorcycle of larger than 200 cc displacement.


I don't think 200 cc's is enough to displace the typical Harley driver. So it won't just be the big 3 going out of business if this were to become reality.

quote:
(vi) Stickers, decals, artwork, or graphics such as are typically found on racing vehicles;


Does this mean that we'll see an end to those cartoon characters p**ing on the logos of various competitive brands (because brand logos would typically be seen on race cars)? - Maybe there's some good in here after all?

quote:
(3) Paragraph (1) shall not apply to any vehicle that--
`(A) is manually started by a crank;
`(B) has been rendered permanently inoperable; or
`(C) is an antique auto.'.


What's the definition of 'Antique' - if it's 25 years, then most Panteras are safe.

I'm going to start a business fabricating hand cranks that sit next to the ignition key - you'll need to turn it before turning the key or the car won't start - I'm off to the patent office!
