Well thats the great thing about the military. You can claim residence in any state you wish. When I move back to Cali at the end of this month, I will be keeping my truck registered in Washington

I was arrested, that's handcuffed, in Washington State using that argument with a Bremerton Cop. The military will not back you when you go to court. They will also, if they are in the mood, check your states laws while you are sitting in your truck.

Is it true that Ca. can crush your car if you have what they call an illegal engine swap? Thats what somebody told me. He wanted to do an LS1 swap in an RX7 but was afraid of it getting crushed by the popo.

No, Not true.


be careful with the "my truck is registered in another state" defense. They will reply "it is your responsibility to know the local laws".

You know you're from California if:

1.
Your coworker has 8 body piercings and none arevisible.
2. You make over $300,000 and still can't afford a house.
3. You take a bus and are shocked at two people carrying on a conversation in English.
4.Your child's 3rd-grade teacher has purple hair, a nose ring, and is named Flower.
5.
You can't remember . . . is pot illegal?
6.You've been to a baby shower that has two mothers and a sperm donor.
7. You have a very strong opinion about where your coffee beans are grown, and you can taste the difference between Sumatran and Ethiopian.
8. You can't remember . . . is pot illegal?
9. A really great parking space can totally move you to tears.
10. Gas costs $1.00 per gallon more than anywhere else in the U.S.
11. Unlike back home, the guy sitting in Starbucks at 8:30 a.m. wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses who looks like George Clooney really IS George Clooney .
12. Your car insurance costs as much as your house payment.
13. You can't remember . . . is pot illegal?
14. It's barely sprinkling rain and there's a report on every news station: 'STORM WATCH.'
15. You pass an elementary school playground and the children are all busy with their cellphones or Ipods.
16. It's barely sprinkling rain outside, so you leave for work an hour early to avoid all the weather-related accidents.
17. HEY!!!! Is pot illegal????
18. Both you AND your dog have therapists, psychics, personal trainers and cosmetic surgeons.
19. The Terminator is your governor.
20.
If you drive illegally, they take your driver's license. If you're here illegally, they want to give you one!
Email I got the other day, I didn't read it (as usual) but this thread reminded me of it. I dug it out of my deleted folder just for you guys.
