there will be better banners!
But the number of great ones is less than a quarter of all the ones I post. That's why at the end of the year I do a best of.
interesting 31 Cadillac that was one person's pride and joy, but will a buyer on Bring a Trailer think it's worth more than 10k? Thank you Doug!

I just learned that occasionally, Goodyear has a special selling event
It turns out, there are plenty of idiots in the California state legislature, and they were sure that they could force drivers to go electric car by 2035
and push the issue by making a law that would require no internal combustion engine vehicles would be sold in California after 2035.
This is exactly the same idiocy that passed a law that would require that only 40 or 50 mpg cars could be sold in California after 2008.
Yes, nearly 20 years ago the green morons had passed a law that was obviously decades before it's time, and had to be thrown in the dumpster when reality could no longer be avoided.
Now the federal DOT is taking California to court to get that 2035 law thrown out, based on their point of view that no state gets to set fuel economy standards.
E-ZPass transponders are phasing out. The same function can be served by a sticker, for millions of dollars less every year
Allstate got caught illegally tracking drivers through their cellphones without consent by monitoring their travel locations, trip distances, speed, acceleration, braking, phone usage and attention to the road, and tried to monetize that data to boost profit.
The Iowa House advanced a bill Monday that would allow farmers to disable the diesel exhaust fluid, or DEF, systems required by federal emissions laws.
the proposed legislation is a “farmer affordability bill” that allows producers to “repair and alter their equipment” and “remove the diesel emission systems if they so choose.”
The federal Clean Air Act requires most on-road and off-road diesel engines to have diesel exhaust fluid and systems that cause the engines to “de-rate” or slow down drastically when the fluid runs out. Wulf called the DEF systems, which help to limit the emissions of nitrogen oxides from the diesel engines, a “costly and burdensome” requirement from previous administrations. The regulation was implemented in 2010, but the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency under the Trump administration is working to modify the required derating principles.
Similarly, there is an area in California that exempts farmers from the requirement to have clean burning tractors, I was just talking to a guy about it, he's been working with atmosphere monitoring equipment for 20 years.
