Haven't had my Z inspected since 2007 when at the state inspection station the fat POS inspector almost ripped the steering column out of the car trying to get his fat a** out of the car after doing a rolling brake test. But lately I've been hearing that police have been towing and impounding cars for stupid minor infractions, easy money I guess.
So I got nervous I took it this time to a private inspection facility.(gas station)
I made an appt. last Saturday morning. The owner was so impressed with the Z, he said he never seen one let alone having to inspect it. He took really great care with it. The only thing he checked aside from the proper credentials was the emissions. The test consisted of checking it at idle and then at 2000 rpm for 20 seconds. It passed with flying colors, he said the emissions were really super clean and low based on the limits for the year of the car. He also cleaned the old sticker off the car entirely before putting on the new sticker. Normally they charge $75 but only charged me $50. ( " It pays to be the KING "
) Plus the sticker is good for 2 yrs. This guy was great I couldn't thank him enough especially for the care he took inspecting it.
Now last year New Jersey MV sends me a letter stating They now don't require my 2500 HD Duramax pick-up to be inspected anymore they say it is self inspected. I didn't believe them so I took it to a state inspection station. When I got in line they came over scraped my old sticker off , told me to get out of line and don't come back. Go fiqure? Now when I drive to work every day I 'm constantly looking over my shoulder just waitng to get stopped.
