    But what bothers me is when they start making laws, then correct the law, then add to that law or add another law and so on.
    Once a law is made, 'IF' you ever get hit by that law, you're in their system ... it never ends and they never let up.
    The only way out is die ... but you're in their records archives ... forever.
    You make a very good point! While I can never see me and the family moving to CO the fact that they could apply to all trucks in thier state, even passing through is where things get tough for the rest of us.

    I still think they should have to prove that my tuning and aftermarket parts were installed specifically for smoking out the general public and not performance and efficiency gains.

    They need to kill the bill.

    At least in the OP photo the truck is dangling his "truck nuts"

    That makes it legit

    Just like most laws that are passed, it is a reaction to a few idiots who ruin it for the rest of us. I like a little smoke when I get on it and Ray's @Double R Diesel tunes are great for that, nice good clean power. Don't get me wrong I like a good video of Hillary Clinton supporters getting smoked, laugh every time, but it is wrong and ends up hurting the whole community.

    I worry about passing laws against this. People should grow up and act properly. But when laws are passed, they can also be abused. When this happens, it just the opposite of the original idiot who wants to smoke some protester, prius car owner and such. AND once a law is passed, it is almost impossible to recend or not increase cost in the future by some government group that has a distaste of it. Between a rock and a hard place.

    The problem is the idiot who wants to stay a child when they are adults.
    I agree. But it can be difficult. A 5.9 cummins will never be completely smokefree.
