NJ to ban gasoline powered cars

Wouldn't surprise me that one of these days Ca.& NJ make you buy a license to leave the house!

Hopefully, by 2035 I'll be long gone from the armpit of the world. Not sure if my kids will be able to escape. My daughter-in-laws family is here so my son is probably stuck. My daughter's fiance isn't from NJ, so she has a chance of getting out.

NJ has always followed Ca. I'm in the paint business. New EPA rules that regulate paints always started in CA then a few years later NJ followed suit.
Those regulations ruined a lot of good products that can't be produced anymore. So the car ban doesn't surprise me. F Murphy though !!!!
 
New Jersey doesn't allow car owners to pump their own gas?

How many gas station attendants will be out of a job? Can they learn to code?
This has been a law for decades. I remember goin down to Mopars at E-town and got out to get gas and when I touched the pump I got yelled at saying I can't pump my fuel and how much would I like... Less work for me and the gas is usually cheaper than here in Pa...
 
Wake up guys. Yes CA started this whole mess with our idiot governor but there’s also a bill being legislated right now that calls for the exact same thing NATIONALLY. I just read the article a couple of days ago. If these leftist wackos get in power in the senate and WH were screwed. There was a long list of the supporters all coming from the left side of the isle.
 
We used to call them pump jockeys.
There was a gas station off of Rt. 78 way back when that had all young females pumping gas. They were called "Pump Bunnies" and lot's of people paid the higher gas prices to be served by them! I must confess, I "HAD TO" stop a few times to refuel. (AHEM)!
We in NJ are very proud of the fact that in many ways, our state SUCKS, although some of us are trying to get out while we still can! However, one must realize that it is California (only) that prints on almost every product you purchase anywhere, a label that reads "This product has been found to cause Cancer by the state of California." I am not much of a wine drinker, but I wonder if it's printed on bottles of California wine? :screwy:
Here's to ya'll!
:drinks:

And, who had more experience,hmm?
 
Reminds me of another Ed story - y'all have been warned: :)

The last time I was in NJ, a bunch of years ago (80's I'm thinking), my friend in his T/A
Challenger and I in my '68 Bee stopped at one of those rest stops off the turnpike and
I got out and started getting some gas.
Dude comes out of the little shack ranting and waving his arms...
I looked at my admittedly more travelled friend like "WTF?"
He says "they pump it in this state." And then snickers...because he knows what's coming.

Dude comes over to the car and starts trying to grab the nozzle out of my hand...
that wasn't wise, his job or not.
Grabbed his wrist by the carpal area, looked him dead in the eye and said "nobody touches my
car but me.
Ever."
Very calmly...
He freezes.
I reach in my pocket and pull out $5 and stick it in his shirt pocket with my free hand.
Pointing over at the main building, I suggest it's break time and he needs to go get a Double R Bar
burger over at Roy Rogers.
He agrees...
I pay the other attendant once I'm done and we're outta there on the way to Englishtown.

I really miss those Double R Bar Burgers. Hell, I miss the old Roy Rogers restaurants...
