California and Washington ban Chevrolet's Camaro SS and ZL1

[Richard Cranium]

Not that I'm going to buy one, but this is ridiculous! What else do you expect from the land of fruits and nuts ...


California and Washington ban Chevrolet's Camaro SS and ZL1
Their brake pads contain too much copper, which kills fish

Its ok since you can literally go steal some organic pads while doing heroine and beating up a cop while drinking a beer from a retail outlet and replace them.

Last time I checked most people dont run those cars in the river or lakes.

My Raptor and other vehicles have banned me from driving in California and Washington !

I remember actually joking about this very scenario with a co-worker back in the 80's.

 

[myk r sanchez]

Well california banned common sense over 20 years ago, so yeah...

 

[BDF6]

Wouldn't putting a Prop.65 sticker on them make everything OK?

Ok I stand corrected

 

[PRND21]

Why couldn’t GM just sell them without brake pads, or have the buyers sign an affidavit saying they promise not to use the brakes?

Before "Bad Company".

Yet you can defecate on the sidewalk and it's OK.

Having lived here well over 50 years, I gotta tell you guys that things just keep getting worse here. I'm a teacher, and you wouldn't believe some of the crazy s%^t that the powers that be keep coming up with. You all just better hope that the high taxes and high real estate prices and general craziness don't drive too many Californians to move to where you live. If they do start showing up, ask them to leave their CA ways of thinking at the border.

Not only can you unload on a side walk you can shoot up there right out in front of GOD and toss your dirty needle in the storm drain... They are nuts!

Any copper used in aviation brake linings?

They tend to frown upon aircraft on California streets as well.
