WA State proposed engine displacement tax
 
Get ready to be raped if you live in Washington state. They are proposing and engine displacement tax as well as a tax on co2 emissions per mile. With just the displacement tax alone for my two cars each year it would be $225 for the 300SD and $400 for my 63 T-bird.

If you live in Washington State contact your state reps and urge them to kill this!!!!

Don't they do emissions at idle and then 3000rpm constant load? It's still very possible to pass emissions and have an 11sec turbo car.

co2 emissions "per mile" meaning they're going to put a box in your car, and keep track of either you mileage or how much gas you buy

theres no way they are going to put a box in all the millions of cars in WA to keep track of gas mileage.
