emissions question
k my state doesnt have emissions laws but if i go to college in a state that does have emissions will my truck have to comply? i wouldnt be claiming residence or titling it there so it shouldnt matter right?? i just wanna be sure, its easier to ask than have a cop teach me the hard way.
also, does colorado have emissions testing/laws?

I know that in California you must register any vehicle after a certain number of days and you have to pay a fee and smog test it.(it changed recently, can't remmember how many days) You might want to look it up on the state website.

Each state varies, I would call ahead and find out.......
when I was in the service my ride was still required to be tested even though it was still titled in my home state...........

California has, like I said before, "too many" laws.
I can't remember but I think it is like three weeks to pay up out there. I was recently in Newport Beach for 9 months and a buddy of mine got one of those tickets. He got out of it because there is no real way to tell how long he was there or going to be there. I was raised in Long Beach 30 years ago and can tell you one thing. That state has changed. It use to be a real "free" state. Now the darn beaches close at 10pm. I couldn't believe it!! Makes me kinda want the old San Andres fault to split by about 300 miles. My truck is waay cleaner than it was from the factory but there is no way I could pass emissions. |

C10,
I THINK you've hit the nail on the head. You won't be claiming residency. This implies that your license and vehicles will still be registered in your state of residence. Of course, I'm no lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that if you can get away with the residency thing, you will be set. Brian |

If you don't claim residency your tuition is higher too.
