It just dawned on me - Tesla’s are exempt from all emission testing all over the entire country for obvious reasons.

Ever see the video of a kid that just got a Tesla and at a gas station trying to figure where the gas goes? Then he takes out his phone and probably googles it and gets pissed lol.

So long as there’s totaled Camaros, Trans Ams, G8 GXPs, Mustangs, and heck old Chevy and Ford trucks in junkyards, I can totally see this becoming someone’s business.

Heck maybe GM and Ford can keep their racing and crate engine divisions running.

There’s a whole new opportunity here!
