Default GO :edit: YOURSELF CALIFORNIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My tires stick out MAYBE 1" beyond my fenders! APPARENTLY according to the California Vehicle Code (CVC) that is too far and is grounds for a $76 ticket. In the last 2 years that I've had the truck and as many times as I've gotten pulled over in it, NOONE has said a damn thing about it, even when I got a ticket for parking during street sweeping, nothing about my tires. California Highway Patrol has yet to care, Port Hueneme Police Department doesn't give a , Ventura County Sheriff same...Port Hueneme Parking Enforcement on the other hand has NOTHING better to do than be a pain in my *** about an inch. I am NOT about to spend over $3,000 to get tires and rims that are within regulation because 1 sucker with a pen and a plastic badge wants to make my life a headache.


HEY CALIFORNIA

The sooner if falls into the ocean, the better. I've never seen so many Obama-stickered Prius's in my life.

Please allow me to pack up my and get out before it falls, I can't even count the things I hate about this state. The only reason I'm here is because I'm stationed here for the next 2 1/2 years.

Oxnard, I bought my washer & dryer there a year and a half ago while I was at Vandenberg. The grass is greener elsewhere. Escape when you can. A 365 to anywhere is an easy solution if you can get it. I'd kill for one, but they won't let me go.
