Didn't CA. want to crush all cars older than twenty years? Another unenforceable law.

Sorry-my post was harsh.

If they change the proposal slightly this can work:

You can own a black car only if you drive with the AC off-or-AT NIGHT!

The place where actors can rule the state...

I should talk, we've got a blind guy who's also dumb.

Do you mean to imply that Patterson is not a rocket scientist?

There is something in the water in Albany that makes normal people lose all sight of common sense when they get elected there......

At least the water doesn't have a negative effect on their extra-marital sex lives.

Yea, but look at the bright side. No more BLACK Helicopters. Agents must dress in white.

Default Black paint

So how many Cobras use AC? In the winter, when the sun is out, BLACK works well to heat autos.

Black also radiates heat the fastest of any color so you don't want to be stuck somewhere cold at night with a black car. Maybe a chameleon, during cold periods, black during the day to absorb the heat, and white at night to cut down the heat radiation the other way around during hot spells.

You obviously have never stepped on concrete in the hot CA sun. You won't notice the concrete sidewalk any cooler than the asphalt street pavement!

Just drive in the shade only...

BTW, the moment you drive a car longer (more years) than it's expected life-time, you should actually considered to be a recycler and get a tax cut.
The same applies if you rebuild an engine and not throw it away.

You all read "Dust to Dust"?

Hey, Black is beautiful, no matter what color you might want to call it.

How about calling it Calif-nuancepitch SR, (SR Solar Reflective). Some kind of paint that you mix with reclaimed water from your toilet and applied to the surface with recycled baby diapers by an x CEO or politician.

I'm glad I live in the "wild West"!
