I'll probably die of old age before it happens, but I have thought how it would be fun to drive the XJ to say California to see the redwoods, or to Area 51 to take the tour.

My question is this. What happens when I drive from Texas, a state that believes that YOU are smart enough to do what should and shouldn't be done to your vehicle (for the most part) to a state like California who wants to regulate your ability to expell methan in the privacy of your own car.

Does CHiPs pull you over and tell you to add mud flaps?
