Class 2 Sticker on the Windshield...

It seems odd to have two separate stickers for safety inspection and emissions inspection. In NC both emissions and safety are done simulataenous and tied to the vehicle registration (as well as the weight), thus, no stickers.

 

I think a safety inspection here is like $14 and emissions is $30. Only 22 counties out of 100 here require emissions.

I took the truck in for oil change and inspection, they put the stickers on like in the picture, I took it back and made them redo the stickers with new ones and kept the class 2 sticker and put in with the registration like everyone suggested, they also put in 1 quart to much oil so they had to remove that also < after all it is a tire and auto service center...lol

I'd have made them get me a fresh class 2 sticker after that act... Whoever put them on just didn't care.

What do all of these stickers represent? I see the "Class 2" is for weight i guess, what are the other two for? We don't do window stickers in NC, did away with them 10 years ago...

Inspection, emissions, and then your "tax stamp" to allow you to tow.

...and the inspections keep garbage cars off the road.  I never realized how much I appreciated PA inspections until I moved back to Illinois and have to occasionally share the road with some pretty sketchy vehicles.

Problem is, we're made to make sure our vehicles are road worthy for the roads that aren't vehicle worthy.

So in PA you can get pulled over and fined for being out of inspection if any cop you drive by notices your sticker is not current, no stickers is a great idea but how do they validate that you have a current inspection on your vehicle? I would guess only if you got pulled over and they checked your registration?

Here in NC it is all tied to the tag, i.e. license plate...officer runs the tag and the DMV status comes back (inspection, insurance, annual registration, etc.). The officer doesn't need to stop the driver to run the tag and any hits like failure to register, no insurance, no inspection give the officer RAS to stop the car.

I wish they would do that in PA.

Also in 2017 they stopped issuing stickers for the license plates and people were getting pulled over in other states for expired registration < state says you don't have to remove the stickers.

RAS < I had to look that one up..lol

Sorry, when I get to talking about stuff like that I switch to the jargon...You usually dont see officer's pulling people over for registration violations in other states...it is not really an NC violation if a PA license is expired...

There is apparently legislation that last I read (few months back) they were trying to move emissions to every 2 years and go to some combination sticker for Registration, Inspection, and Emissions. Doubt that will happen though. Someone somewhere will be upset on losing out of the $$.

Sure it is.  If you are driving a vehicle in NC, with PA plates and those plates are expired, you are driving an unregistered vehicle in NC.  Otherwise, everyone in NC could just register their vehicle once in PA, and drive around in NC without having to register their vehicles.

I better check to see if mine is in the console lol, I have had trucks off and on for the last thirty years and have never put one on any of them, I've never really thought about it. with having an emissions and inspection sticker already there I don't really want another sticker there, two is bad enough.

When I purchased this truck back in 2011 the dealer told me that the weight sticker had to be on the truck because the newer trucks are built heavier than the older ones and because of the GVR a weight sticker is required by law.

      What I think you're saying is there is supply here at home, and in Venezuela, and we could ease pricing if only it were favorable to do so.   Well, yes?   But that's not the current market. Supply isn't what could someday exist, if only, it's what producers are willing to produce and sell at a certain price point.   The national price of single family homes would come way down if we'd just slap together a few million homes this summer.   RAM and GPUs would get a lot cheaper if we just set up some factories to produce a bunch more and stopped using it to build out AI data centers.

      The turn signal/multifunction switch is faulty.  I've seen a few of these go bad at work.

      If we actually used any significant amount of that source in the USA then I'd agree but we don't. We've had that discussion before. We drill and pump more than we use. Thing is, we sell. We export. Gas and Crude. It's more profitable so any shortage here is self inflicted and LEGAL.    I worked a gas plant that has multiple fuel sources available and I worked in the furnace and boiler plant in that facility. I'd had days we swapped fuel types four times in a twelve hour shift which isn't done on supply but on margin. Two of the fuel sources are internally generated. Tail gas and DAK, both of which are sold as well a consumed. We always had more than we needed to run the process but we chose the fuel that produced the best margin not bought at the cheapest price always. A good bit of math to that and back in the time that was done on a slide rule.     I worked the Shale Oil Semiworks of Chevron Research and CONOCO Research in Salt Lake City. That process never went into production although it was very successful. Why? Did we lack oil bearing shale? Nope. Price of crude never made the margins work. That was in the late 70's early 80's. Remember history? What was happening then was a reaction to that situation. It didn't drive it. If so then it's easy. This isn't a supply and demand thing. This is a profit and margin thing and AI rules that now.    In no refining situation that I was ever in would a bomb hitting a well anywhere in the world 'instantly' interrupt or even distress the supply. Most plants have more than a months worth of crude in the tank field and more in pumping stations. That yo-yo could play out over days, weeks and maybe months and have zero impact on plant operations. How many times has this been off and on in the last few months? These people and not stupid. These plants measure down time in hundreds of thousands of dollars per day. They are not sucking fumes or waiting on the next truckload with baited breath. Besides, as I noted, they are for the most part 'vertically integrated'. They own it from the dirt is sits in to the delivery rack and sometimes to the pump. It has a HUGE shock absorber built in. When production suffers, refining wins and when refining is winning exploration is killing. The rest of that crap in the news is a 'news cycle'. Government dipping in to reserves? Oil is stealing their milk money. There's a reason Chevron abandon Venezuela infrastructure and it had nothing to do with security of US citizens. Nationals run those plants. it has to do with MARGINS disappearing to corruption. They are in no hurry to return. Is there supply there? Oh yea. More than enough to offset what is bought in the middle east. Just isn't ???? Profitable.    We have supply. There are places in Illinois you can drive a pipe into the ground and run your homes natural gas furnace on it.    A refinery fire will gum up the supply works but not a localized war where the market is using a limited supply from. Now Europe, that's something other....
