skeet Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Just saw this on the news. California is considering banning black cars. Their reason is that black absorbs more heat than lighter colored cars and thus the drivers use their air conditions more which in turn makes them to use more gas. What’s next, banning people that have dark complexions because they absorb more heat and thus use their air conditioners more than people with light complexions?

stump_breaker Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 How can a state about to be bankrupt - one that sends out tax returns as IOU's - even think of yet another stupid law like this??

07SGT4578 Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 the actual truth to the story is...... ..........they found out that we TS members always argue about which color is faster. They spent the last of thier money on a study that found the BLACK cars ARE actually the fastest and wanted to even the field. They figure the only way to do this is to get rid of the black cars.

HORSBYT Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 We've all lost it, it's all gotten to the point of absurd. Looking at Ken's post about it being B.S., but then realizing that they were even looking at "reflective finishes/glass" should of been enough to be labeled a waste of time. Seriously, there aren't more important things to spend time/money on??? I told my wife, if things get so bad here or I lose my job (God forbid) we're outta here! (Again!) We lived in CO for 8 years, but I don't think we'd end up there again. Texas sounds good or maybe one of the Carolina's. At any rate, I just want to be around people who think again.... Not people who think they're THINKING!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
