I'm so not jealous that you guys have to deal with smog checks down there. That's simply not a thing here in the cow counties. I'm dreading it if I ever move back into civilization - I think I might have one car that would pass smog.

DrPain posted:Not sure on the brand, I'll find out for you though. When we tested the ranger we flushed the milkshake out, filled it with pure water, and ran the test. That's how literally every long piece of freight is delivered. Unless the truck doesn't have a liftgate, in which case you tell them to come back the next day with a truck with a liftgate.

DrPain posted:Interesting. I literally have no idea what I'm doing. Sometimes, if the freight is robust, you can do it without a liftgate. Drag the freight out until just a couple of feet of it are still in the trailer and set your end on the ground. Then come around from the side and lift the freight from the middle. Once it's balancing on your forks, reverse while turning towards the trailer, allowing the remaining bit of freight that's still inside of the trailer to swing out of the trailer door. Then you just drive forward or have the truck drive away.

cursedshitbox posted:To add to Dr.pains gay rear end smogger post. To add to this, this only applies in "urban" counties, which is Clark and Washoe. If you happen to live out in the countryside, you can go hog wild since you never need to have a smog check or inspection or anything else ever.

DrPain posted:He's also a 49ers fan. Bleh. I hold a special grudge against the Niners because they drafted known rear end in a top hat Colin Kaepernick out of that school in Reno. I worked in the athletics department all through my time at UNLV, and it is my personal opinion that Kaep wouldn't have been an NFL prospect if UNLV had managed to field any kind of defense against that fucker who padded his stats by running up the score every loving time we played them and lost. I was forced to watch each and every one of these woodshed beatings live from the sidelines when I was working football season. College rivalries never die. I had hoped he would fade away into nothingness but nope, the goddamn Niners had to go and draft him and then give him the starting QB job! Dick. Jerks. Ask me how I really feel. To hell with the Niners and to hell with Kaepernick. You don't know the heartache of watching your friends and classmates get decimated by a showboating jerk running a gimmick offense for 4 straight years only to be kicked in the teeth when the world's greatest sports league rewards him with a starting position. Richard Sherman is the truth. When he tipped that awful pass to force the game winning interception in the NFC Championship Game last season I went off. Whenever I'm sad I just pull up that clip on youtube. While I don't care about football, I feel that there is only one appropriate response to this.

I, too, wish for an unreconstructed racist hillbilly to be my beloved mascot. By the way can you make a trip up north to fix the a/c on my Benz thanks

Nevada is both. Unless you work at a unionized hotel or for a unionized mine, you're screwed here as a worker.

Viggen posted:They may enforce things different in/around Vegas than they do here- but if it passes smog (or is old enough that it doesn't have to), they aren't going to bother. When you bring in a car to have it visually inspected, they don't even check the bulbs. Just look for a VIN, you pay $1, and get in line inside. I've literally never even done a VIN inspection, and I've bought and sold dozens of cars here over the years. Many have not had stock motors at some point during this history. And it's not like Summit's "dockside pickup" option is unpopular for crate engines around here.
