My plans include replacing worn bushings and ball joints in my LX570, which is at 200k.
My other cars are where I am happy with them, though the 2000 M5 is getting redesigned timing guides from Partee Racing. Then, a good road trip with it.

That’s fair, though I know those who do split time that way - which is expensive, and brings us back to the original problem.

There -is- a hack for this, but it’s a five hour drive to Santa Cruz from there.

Oh, and if your spouse is domiciled in California, so are you. It’s a community property state. Think moving out of state is expensive at that level? Try a divorce.
There are other factors that cost money too. It’s just not financially worth it and these people are weird about money.

Heh. Man, you can go mess with the FTB if you want, but they can compel a lot of information with ease. Go spend five minutes checking.
Don’t forget that California is a community property state. If your spouse is domiciled there, so are you.

Wait until I tell you about the Sierra Nevada.

I, uh. I think you’re missing the point.

They won’t. Unless they can stay out of the state for 185 days a year, they’ll still owe the same taxes.
It’s not worth it. Even people with more money than god won’t move $multibillion companies out of state so they can score a point and save at tax time.

Can’t see them staying out of the state for 185 days a year either. Or moving all their employees and businesses to…sweat/bigot/traffic/pollution state. (Also good barbecue in some spots)

Any of these whiny babies move to Texas they need to sell every single square inch of every property that could possibly be taxed in here in Cali. Otherwise, they’ll owe payroll tax anyway.
Do you see Sacks or Musk or any of the fragile bros selling their Cali homes? lol no.

Yeah, California hit different when you go outside and soak your shirt in sweat. I have the feeling these whiners won’t dare move to a state where you can’t do Yosemite the same day you’ve surfed in Santa Cruz.
And then there’s the Franchise Tax Board.

I’ve got questions as well.

Yeah, California has no plan for it either, so traffic is just as bad as it ever was. Is this E-470?

My experience does not comport with yours in the slightest, but Virginia City is a lawless place.
We don’t have SantaCon here. We have a cheap parade and drive shows 20 times a year and 3/5 drivers are shitfaced.

Respectfully, people go to bars and drive home in the country all the time. It isn’t solely an urban problem, which seems to be what you’re saying?

Thank god Tesla only gave Storey County cash for new Chevy patrol vehicles -with aftermarket performance modes-.
Scuttlebutt is they tried to give us Cybertrucks but the Sheriff would absolutely not allow it.

Perhaps at that point they could spend twenty minutes learning what all the switches and buttons do, an overlooked aspect of “I just spent $100k on something that can be destroyed by a kid in a Corolla so people think more of me”.

I thought I would too. Some manufacturers are simply terrible at it - and I suspect Tesla is among them, because f everyone else.
The auto-brights in my 2018 M2 were really pretty good, but curvy and hilly (where I live) were not the place to use them, so I didn’t.
Someone tell everyone else.
