WTF, by Cousin Eddie

All right, buckle up, folks, because it's time for another episode of "WTF by Cousin Eddie," where we dive headfirst into the absurdities that only liberal governance could dream up.

So, here's the deal: California, in its infinite wisdom, has decided to pull the plug on motor home sales. Yep, you heard that right. Starting next year, if you were planning on buying a new motor home to escape the liberal lunacy of California for a bit, you might as well start looking at used models, because new ones? Forget about it, “Donnie Brasco”

Now, the genius behind this move, courtesy of the California Air Resources Board (CARB), is their so-called Advanced Clean Trucks regulation. This isn't just about pushing electric trucks, no sir. It's about banning anything that burns a fossil fuel with the same zeal as they ban conservative thoughts in their universities and the California State Legislature.

Imagine this: You're out there, looking for the American dream on wheels, a Class A or C diesel motor home, maybe even a cozy Class B for those weekend getaways. But nope. If it's over 8,500 GVWR and has a combustion engine, you're out of luck. Even gas motor homes are getting the axe. Why? Because they don't fit into the 'zero-emission' fantasy land California seems to be building.

And let's not forget, this isn't just a California problem. Like some sort of progressive plague, it's spreading. Oregon, Washington, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and soon, Colorado in 2027. They're all lining up to ban the very vehicles that symbolize freedom and the open road.

But here's the kicker: CARB thinks this is all fine because manufacturers can just buy "clean air credits." Oh sure, because nothing says fiscal responsibility like adding another expensive layer to the already pricey business of RV production.

What does this mean for the average Cousin Eddie who loves to hit the road in their RV? It means the industry's backbone is under attack. The RVIA is trying to fight back, but it's like watching someone try to put out a California wildfire with a squirt gun.

So, to my fellow conservatives in Colorado, if you want to keep the spirit of the open road alive, might I suggest speaking to your representatives NOW or start looking into solar panels for your existing RVs. Because soon, enjoying a simple road trip might require you to have a political correctness registration.
