CA is screwy and true that a lot of car-related businesses are located here, but with every passing day this state does its damnedest to vilify the automobile, overtax businesses and specifically destroy manufacturing-type businesses with regulations, restrictions and the like. For many years, CA has been the home of "car culture", but I foresee that changing in the coming years. CA now hates the automobile, it only likes the money it gets from them - specifically from trying to encourage people to fork over for a new car every few years. CA's love affair with classics and "old cars" is long over. But another subject for another thread I suppose...

You're preaching to the choir brother. If all goes well I'll be the next one out of an auto based business and down the road to happier times.
