Agreed on the second point, if:
We have responsible laws and agreed upon sensible standards.
No one is advocating despoiling the environment for shitz and giggles, we are asking for sensible regulations and this is a massive red herring.
I wonder how many of the nearly 300 million registered vehicles in the US are actually modded in this fashion? I'm guessing rather few. If I use my family including in-laws, as a very unscientific sample, between 14 people there are 19 vehicles. The only one that has that type of modification is my E63 M6. That is a bit over 5.3%. Red Herring.
If they want to make a lasting positive impact on the environment, ban cows.
