That's what I said, I think.  Or at least what I meant.

|What the poster said, read down, is that the NEW vehicle must meet the
|California standards to be registered.  So, the Washington standard is now
|matched to the California standard.  In effect, this means that you can't
|go to, say, Texas, and buy a car and register it first time in Washington,
|unless it is a California compliant vehicle.  And btw, some sold nationally
|are, just not all.  I assume that dealers in Washington now will only sell
|Washington (California) compliant new vehicles.

|What's wrong with this?  It helps us all.
