Wow that’s a good deal! Here it’s $35 total for everything.

Btw @sdm111 here’s the note he wrote about the treads. Not much of a note but maybe explains it better haha he just wrote it to remind us, nice guy. But I think it was all even wearing. Just really worn/borderline. I think. Idk.

yes he just meant depth is borderline. Look across the tread of your tire every now and then going around the tire is a little rubber stripe that connects the treads together thats wear indicators when your tread is the same height of these bridges its time to get new tires

You can also do the penny test put a penny in the tread upside down if you see all of lincolns head sticking out its time for new ones

Also... curious what inspection costs in other states and if Massachusetts is just a rip off or if it’s actually a good deal or what haha

It’s $35 here.

I say that is a good deal.

I have no idea what it costs here but I will look now.
Looks like it cost 40 bucks here.

in Illinois
Pickups used to but not anymore.. now certain areas have emissions test... Free

They quit the vehicle safety inspections here back in the 1970s. They never did do emissions tests.

They don’t do any safety tests or anything!?

Nada.

Nada.

Oh wow! I guess that kinda makes sense though since there’s like no one out there so no danger and a lot of farms and farm trucks that probably wouldn’t pass

There really aren't a lot of farms in Wyoming, ranches, yes, but not farms.

They even have a special rule for sheep wagons. Sheep wagons, short for sheepherder wagons are basically a small camp trailer. All other trailers have to have a license plate to be pulled on public roads. Sheep wagons are exempted and can be pulled on public roads without a license plate. Some of them can be pretty fancy inside.
