    I'll take the bad with the inspections, at least we don't have poisonous creepy crawlies, tornadoes, earthquakes, and people playing the "knockout game"

    Ted, apparently I was correct. There is a smog/emission test in Cumberland county.

    http://www.dmv.org/me-maine/smog-check.php

    it is $15.50 for vehicles older than 1996, and $18.50 for newer. an Antique plate avoids this emission test, just as it does the regular inspection.

    Aha! I see - since I have a 1970 it doesn't really cover much.

    Very true - we do, however, get oodles of salt on the roads - and also (where I live, anyway) in the air. It's always a tradeoff, I suppose.
