Question Anyone in Monroe
Can anyone in Monroe tell me what the vehicle inspection is like there?
Here in Morganton they don't do emission testing on anything newer than 94.
They only do a visual on cars and trucks from 75-93, 94-up they have to pass the emission testing.

as far as the slicks are concerned there is no inspection visual or otherwise. I live in lexingon meself so i know nothing about your area as far as the other things go.

this pdf file (posted below) located at http://www.ncdot.org can shed some light for you on the inspections though. there is http://www.ncdot.org/dmv/moving/newnc/emissions.html which has the counties listed current and future listings.

this pdf has all the information you need, i would try to find it, but i really need to try to finish buffing my truck today so its not so funny looking at work tomorrow..lol

Looks like you have the full boat of emissions testing there..
here is the first line mentioning union country (if im correct is where monroe is)
Here is excerpt from that pdf.

motor vehicles which are registered or based in the initial nine (9)

This is my field. All 1995 and older, under 1 ton, get a safety inspection only. 1996 and up only get an obd2 test. If a check engine light is on you fail, if not you pass. Also the safety inspection on 1996 and newer. The tailpipe test is over and done with as of July this year. This is the entire inspection....

How about a 1986 F250 with the original 460?
