Weird. I’ve seen a noticeable amount of temporary tags near me. Like every 8th car

There tends to be waves of new car buyers. Which means that when that waves cars start to fail on them in how ever so many years they buy in another wave.

There's a wave every 3 and 5 years near me. Its very noticeable. Outside of that you basically see zero new cars on the road.

I wonder if there were a bunch of Honda hybrids. I had a headgasket leak and I had to sell before it showed up on the onboard computer
