I took the day off to do this, along with some other errands. My past experiences with emissions testing have been less-than-stellar so I was prepared for a long wait, cranky personnel, and crappy experience overall.
I couldn't have been more wrong ! I was in and out in under 5 minutes! The staff was polite and patient, and I noticed that there was a LOT less noise :)
This is something we all have to do at some point. Might as well have a decent time doing it....
