Guns maybe but God help you if it's a radar detector!  :^(

BTW, Arizona also has the chassis dyno emissions testing setup but they
exempt full-time AWD cars & trucks as well as those with traction control
that can't be disabled from the dash.  The last time I went, they noticed my
Audi was a quattro without any prompting on my part and performed a basic
sniff test at idle ... since AWD cars are still pretty rare out here (heck,
even most of the SOBs -- er, SUVs -- are only 2WD!), I don't think the state
will be in much of a hurry to install AWD dynos like in Colorado.  Here's
hoping anyway....
