So I compiled a list comparing CA and TX Metro Region first, thinking for sure TX had more cars per capita than CA,but I was surprised to see that CA actually has more in this regard--then I added FL...Orlando has more cars than people
and South Florida pips the Metroplex in total vehicle registrations, which I found noteworthy...anyhow, for other geeks like me:
