Comment | As a pre-owned truck specialist. the CARB initiatives are wreaking havoc on our business. One problem is finding used trucks that qualify without the expensive add-on expenses derived from adding particulate filters to unqualified trucks. In used truck years we are approaching the time period 2008-2011 where new truck sales were at a low. This is all driving up prices tremendously and people are frustrated. There are two areas I would like to see allowances. Anything under 26,000 gvwr should just be exempt until 2030. Anyone in any industry driving fewer than 10,000 miles with any gvwr should be exempt. I have a construction company now who drives 10,000 miles per year with a truck built with special equipment. it goes to a site and sits 85% of the time. They are having to spend $70k on a used truck and another $20k just to transfer the body over. In the meantime, their old truck has done a great job for them. |
