Subject | 08 diesel exhaust regulation |
Comment | I own 98 tractor spece,d for light weight specialized trailer.Overhauled cummins engine with lo-nox overhaul kit, purchased apu. run 150,000 mi a year about 10,000 ca would be happy to install particulete filters but funny thing nobodys got one for my truck apu found one 1389.96.so before you run me out of business check to see if equipment is avalible to comply with new regulations or give manufactures and trucking companys a fair amount of time to install and comply with new law .I live in the imperial valley how are you going to control all the farm equipment [tractors,crawlers,swathers,pumps,field harvesters etc,] just driving around in 2 days i counted 89 pieces of equipment blowing diesel exhaust.and calif. is a one damn big farmfield spotted with a few cities The economy is bad freight is at a all time low freight rates suck and companys are going under daily.so give us some decent time to comply and manufactures time to build equipment needed to upgrade exhaust systems as some of us do not want to forced to buy high priced trucks because grants,discounts,tax breaks,you have to be able to make the money before you can spend it and right now over a million people laid off no money ,no purchasing,no trucks needed to deliver goods. |
