While I can appreicate what changes have been made we are seriously
in trouble.

We employ 50 to 75 employees locally in the bay area, for almost 40
years. We are a small business. Husband and wife owned and family
run. We have upgraded some of our fleet. But to still have to
replace 5 tractors (costing $50,000.00 to 150,000. each) and 4
bobtail trucks (costing $30,000.00 to $55,000.00) is a hardship we
cannot endure. How can we pass on the costs to our customers??? In
this still very troubled economy. We are in the moving industry,
household goods and office moves, locally and in the state of
California. Very little out of state. in our fleet of 23 power
trucks total mileage for 2013 was 220,510! That was for all TRUCKS
in our fleet. (I have GPS in all my equipment) If there was a way
to extend the mileage exemption to 30,000 per year we could keep
replacing our trucks in a more cost friendly maner.

Please help us to stay in business we are doing everything we can
to stay compliant and grow our business to keep our 50+ working.

There is no assistance, no breaks for mid-sized companies.
