To whom it may concern:

I am requesting more time to install a PM filter on my truck. I
have been in this business for about 4 years.  Most of the money
goes to the brokers, I know is very easy to gather with all the
CARB members and come up with an excellent solution.  being a small
owner is not as easy as you think.  I was told 6 months ago that I
needed to install a $20000 filter.  really?  or purchase another
truck, so I had no option so I went to wells Fargo.  my bank for 20
years, I applied for 3 different loans
equipment
personal
and business
all three were denied. The reason . bad credit because of the
economy back in 2006 I lost my house because all the corrupt real
estate agents. I hold 5 credit cards.. all ate maxed out.  I do
have prove that the loans were denied, I can prove you that my
income is not as great as you all think.  we all my text returns in
the past 6 years.  last month I had some money saved.  and suddenly
I had to rebuild all my engine marketing that was a $10,000
expense.   I used 1 of 2 credit cards I had free to use.. after
that I run my truck 50000. miles and my engine broke down again.  I
have prove that was another $6000 expense. now I have all my credit
cards maxed out and my wife's credit cards are too. that is a
$60000 debt. my wife is unemployed so I have to support my house
and my family myself.   as a truck driver with limited education is
not easy no get a job for more than $500/week. I cannot live with
that.   so please give me more time to save those 20000 dls. and on
top of that I need to loose one week of work. 
I hope you understand and please our your self one minute in my
shoes and tell me what would you do?.. 

I know you probably say. "well is not my fault you did not ear a
degree".  the reason I'm a truck owner is because I had no other
choice in life when my parents passed away In my early years. I am
a good man working and paying my taxes. I not a citizen trying to
take advantage off all the programs California offers for low
income pple.

Thank you.

I couldn't upload my documents because I am out of state working
everything is at home.
