I hope you've noticed the increase in class 8 fires. DPF filters
burning people's belongings and livelihood up in smoke.

Making it so that older trucks have to be retrofitted is going to
cause death and destruction and it's really not going to improve
your air quality. Your air quality has a lot to do with the trade
winds bringing China's pollution to you. 

As a trucking company my trucks will not be going to California
again and I am talking with any trucking company that will hear me
to do the same. Interstate Commerce is supposed to be an even
playing field across the board. Burdening trucking companies to
comply with your rules that have no basis in science (since the
person who wrote the rules didn't have the degrees he claimed)
isn't providing for a fair and equal playing field.

These new trucks are unreliable, dangerous to life and property and
have poor fuel mileage. Burning more fuel per mile is what your
policies have created. 

I hope someone with some common sense will prevail at CARB but I
highly doubt it.
