California’s latest proposed regulation would cost billions in engine retrofits and replacements, but a variety of compliance options appear to show that the state’s environmental board has acknowledged at least some of the difficulties that would pose for the vast majority of small fleet operations that dominate trucking.

Pardon me.. but ... HA! Their damnabble "compromises" are still too freaking expensive! $35,000 for a catalytic converter that will only stave off the beast called CARB for 2 years? Get real!

That's what I say too.
We have no choice in CA but to buy up or move out. I'm paying down debt so that I can save up for a new rig. It was 2013 now it's 2012 for my Pete's death sentence. I'll get no help either from the state like the harbor truck operators a getting now to be compliant.
