New Engine Standards Will Leave Trucking Industry on the Side of the Road

Quote:

GRAIN VALLEY, Mo., Nov 19, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- The Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association (OOIDA) is asking U.S. policymakers to step up and take action in response to new research predicting a dramatic drop in new truck and engine purchases which will ultimately lead to a break down in the trucking industry.
NERA Economic Consulting released a study detailing implications for the 2010 emission requirements for diesel engines indicating truckers and fleet managers will ultimately decide to not buy updated equipment because of financial reasons and user uncertainties. This will mean huge job losses for truck manufacturers and their suppliers, and a lack of choices for trucking equipment consumers of all sizes.
