Stupid california emissions

then what about all those old trucks with CA plates that run the I5, I10, I15 I don't think they all installed DPF filters.

 

they may only be running the 1000 miles that cali allows. or 5000 miles throughout the country.

yes, there's a lot of them floating around, but we don't know what those trucks are doing.

 

Too much methane

 

But if you put any aftermarket parts on them, THEY have to be CARB compliant.

 

i wouldn't even worry about it. i know a 02 kw that goes there regularly.

company wants to get rid of it, but for some reason, she refuses to drive one of the new FL's.

 

Crazy how a bunch of spineless shippers are wasting time and money "policing" for CARB.

 

Based on what I've seen first hand over the past two years, 1)there are about a quarter of the trucks running that can not possibly not be CARB compliant and 2)NOBODY has checked my truck or reefer for compliance - they are both kosher but other than the "Your truck must be CARB compliant" deals on the broker sheets I haven't been asked for anything 3) I haven't seen ANY blue SMART Cars or any other vehicle from CARB enforcing anything anywhere in the state.

When I had my other truck, he was stopped on 15 northbound leaving LA and told me they put a camera down the exhaust to make sure the DPF filter was there but that was 4 years ago
