    From what I understand that is not the case. CARB is CARB and CHP does their thing separate.

    That would depend on what you're looking to spend. I may be selling a 2012 in a month or two depending on what my boss (wife) says.

    If there were going to be fines handed out, then carb would have issued them not warned anyone. But because there's pending litigation, they would end up losing with another lawsuit over the fact that they can't fine out of state trucks.

    EXACTLY Ridgeline. I will ask AGAIN, the same thing I have asked for years!

    Have any one of you (YOU, not your friend or your cousins girlfriends brother) YOU, have you been cited and fined? Show us the ticket...

    I would bet any person reading this that NOBODY can find ONE SINGLE ticket that has been paid to CARB.

    I worry more about a zombie apocalypse than CARB.

    OK my person lives in California, my truck is registered and licensed in Wisconsin (leased to a carrier there). Am I considered an 'out of state' truck for the purposes of not being held to their ridiculous emission standard?

    I see plenty of old beater trucks all up and down California when I go through. Just wondering because I have a California CDL would they pounce on my like some blood thirsty beast and put me out of business.

    I wouldn't think they could. Seeing that the truck is the subject, not the driver. Now if California came up with another board which requires drivers to wear pink bow ties while driving, then I think they would fine you directly.

    I have not run into CARB once, but I am finding an increasing number of shippers & brokers who won't work with old trucks inside California.
