    It’s not far away. They’re already checking trucks in Ontario and going after the people that are deleting them.

    Always easy to find one or two examples of someone getting caught when there are 10 of thousands of deleted trucks. Normally( for those that can’t comprehend, I said “NORMALLY” it has been the one who make the devices, or have large number of trucks that have gotten in trouble. There are hundreds if not thousands of guys running around doing deletes with computers who are not even worried. Will they get caught? Maybe, maybe not.

    For now…
    Wait and see if people are dumb enough to vote in Notley again then we’ll all have Greta tattoos and driving electric cars.

    Only reason she got in was because the vote got split between the 2 right wing parties. Now that they've joined together I'd say her odds of winning again are slim.

    I just bought a complete 3 ton unit for $3500, paid a licensed, insured, and certified tech to install for $1000, also paid him an additional $400 to clean out the ventilation duct.
    Got a 10 year parts and labor warranty from the manufacture when I registered the units online and provided the install receipt.

    If they ever make it part of the FHWA annual inspection, I imagine there’s be some hard feelings. NC’s state safety inspection (including for CMV’s) includes emissions controls tampering, though it only has to be present and have the appearance of being operational.
