for now its CA only, but like anything else im sure the other stats will follow in. Oregon, and NJ will be next. They always are.. -
Well, I'm strongly against any emissions stuff. Cats(catalytic converter), dpf, def, and egr.
I like diesel engines that breathe clean air, produce power, and let a little coal roll every now and then.
I will say though, if i could get a newer truck that produces great power, and the dpf won't clog up and strand you on the side of the road or cause any harm to the engine then I wouldn't mind having one.
I like the lonestar and my buddy told me to order one as a glider kit and put a cat 6nz in it. Which for some reason I had it in my head that you could only do that with kW and Pete's lol -
i think it's the other way around.
new trucks breeak down more then older trucks. companies that won't newer trucks don't mind there freight being late.DrtyDiesel Thanks this. -

2001, 2002, 2-2007, 2009, 2010, and a 2012. I buy brand new trucks because I can, I enjoy driving new trucks & I need the tax writeoff. That being said there is nothing wrong with a 12.7 freightshaker thats paid for in full. Run it 2 years and put some money away doing it. Smart business move.
Fullforce, DrtyDiesel and jjranch Thank this. -
