    Why? It saves tons of fuel and lowers their emissions... It should be extended to ALL vehicles to lower them even more. Golly, I get 9+ in Cali.

    All of the message on the Swift QC is true,,but there still remains a lack of enforcement,,some older trucks still have time under the small fleet exception,,for those who could not obtain financing and documented such

    In terms of enforcement I've heard the greenies handing out tickets at truck stops in Indio/Coachella and also doing inspections sporadically at the Banning scale. All you have to do is wait them out.

    That thing is huge. I noticed the ramps leading to it will hold like 500 trucks lol. It's got an inspection bay the size of the Kingdome. How do you suppose they plan on paying / funding that thing?
