Were there any (current)California compliant cabovers made before the US pretty much went 100% conventional?
CA legal cabovers?

I've sat next to a couple of theirs at a receiver before, looks like they had a dedicated account with. They actually have a crew that goes around washing their trailers and rigs. I couldn't tell what model they were using though.

I looked into it pretty hard for an account that I had could have really used a cabover, Argosy was/is as close as you can get and NONE of them were emissions legal in cali. "as sold new" I believe last new Argosy you could buy was a late 06 sold as 07's.
Anything after that is a glider, I am familiar with the Gardner trucks, they bought several Argosy Powered glider kits with 12.7 Detroit's and then had a company out there add passive DPF's to them.
I guess it worked, but VERY expensive to do, and even those trucks will be "out" of the legal window shortly.QuietStorm Thanks this. -
KANSAS TRANSIT Thanks this.

I've heard the new Argosy is exempt in CA as they can't be purchased with the current emissions system.
If that were true I'd imagine seeing alot more of them in CA.KANSAS TRANSIT and QuietStorm Thank this. -
