    That's bull cause I seen them on the highway going up to each truck and and slow down when passing looking for there carb complaint sticker. So some may get away with it but they will catch eventually

    They check for that Clean Idle sticker on your truck at Port Of Entry. I have not had them check my reefer, but I heard its a pretty big fine if they do decide to check and you're not compliant.

    I figured that's what he was talking about but as stated it pertains to "idle" it has nothing to do with driving down the road. I more so posed the question because I doubt he see them doing what he thinks they are but to each his own whatever. Carb isn't law enforcement......they can't initiate a traffic stop and many trucks that are compliant don't have that ghey sticker, so it really doesn't mean squat.

    Try going through a port of entry without one and you'll find you what it means.

    For a moment I thought I was reading my Biography lol. Our earlier years sound very much a like, and I too refuse to live that life again. No sense in it.
