    Bet they tested it at 70mph and turned around to brag about the efficiency in a 55mph state.

    Look at the bright side.

    Dontcha love rent-seeking corporations like Transtex Composite Inc?

    Oh I'm sure they are dedicated to it. They're just saving you money, you see, now pay up! ...for our PROPRIETARY technology, leading edge it is! Affordable we say!!! And remember, IT IS THE LAW! Have a nice day! Drive carefully!

    I think everyone should let Transtex Incorporated know how much you appreciate them having such a big heart and just looking out for your well being: info@transtexcomposite.com

    I would feel better if they were at least an American company. I'm sure retrofits for older trailers will be required next.
