    A bunch of smaller trucks are listed not just Class 8.

    With only 1100 trucks spread over that many years affected by a wiring issue I'm thinking it may be CNG or other Alternative fuel rather than Diesel.

    Looking at emissions studies in the past I noticed that CNG tends to put out more Methane than Diesel.

    It sure would be nice if the recall notice clearly stated what specific system was affected.

    I believe methane is a byproduct of natural gas combustion. So it's probably some kind of safety alarm much like a CO2 detector.

    Full disclosure, I DID NOT stay in a Holiday Inn last night.
