We run in CA constantly,inter and intra. Haven't seen anything like that yet. Our plates renew in August,no notice of that,(do have a couple of O/O's whose truck can't go anymore. Starting 1/1/13 when we broker reefer loads we have to have a copy of the ARB registration from the carrier. 2013 they also start fining shippers that load reefers without an ARB.(already fine them for CA carriers) We've cross docked a few loads from carriers who were caught without a compliant trailer and repowered one that had a 98 and was caught.
what year trucks do yall run

Figured if it happened it would be an IL thing. They look for any reason to limit states on your IRP. One of the reasons we are leaving.
So is it 2007 or newer on trucks and what year on reefers? -
Untill the end of the year it is 1999 model year or older. 2014 is EGR(or equivelent) Doesn't matter the motor year(unless DPF filter is added) Reefers are 7 years(motor year,not model year) Why the two are different only CARB knows. In 2011 they increased the number of fines on non compliant reefers quite a bit. A number of shippers have already been fined this year,maybe half of our customers based there require documentation.

The company before this one had some old run down trks and trls.Mine was a 94 Freightliner bought at a junk yard and the one before that was retrieved from a corn field.Feels real good to be done with that company and now driving and hauling tip top equipment.
DrtyDiesel Thanks this. -
my 94 is exempt from even registering or any type of retro fit in ca. It is also exempt from the speed limiter law in ontario and quebec,this is according to mercer anyway and I would say they are on top with the rules and laws.

Yep, I have a friend who sells trucks and he said they have been shipping ANY good running/condition truck from 1996 and back to California. He says they get about $10,000 more for them out there due to CARB???
