      You'll have a bunch of states where an old pre-emission truck is still legal and a bunch where it wont be, making it realistically unfeasible to drive OTR with one that isn't EPA compliant. The days of 1 guy making a living with his own truck are numbered so enjoy it while it lasts.

      Realistically that wont ever happen. They still make parts for almost every mainstream internal combustion engine ever made since the WW2 era and probably prior to. Why? Because there is a profit motive to do so. What will happen in the next 10-15 years is the feds will just follow the California model and ban any non-compliant engine from on-highway use and not allow you to register it unless it's an antique or historical registration. It will be a state to state thing since all vehicles are registered according to what state they are domiciled in but all lower 48 states and probably all of Canada will agree to it. Or the red states will be slower to adopt it making it a patchwork nightmare of what states your truck is legal to operate in. Non-compliant trucks will be relegated to intrastate and local work but running the road in one will probably be out of the question from a legal and practical standpoint. maybe you could run a dirty rig in a block of flyover states for awhile but any west or east coast will be off limits since that's where all the "commonists" live.

    • @Bloodbain88
      @Bloodbain88 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      Exactly. Most people don't think about the extra materials, resources and time that goes into manufacturing the entire def system, not to mention making the fluid itself and all the millions of plastic jugs that contain it. Then all the extra wear on the engine and components to sit there and high idle for 30mins, and all the fuel that burns. And all the man hours and resources to maintain the system.
      Obviously I could be wrong, but if ALL the above is factored in, my opinion is the new ones pollute worse, while being terribly unreliable and costing more to maintain and operate. It's a lose lose.

      Emissions are ultimately tied to the truck.
      What you’re talking about are glider kits where an old model engine can get put into a new chassis. But, that “loophole” got closed to where basically all new trucks have to meet the current emissions for when it was built.
      As an individual doing your own trucks you could probably get away with it if it’s only a few trucks.

The most common failure is sensors, (Nox sensors, soot sensors, etc). Unless, the driver did something wrong, IE put diesel in the DEF tank, putting off regens until the truck is fully derated and wont go beyond 5mph/engine shutdown.

      Lol you talk like 450k is a lot. That's only a few years of trucking. For Old school diesels 450k is literally only half the life if that and when time came you could do an inflame over a weekend if you're fast and had the equipment. The point is giant companies Wil be fine they just get rid of them every 2 years. What about small guys? Construction companies and such arent going to be able to pay for a newer truck. By the time they get it it'll be nothing but trouble every day and that'll start a chain effect in society. It will effect you too don't worry

  • @affordabledcgenerators1607

    Would be great if the emissions components were standardized and made more universal to drive the cost down, increase availability, which would minimize down time.
    Would also be great if the EPA also mandated that these systems were completely open to universal scan tools and the diagnostic data was distributed.
    But instead these guys lock you out, make everything proprietary, and when it breaks force you to get off the road.
    It's a racket set up by the EPA and manufacturers. If they actually cared they would be making things easier instead of harder. Gee I wonder why people want to delete everything 🤔🙄

    I work with a major manufacturer OEM warranty and everyone should get the extended coverage (ain't cheap) when you buy a new truck. Most get 500000 mile aftertreatment warranty, some can get up to 750000 mile warranty. As you said, it's the least reliable components on the truck, so the warranty is almost always worth it in the end. I'm sure they'll find a way to bake the mandatory extended coverage in the price the truck going forward though.
    In this day and age, buying extended warranty is king. Even with the bumper to bumper chassis warranty on highway trucks, from experience I've found you get back more in repairs vs what you pay for the warranty over the life of the truck.
    On a side note, I've seen people save the $2k on extended transmission coverage only to be faced with a $10k-15k bill down the road during the normal warranty period they opted out of. Long story short....get the warranty.

    You make many valid points. Lawmakers often don’t fully account for unforeseen consequences.

It’s like the drunks in the back of the movie theater ruining it for everyone else. If truck owners and operators would just comply with the current standards we wouldn’t need even tighter standards.

    Thanks for taking the time to delve into the 2027 standards and the mandated extended warranty period.
    It is another subject that the government can mandate what the warranty period will be, but I have thought for years that the environmental impact of these emission systems may actually be detrimental to the health of the environment as a whole.
    If engine manufacturers had applied the same resources to strictly improving efficiency as they have to meeting emission standards, I suspect the impact on the environment would be no greater than it is now. Based on anecdotal information from folks that deleted emission systems, it is not far fetched to say that a 20% increase on efficiency is an exageration, which would mean 20% more fossil fuels are being consumed with 20% more trucks transporting fuel. Then consider how many natural resources are used just to create these systems: DEF, DEF system components, DPF filters and components, etc. Then consider how many additional trucks are required just to haul DEF, and how many of the plastic DEF jugs had to be created using fossil fuels, how much ends up in landfills, how many additional tires were used for the trucks transporting DEF, and on and on.
    Having seen improvement in air quality in places like the Los Angeles basin between the 70s and now, I am not completely on the side that all government emmision standards are bad, but it sure seems to me that they can very easily go to far. I think it would be a good engineering graduate student's thesis to attempt to quantify all these factors.

    When my fleet of modified C-15s are due for a rebuild, they will get rebuilt by the same Cat shop that built them. He'll, you kick a new truck hard enough, it will throw a code. What junk.

    I had all the emissions system removed from my truck, it was well worth it.

    Not many drivers know what they're doing even when it comes to operating a diesel engine. And those unhealthy chronic practices are costing carriers very high amounts of money.
    Take it from a truck driver myself.

    Don't forget quarterly emissions testing for all commercial diesel trucks in CA starting in 2025.

    I can definitely see a 35k to 50k increase in new truck prices. And why not. The government is not paying for it.

  • @trolltime1862

    Meanwhile the government is exempt from following these regulations, I see brand new trucks being shipped to them with no emissions all the time.

    Northeast sales manager for a company I won't name, when emissions crap started told me that they added $7-$17k for warranty repair on every new piece of equipment.

    Every time these federal three letter departments come out with a new rule I always say follow the money. As in who is going to be making millions of dollars because of this rule. Then trace who these people are or corporations are connected to. Follow the money. I am so glad my diesel motorhome is a 2000 Monaco with absolutely no emission crap on it. It has a banks kit on it and burns very clean.

    What needs to be done if they want to clean things up is just provide incentives to develop carbon neutral renewable fuels, that way an engine can still have CO2 emissions without them 'contributing to climate change' (a point I'm still not convinced about.)

    One good thing about the warranty explanation is that it MIGHT force the manufacturers to start making more reliable systems OR push back against the EPA.

    I think its time they made CNG premix in the air standard for all diesels. It could probably negate the need for half the other emissions control equipment, while saving on some fuel costs and increasing power.

    Warranty may pay for repairs don't pay for the down time. Plus I have sat for 28 days down due to no parts.
