My Sister lives in BC and they are working with california and adapting our smog laws also, there is even an article about it on one of your links so canada isn't the answer!!!! They've been hitting industrial areas up there for a while now anyway, running from a socialist movement state to an already socialist country is not the answer Smiley

One thing that irritates me is emissions only account for a small % of the atmospheres HC's NOx and greenhouse gases, however that doesn't mean we should freely add more to it by removing smog equipment and upgrading things that create more smog WTF{Confused} ??

I totally agree that the ass holes behind all this are quacks but I also don't think running around showing everyone how cool my black smoking un-efficient burning diesel is, neither of my diesels blow black smoke even my old 93 without a cat and a aftermarket exhaust...

DPF's are a joke and not an answer Urea injection that GM is adding to the 2010 diesels is a great system, and people are already bitchn about it, fact is they have been using it in europe with great success for years it breaks the NOx down into harmless nitrogen and water with no effect on performance (its an extra injector that injects a solution that will need to be refilled about every 5000 miles) and its cheap!

Diesels burn hot they have a high combustion heat which is great because it already kills all the HC's damn near, but higher heat naturally has higher NOx no matter what your burning hence the use of egr's on gas motors and some diesels main use to cool the combustion chamber.... and ever wonder why when you lean out a gas engine NOx goes through the roof thats right more heat! its not good no matter what you think about your freedoms and your right to do whatever you want!!! Its not your earth to fuck up sorry, its everyones!!!

Unfortunately we are not all the same we all don't have the same opinion on what we would like to do in this life and what are individual freedoms should be, if a guy wants to murder people shouldn't he be aloud to NO, his freedom causes a problem so it should not be a aloud, doesn't matter what the individuals opinion on there freedoms should be when others freedoms cause a problem in society it has to be dealt with......
Maybe if the world wasn't full of assholes in the first place we would have never gotten to this point but go ahead and get pissed it just gives them more of a leg to stand on! We all have to live here so we have to find a happy medium but getting all cooky about it isn't the answer, maybe start using your energy into making clean diesel performance parts instead of getting pissed over them taking away your polluting toys! Hell my DMax runs clean is 100% factory and has 660 ft lbs of torque what the hell do you need more power for? Does your dick feel bigger the blacker your smoke is{Confused}

And none of that was directed at an individual so don't get all bent out of shape its a discussion at thats my opinions on how certain assholes created this mess in the first place!

Man made Global Warming is BS however when someone breathes that nasty shit and they hear these's asshats talk about global warming and its relation to it they are Sold! and now there vote goes that direction so if you want to turn things around everyone needs to re think there approach and start playing there game, otherwise they are gonna win! All of you that bitch about all this stuff should start becoming part of the solution instead of helping feed there fires!

Sorry to keep on but all the clean up work you guys (zombies, pirates, creepers, other clubs) do on the con' and other trails is great and Im sure you all agree that trashing the place and polluting up there is not good so why show such great support and leadership up there but come down the hill and think its ok to pollute down here were geographically its naturally already gonna be worse? It doesnt make sense to me, it will ruin and hurt everything a lot of you have been working hard for, lead by example all the time not just up there because there already turning focus to land use and motorized vehicle access to it do to pollutants...

Most of us need are diesels to get our rigs to the trail so maybe just maybe we should keep that same example used up there used all the time so we can get our rigs to the trail in a diesel....

Remember they have a lot more educated people on there side its time to turn that around instead of running around ignorant

The DPF in your common diesel pickup is a joke. But the systems they have in on highway heavy duty and off highway are pretty fuckin awesome. Companys like cleaire have really done there home work and made a good product. Were you guys are fucked is the manufacturer want your $$$$$$$ so the put in there own system that you have to drive 55+ on the freeway for 40 mins. And most people dont do that every day so the things clog up and then you have to have them cleaned. If you guys have a stock DPF the main thing is to not let them idle that will clog the system quicker than any thing. I installed 30+ after market systems on f 350 14,001 lbs and up while i was at cummins and probably another 15+ at a to z bus sales and the work really well. All you have to do is plug your truck into 180 voltage while you sleep and the next morning all clean. These systems are on the heavy highway but it will trickle down to the common joe. The only problem there like $ 5,000 to $ 25,000 depending on application.

How many times did you guys chant Obama-Biden when they were elected?

I really had no idea i was surrounded by commies until recently. I'll gladly bow out of this joint and let yall have it too. Seems no matter where you go there are people supposedly on your team but still working for the opposition.

Enjoy it. Listen to what many of us have preeched to you and watch the rest of your freedoms be pulled from your grasp.

You still think this is about "making cool black smoke" your fucking out of your gourd and too far gone to come back to reality.

Keep supporting this KIND of shit (oh but I only support this particular thing) and watch what happens. Thats how they've gained all the ground they have.

Cali will crumble in time... hope you had fun.

So what you're saying is, you're active at the events I attend and hanging out in my e-mail box for all that I do, and you can't see me there? It would be one thing if you were a steward of the conservative movement and you couldn't see what I was doing... but you're not so how would you really know how involved I am?

Personally I try to get people to think rather than just take everything coming from the left as fact. Basically everything rush limbaugh says is viewed as false because the left says so... so everything al gore says is right and you're cool w/ that?

I want a fucking conservative revolution and the shit is not going to happen when people are still okay w/ their lives being run, right down to the food that will be put in their mouths.

Step 1: Rally the troops
Step 2: Debunk the myths of those on the fence
Step 3: Expose the lies of the left
Step 4: Take the goddamn country back for the love of god.

If you don't see it, you're not involved enough.

About California smog......Sorry silly, time to become a Canadian




Why are you so compelled to let the country change? Is it too hard to pick up your crap and move to Europe where these ideas have been in place for some time and they will embrace your mentality?

Why when I try to live in a country by the basis in which it was founded, do people like you think it's a great idea to tell me to leave?

Why must THIS country change (and by change I mean more like create gross amounts of profit for the undeserving flying under an altered appearance) ?

If you don't love it (in it's intended form) leave it.

Personally I'm sick of my freedoms having new fees attached to them at will. I'm tired of being directed by a group will ill intent for the affluent of the country, while they, themselves gain wealth paramount to anything you and I will ever see.

When is it too far? When a new motor has $4k in additional shit strapped on it to only cut at LEAST a 1/3 of your mileage right off the top to allow non visual emmission. When we're in a serious oil crisis they put regulations on vehicles that FORCE shittier mileage... that makes sense.

5.9 cummins 20mpg
6.7 cummins 12mpg

Now where is all that extra fuel going? If matter cannot be created nor destroyed there's a big graph w/ two lines running on it. One side is optimum mileage... the other side is optimum emmission.... when those two lines cross... where do you think it happens? Every time I look at it and do the math I find that it's a wash. Which then makes the rule a gimmick to take more of your hard earned money. A luxury tax, an accomplishment tax, a real american worker tax, reverse indirect slavery.... whatever the hell you want to call it.

So since I'm not al gore, just go ahead and disregard all I've said and don't give it a chance to sink it and possibly spark a rational thought.

I agree with you Phil. It feels like a revolution of sorts is coming. There is a bunch of new laws directed at the type of truck I drive for work. They want to regulate them and retrofit them with smog equip of some sorts. My boss basicly said if that happens the govt. will put him out of business. He can't afford that.

Do what you gotta do!

I don't agree with state governed life. I don't agree that the government has to tell me not to drink from a garden hose, ride in the back of a truck bed, talk on a cell phone or not to chew on a dirt bike engine block. The way I see those is one is going to do something that might harm them, then its there stupid fault. Most of us that are still around and old enough made it just fine so far in life.
As far as helping and doing my part to help the air I breath whether you think its right or not I support. You can not tell me that when you go to LA, and try to see the sun and you cant. FUCK IT, still must be ok. Must be that volcano erupting out there on the beach again. Or in the dead of cold winter here in the valley and spending an evening outside when every fireplace in the valley is ripping FUCK IT! If there is the possibility of controlling pollution that man kind makes? Why not?? Why cant we try to make it better? Population has grown with leaps and bounds over the decades, with that growth has come more vehicles, machienery and factorys concentrated in one area creating more pollutants in the air, you cant deny that. And when the dumb ass people who don't care about how rich or poorly there vehicle is running (or unfortunately cant afford to repair it) what is to happen? Are you going to tell them to fix there car? Doubtfull, So the government (big brother)is going to tell them too.

YES!!!!! I am sick and tired of our elected officials dipping into our wallets. Its hard enough to live already without having another reason to give them money AGAIN to control our lives. No I didn't vote for Obama. He is another politician who was never in the armed forces, doesn't believe in gun ownership and Feinstein, Boxer and Oprah supported him.

Phil, I don't know you. I really think that you and I are on the same side of the eight ball trying to push it back. I was just giving you a poke of fun in the ribs earlier in the thread. Don't take offence to it, relax and lets enjoy that we can still have a ungoverned debate topic of discussion

I do take offense to it because too many people don't take offense or care that we're losing this country. Tiliton basically says "what's one man doing to solve the problems"

well fuck, at least I'm doing something rather than conforming.

Of course clean air is a good thing but these over populated areas are tiny in comparison to the grand scheme of things. If someone wants to tell me how clean to make my vehicle run.... A) I don't want to pay for it because I didn't sign up for that shit when I bought it. {Cool} I want the choice.... if I'm feeling spritely that year and want to save the earth, maybe I'll get a smog check. C) If my shit fails... then give me some corrective measures to chase the issue rather than trying to squeeze every penny from me, pretending you don't have any ideas.
When it's a private business that's fine... but when it's a test only place.. they should be pandering to you like I white lib panders to obama.

I want the choice. I don't want the asshole on welfare w/ the shit vehicle on 30" wheels to have the choice. I want it.

My problem with not opposing everything coming to the table these days is clear.... give an inch, they'll take ANOTHER mile.

You really want to fix smog? really{Confused} re-evaluate the driving qualification. When your license comes up for renewal you take the driving test again w/ more advanced requirements like what I do with ford. 1/2 the people will lose their license. Yea the economy will have a f-cked off extreme hiccup as this trickles through. No traffic, no smog, increased public transit (what the libs want anyways)... all the shitty drivers moving into the city. The city goes up rather than out...... many many problems solved. of course new ones are created but what doesn't cause that.

this is the critical thinking I want to see more people doing and putting it in everyone's ears is part of the process.
getting any of this kind of stuff to take hold is nearly implausible with the kind of greed the "do gooders" actually posses.


Travis... the big truck retrofit is going to put so many people out of business... it's going to create california only trucks. At every border there will then be a trailer swapping station (more tax dollars) so the out of state trucks can switch loads w/ cali. cali will crumble

Oh I forgot the best part... all the cali trucks that get shut down (goodby's?) will then get a govt takeover... goodby-obama grading. Tell me it can't happen? GM....healthcare? trucking? hmmmm how big is the trucking industry? how long until they have 50% control of the gdp? When is it communism? 51%?
