California law about 1:1 EV to diesel truck law will put small businesses out of business

[Saltwater60]

New California law that say long haul trucks need to be one diesel to one EV is backfiring because truckers can’t afford the EV and don’t want them. They get a range of 150 miles just 10% of what diesel trucks get and cost twice as much. Also very few charging stations. Freaking morons. Yes article is payealled but I summed it up.

Soon, nothing will be left in Cali. Oh well.

I just leased a medium duty diesel truck. I had to sign a form stating that it was not permitted to take a brand new truck into California. How insane is that. Is that not interstate commerce restrictions?

Care to elaborate?

It can't travel into CA, or be brought there for resale or some such?

Too bad, so sad. I hope those nutjob politicians out there turn it into a wasteland. And that those who support those utterly fucked up ideas STAY THERE!

The California nut jobs want to have control of the entire country

Can not cross the CA border, It is not allowed in CA for any reason. Its a leased truck, I cannot sell it. I am guessing because it does not have CARB emissions? I'll see if I can dig up the form.

It appears that since the lease company is a large fleet they need to have a certain percentage of trucks that are not ICE and very low NOX?

Tell them it runs on Brawndo

 

[thughes]

Perfect. Eventually there will be no trucks approved to deliver anything into that state....nothing like laying siege to yourself. Just another self-correcting problem.

I honestly think that movie was a documentary.

Does California not realize that modern diesel trucks are cleaner than Gas and EVs?

They do but it’s not about that. They don’t want the average person to own anything.

I don't understand why the "people" are not doing anything about this.

 

[Carlos Hathcock]

California and NY compete to see which one can fuck shit up better and faster than the other.

As per design.

Because the "people" voted for it.

Truckers and Trucking Companies have to have "special" CDL's to haul freight into California and have for several years now...before long it'll be so bad that even Mexico won't want it back, maybe they're getting it ready for the Chinese.

Wait, what? Not that I would want to, but you are saying my CDL is not valid in CA? Can you give more information on that?
