Lee Zeldin, Secretary of DOT, getting rid of costly emissions on DIESEL trucks!!!

[securityguy]

I hope congress passes this so we can legally get rid of emissions and have new motors come without DPF and DEF like military vehicles!

Do you have children? Do any of your family members have children? Do you not have any concern for the environment and the future our children will inherit? THAT is the reason the exhaust emission control devices were put in place. Amazes me how selfish individuals are with no concern for the environment or what the impact will be on the future.

If you look at the true science and stats surrounding green house gases, you have been brainwashed my friend. Auto emissions make up a VERY small fraction of the climate issues which is almost none at all. Am I concerned knowing the real facts behind this BS we've all been fed? I am not and yes I have kids and a new 6 week old grand daughter. You clearly drank the CNN/MSDNC KoolAid

I would genuinely like to see a true breakdown that says we can manufacture more steel for DPFs, manufacture more sensors and chips, manufacture urea, manufacture more plastic jugs, manufacture more cardboard to carry the plastic jugs, distribute all that material around the country, reduce fuel mileage so….wait for it…we can manufacture more fuel so more fuel has to be hauled……..to “save our children”.

I have a hard time believing we are making crazy strides forward to save the planet leveraging the above methods vs regenerative farming, rainforest expansion, native grassland reintroduction, local agriculture consumption, recycling, etc

Then again, maybe diesels exhaust will kill all our children?

What’s more of a risk to our children, the planet, and our future?

Diesel or politicians.

Bingo.

Not to worry only a few people who are naive really believe this will happen. I do not like it but hey if you want to live in a fantasy land that is your business.

Would probably save the planet more if all OEMs built shit to last vs constantly buying new stuff and exhausting resources. Of course all the exhausts and destruction for digging up lithium doesnt count in any greenie's equation. Add that to getting rid of the 1000lb battery packs when they are no longer any good (see statement one) and them catching on fire and cant really put them out. Im sure the EVs are worse for the environment in the long run.

That's a bot your responding too, so I wouldn't try to make it make sense. They'll just cut and paste some more climate bullshit. Easy to spot them, especially on emissions related posts.

@ChrisTX where you at MFer?
