    California motorhome rule kills sales

    On October 24, CARB (the California Air Resources Board) amended its Advanced Clean Truck (ACT) regulations. Essentially, these new regulations require that all vehicles over 8,500 pounds GVWR (gross vehicle weight rating) must produce zero emissions. A credit system allows manufacturers to continue to sell a given number of fossil-fuel engines in California, provided they have non-polluting vehicles to offset.

    Two major diesel chassis builders, Spartan and Freightliner, have told Newmar RV that they can’t meet that requirement. In a letter to dealers, Newmar says that effective today, November 4, they will no longer be able to provide any diesel-fueled motorhomes on those platforms.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Buy your motorhome in another state.

            This should stop climate change.

                  My so-environmentally-conscious leftie brother just bought one of these Winnebago Travatos. gets about 11 MPG. I guess it's OK to kill the earth if you can save on hotel rooms and camp in people's parking lots.
