mackcl96 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Will Mack be next If so A Titan will cost $200,000Volvo Trucks North America boldly said Monday, March 2, its trucks with EPA 2010 emissions reduction technology will include a surcharge of $9,600. This cost comes from the new technology necessary to meet the strict new emissions standards for heavy-duty trucks, which take effect Jan. 1, 2010. “Our emissions reduction technology for 2010 will bring immediate benefits for the air we breathe without using emissions credits, while at the same time significantly improving fuel economy for our customers,” said Scott Kress, senior vice president, sales and marketing. “Volvo Trucks will achieve near-zero emissions of NOx (nitrogen oxides) with selective catalytic reduction.” http://www.etrucker.com/apps/news/article.asp?id=76663 Quote Thanks for hearing me out.You can have the soap box now---------JIM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 It don't make no sense in this day and age. Trucks are not selling due to the economy and now there is another reason to keep what you got. I don't blame the manufacturers, though. Government regulation got us where we are today, folks. Now we pay a premium price for an inferior, unreliable product.
