It's well established you could really care less about emissions

have a God-ordained right to at cheap rates. They should make the truck
companies develop alternate fuel trucks at their own expense if they
want to do business in California, just like they should have made GM
SELL the EV1 cars. California is such a profitable market they really
can ram it up the corporation's and they will comply. Corporate
profits are at an all time high now and they should be trimmed just a
little.

They might as well, they already treat trucks and their drivers like
outlaws, or at best "necessary evils".
