This dude DOES NOT deserve to lose 17 years of service... TAKE NOTE!
Especially since our own govt ignores the laws they write for us peasants . Military vehicles drive on our roads daily and have zero emissions equipment . The morons writing these laws take private jets all over the world pushing this bullshit of "saving the planet" and pollute more in 1 month than all 5 of the drivers will in my household in a lifetime. Until these hypocrites lead by example I will not comply either.
Screw the EPA. These bastards will be done with all this over regulation epa bs once Trump gets back into office. Screw clean energy and going green. It's all bs
Honest question do automakers deserve to lose millions or billions when they settled with their EPA when they had to pay their fines? After doing so they all claimed to admit to no wrong doing.
After watching EPA doing its thing over the last decade you come to find out, just how hypocritical some diesel owners have been regarding the 2010 EPA Diesel regulations from the big manufactures to the small business owners.
So here lies the hypocrisy: Ha! Ha! Ha! VW you got caught with making your ecm tell lies when doing an electronic emission test now you have to pay billions. "Oh, that's so funny!" Of course Volkswagen Group wasn't the only one to have to pay a major fine it was one automaker that just had to pay the largest at the time.
Every manufacturer from, Ford, GM, and former FCA,. I think even Toyota, & Nissan also got EPA fined for violating the Clean Air Act for their Diesel made trucks. When they all settled their civil penalties no diesel owner stood up with the manufacturers when they all got heavily fined. There never was no rally cry for the Automakers, however because they never made big time news that ruined the name brand image truck owners would continue to buy the newer diesel trucks regardless of the fines they had to pay.
After the VW Group Diesel scandal VW owners even started having a class action lawsuits brought against VW. They expected their diesel cars would be clean Air compliant, so they stood on the side of the EPA.
In the last few years right after Diesel Brothers got fined in Colorado the automotive news media took notice so now you a bunch of diesel owners defending the small shops for selling and or installing illegal emission systems that should have been meant for off road use only, The Diesel Auto shops didn't protect themselves with making customers sign waiver forms or asked owners the question are you using a your diesel delete off road use only before selling or installing illegal aftermarket parts? Yet when all the diesel manufactures were caught violating EPA regulation diesel owners weren't real quick to defend the manufactures when They all got with big time fines. They got laughed at. So in 2018 the world changed. Did America deserve to lose the option for a diesel engine choice for cars and 1/2 trucks? Why do you think VW doesn't sell diesel cars in the US anymore. Take note! After decades all the Auto manufactures were selling millions of diesel cars and light trucks but after the VW diesel scandal the diesel engine vehicles dried up faster than a VW TDI.
@@scottivlow9962 we really gotta roll back to 90's standards if we really want to have the economy that the government is used to leeching off of. Wink wink.
No one deserves to lose an unumerated right like this. What they doing should set everyone at maximum alarm
The epa being armed and raiding a house is extreme to the max. It’s not like he was dumping nuclear waste in the river.
oh THAT is legal. That nuke plant up on oregon did that without any issue.
You can thank obozo for that little gem.
@@shawnhayhurst9445 He was only following Hitler's playbook.
It's absolutely ridiculous and shows that they have nothing better to do. These leftist run alphabet agencies are quite literally destroying the country (this is especially true of CARB among other insane California agencies).
@@Sovereign_Citizen_LEO They are harmless since they have to charge you with violating an actual law to prosecute you. You shoot the witnesses that lie on the stand before cross, and their testimony is thrown out as well.
Learn to USE the system, don't fight it.
What the government is doing is out of control. Scary.
Brother, think of ILLUMINATI groups in our government or secret society.
It's not our government, it's a private corporation foreign to our laws attempting to impose a democratic dictatorship. We have a self governing republic, not a democracy. Democracy is communism where there's only two classes of people, the very rich and the very poor. The propagandists are now propagating that we will own nothing and be happy. That's why every agency funded by the District of Columbia is becoming weaponized to enslave America.
The founders would have never let it get this far
The founders would have already been full Rambo.
We have to many pu$$Y ass people in the usa now
Unfortunately I feel targeted because the majority of us diesel enthusiasts lean politically right. When was the last time you saw a diesel pickup with a "I'm with Her" sticker? Like never! They hate freedom loving patriots.
Just wait until all the new IRS agents are hired. Then we'll really be targeted.
Biodiesel and creating your own fuel fascinates me. Growing sunflowers and blending home made deisel fuel is my goal. All fueled by a film on PBS where these women drove their diesel van across the US and recycled old cooking oil into diesel fuel right in the hotel parking lot with simple tools. I have been sold on this concept ever since. We can grow and blend our own diesel fuel and don't need all these big oil corps. dictating to us. Fuel and or energy independence can come to reality for some people, but never as long as fedgov and bigoilcorp both control the topic. Otto Deisel saw what the future could be, but never with today's corrupt bureaucracy stinking up the place.
I hope this guy ... finds himself a very very sharp lawyer. EPA and feds are getting agressive.
He doesn't need a lawyer, all he needs is pen and paper, claiming his own court, and prosecuting each man and woman who trespassed upon his property. ( the right to contract).
The accuser must present proof that he has caused harm, injury, or damages to another man or woman.
There must be a man or woman who has filed a proper claim for a court to move forward.
A legal fiction can not make a claim of wrongdoing, the fiction can only complain.
They are loosing all they have the gov and ds are falling with all it here corrupt ways they are all in panic mode.
Protecting the environment is one thing I can support. With that said, the jackboots at the EPA have been (in my personal opinion) running wild and imposing unlawful fines because there is no oversight. As far as emissions go, I am not an engineer, but it would seem to me with all the advances in computers, sensors, etc . Clean emissions could be achieved without Catylitic converters, EGR, DEF, etc.
we have been able to achieve this for many decades now. but big oil doesnt want anything that may increase fuel efficiency too much because it will inhibit their money flow
Does no one remember when cummins first did this? No Def needed to the government tried to sue them. Fell thru.
@@mustangdemon87 I had not heard, as I only getting seriously interested in diesel power around 2015, as I was looking at getting a sprinter or transit van for work. Could you elaborate ? Would like to do more research. Ihave a '21 F250 w/ 6.7 power stroke. But heard average failure of the power / economy robbing smog crap that thr jackboots are requiring begin to fail @ 125 000 miles. And due to other articles I have read. I wont do a delete, as some states commercial vehicle inspectors will pull over out of state plated vehicles for a "courtesy inspection"
@@dondalphinjr5953 2012 is the last year for cummins without def. The longevity of the def and emissions strongly depends on how you drive it. If you do short trips, drive like a normal truck guy,(not like a grandma) haul heavy thru stop and go traffic, or idle for more then a min or two all severely lower the life span. They must have regular long highway trips to preform the burn offs or Regens. You can do forced Regens but it uses a ton of fuel to heat that puppy up.
@@mustangdemon87 most of my driving is short trips, around town, try to drive like a normal person, about every 4 to 6 weeks, I get it on the freeway for 30 to 40 miles or more. I notice on my trips from Utah to San Diego, I use more DEF I'm guessing from all that stop & go in S.D. Have road trips planned for every few months, as far as forced regen. I can't find anyway to perform it on mine, but earlier year models do. I have heard rumors about the regen by products have contributed to the decrease in bee population, plant life along roads, not mention the toxicity level is off the charts
Delete the EPA!
and CARB!!!
Why don't these agents go to the southern border where they could be useful!!
Because it's about the money.
@@mustangdemon87 no its about CONTROL !The dem marxist party does not want any fossil fuel vehicles so they are behinde all this crap.Just look what they are doing to the 2A community and that is a constitutional RIGHT!
Because it does not fit their narrative.
At some point we need to wake up, get together and not allow our own people to be subjected to situations like these.
Cops are not your friends, no public servant is your friend. Here we have the farm animals having authority over the farmer. For starters end qualified immunity. Term limits. End civil asset forfeiture.
These videos should be sent to Local news outlets
Really? Did you not get the memo?
John thank you for your service and hope everything turns out well for you
There's recent US Supreme Court cases that ruled the EPA has LIMITED Authority. It was about the power plants regulations. There may be evidence there
This is likely driven by Democrat leadership pushing the EPA to overstep their authority. A couple in Idaho fought and won their case regarding the Obama Water of the United Stated where they illegally claimed control over millions of acres of private land. Biden reinstated this illegal policy. SCOTUS limited their authority. It took 9 years but they won a major decision limiting their authority. Vote Republican and get these morons out of office...
How do you not have more subs then 25k ? I find this one of the best resources lately for learning what is going on in motorsports and the EPA thank you for keeping us informed I love the content.
Thank you, we appreciate the support!
@@TheDieselPodcast Gale Banks sells a lot of diesel parts. I'm sure you tried to get him on your podcast. Keep trying. Good vids
The whole regulating the environment is a crazy concept to me. Especially when the government does way worse stuff than some emissions.
Or when the number one producer of emission CHINA is left to do whatever they want. China pollutes more in a single day the all of California does in 3 months.
I cant agree more! lets see, i live near traintracks and i watch all day and nite these freight trains travel and blow a shit ton of smoke out their stacks. I wonder if they are required to get those engines into compliance with epa or carb emissions? or excavaters on job sites that are in essence rolling coal out their pipes all day long, do you think they need to take that crain into jiffy lube and get it smoged? I doubt it. it boils down to rules for thee not for me, especially when you live in Cali. I also think that epa shouldnt be able to pass new laws on older trucks, there should be a grandfather clause.
It’s all performative and money grubbing. I used to do air emissions testing at refineries, manufacturers, chemical plants, plastics plants, etc…. All these facilities are required to purchase permits from the feds and state environmental agencies . The cost of the permits is based on the type of pollutants they emit (VOCs, O2, NOx, particulate matter, etc.) and the volume of each. They estimate what their emissions will be and pay for an initial permit to get started on any new process they put into production. Then when it starts running they’re required to provide a official testing reports outlining how much of what pollutants they’re emitting using official testing procedures set forth in the Code Of Federal Regulations. The permit holder is required to hire a 3rd party testing company who comes out with a mobile laboratory and uses specialized equipment, analyzers, collection apparatus, etc capable of real time monitoring of many pollutants and often do on site sample processing and provide immediate preliminary results in order to optimize processes then conduct official testing on actual production runs. The results are presented to the regulatory agencies and the customer upon completion. Results must be within the parameters of their permits. If the permit holder is unable to produce within the permit limits, they are in violation of that permit. To continue production as is, they just have to “amend the permit”…which just means pay more for permission to produce your product by increasing your permit cost commensurate with the increase in each pollutant being emitted. Pollute more, no problem, just have to pay more. And the testing is done by an outside contractor hired by the permit holder. The regulatory agencies may or may not have a monitor/inspector come out during testing to verify the scientist contractors are performing the testing per the SOPs and properly handling samples and calibrating equipment and using proper lab procedures and calculations, etc. There’s no way they can really verify everything’s above board without being prohibitively invasive. And they aren’t even always on sight to check anything. They do audit test reports sometimes where they go thru and check calculations and make sure the science is correct but it only catches people who make dumb mistakes or blatantly try to falsify results without being smart enough to do so. Bottom line is that the people doing the report work for the plant that needs certain results. If you know what you’re doing, you can easily manipulate results if you’re that kind of company and working for that kind of company. In my experience most permit holders legit want to be in compliance and not exceed their permits. The risk is pretty huge as they can lose permits if there caught cheating. But getting caught being over is a simple financial transaction. . The regulatory agencies for the most part are only regulating how fat of a check they receive on each permit. There are obviously limits they wouldn’t allow to be permitted. But they’re huge numbers. Pretty much any modern process producing anything in the states is designed to be within reasonable parameters, unlike China or India. Anything we can’t produce here within reasonable parameters they have made in China or India. Anything not super filthy they produce here, just has to maintain a margin that’ll cover the cost of the permit. It’s not about making the plants run while producing the lowest emissions possible, it’s about making sure they collect all the money they can based on their maximum allowable pollution levels.
Global warming is a scam .
It's criminal what they are doing who the hell are they to tell us what we can and can't do with our property but it's the government infringement, tyranny, and overreach is basically there thing.
First off John thank you for your service and god bless,
sorry to hear what our fabulous
Government we have 🙄 has done to you. It’s just wrong.
it is the duty of the people to depose of a criminal government
This is not so much about the EPA or the parts. Hence the more extreme plenties for individuals . This is about disarming the citizens of America which any felony or red flag law does.
Boom. It's a trap
They can get fd I do what I want
I agree it’s going after the heart of US. We need to start getting together guys/gals. We have to remember that it is always do as I say not as IDO. Want change? Start with changing the people.
KEEP UP THE GOOD FIGHT NEVER SURRENDER TO TYRANNY AT ANY COST GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY..HOLD THE LINE OF FREEDOM INTEGRITY JUSTICE TRUTH AND HONOR AT ANY COST
. PREACHER ONE OUT
Why is no one talking about military diesels? None of them have any type of emissions equipment. Does the government not care for the environment themselves? Why don’t they to live by their own rules?
It has nothing to do with emissions,it’s all about the money.
Because they are hypocrites to the max. And the assholes writing these laws take their private jets all over the world pushing this shit and pollute more than 1000s of private citizens... They get high on power.
Rules for thee not for me
You need to follow the money not the problem. Money trail always answers all.
Because everything would be dead in the water. They know all this crap doesn’t work
hell here in east tenn. we dont have these problems . we are still free down here. rocky top tenn.
For anyone who think that "off road" vehicles will be exempt all newer tractors and construction equipment has the same emission controls as "on road" vehicles.
Most think Racing, not construction
What about military issued vehicles??? They do not have dpf emissions bs and its because if they did death numbers during war would be higher.
@@shanegunter4215 also a guy on our SD forum just posted a bunch of F550's going to Ukraine at his local dealer. All diesel PS engines, Zero Emissions. Black fuel caps, 2 fuel tanks, a muffler & separate resonator where the DPF/SCR/DOC trash can usually resides, a clear block off plate (you know the ones they sell as illegal contraband,lol) on the EGR-Intake passage, no EGR parts, no EGR cooler, etc. Just stock OEM bypass parts reside. Much cleaner under the hood and I'm willing to bet,much cleaner inside the engine. Oh and also, the window sticker even says something about High Sulfur Diesel fuel.
Now, i understand that in other countries they have HSD still and also most military diesels are approved to run on various fuels in case of wartime shortages. But for a few countries to have to go to LSD and ULSD and suffer the consequences with the added Emissions, just crazy.
@@mikz86ta1 you hit the nail on the head. It's all about the money not the environment! Epa has gone after multinational companies for emissions before. But they have never touched China... hmm I wonder 🤔
Nope. Anything with epa certified equipment cannot be touched.
Doesn’t matter if it’s off road only, owned outright, or anything.
The IRS is arming 87k new agents why?.
I am a NJ resident and have been for over 10 years. The case of the kid scrapping his truck is not so black and white. He had the option of surrendering his engine instead of scrapping the whole truck. The NJ DEP fined me the same way they did that kid that scrapped his truck. Except my truck had been sold already for over a year by the time they fined me so I only had to pay the fine. But while talking to Tim Davis, whos name is on the form that you get in the mail, he presented the options that I would have had if I still owned the truck. One of them being surrendering your engine if you do not have the funds to return to stock. Have had to put a ton of customers trucks back to stock at the shop I worked at as well as have had few friends that got the same fine, one of which is scrapping his truck bc it is a 280k mile rotted out 6.4. Maybe one day I can share all these experiences on the show lol
I just watched a video of Mark Levin where he talks about a unanimous supreme court decision based on excessive fines and how they violate the 8th amendment. Worth looking into. Especially where a precedent has already been set.
Is the EPA now a branch of the military?
Arm the EPA, arm the IRS, defund local police, remove funds from Military budget....lol. Forget about logic
The government has several hundred planes in the air each day. cargo ships dump massive amounts of emissions but don't save your truck!
This is batshit crazy, but having dealt with the federal government personally I am not totally surprised. I don’t wish for any in the diesel truck industry to get fined or get charges brought against them, but why are they messing with this guy ??? He basically just sells parts. If the manufacturer can legally make and sale the parts how is it illegal for this guy to sale parts he doesn’t even make. To simplify this - this is the same as O’Reillys or Autozone etc catching federal charges or getting fined for selling parts. The parts stores don’t manufacture anything they just sale the stuff. Why not go to the source of the problem which would be the manufacture, although I don’t want them to have to endure any of this either but at least they probably have the money to pay the fines for the most part unlike the “little guys”. It’s Complete government/EPA overreach bullshit!!! Welcome to Ameri-China-Russia, you can buy & own the truck with your hard earned cash but you can’t work on it or fix it without our say so !!!!
Because little guys like us have no chance if we don't pay. Big Corp has money an lawyers to fight it. They only go after the easy battles to get the money.
Bing bang bam. Tyranny right in the face. We are all trying to say be good. But when you back a tiger into a corner, he's got to be a tiger at some point..... Please watch after friends and family. Don't rat out your neighbor for some silly little tiny thing. Try to help people so maybe they don't rat on you for being free. Everyone should embrace freedom instead of fearing others freedom.
@@marshmower you win best comment of the internet what you said is 100% on target people need to help eachother out when they can everyone needs to watch out for friends and family and for God sake if your neighbors lean in the opposite direction politically you need to just leave then alone don't try to get them in trouble with the law never call the police for anything THEY WILL NOT HELP OR MAKE ANYTHING BETTER they can only make things worse then they are handle your own business and help your neighbors handle their we out number the police and the criminals put together nobody should have to stand alone
Also I believe if you put on your website for off-road use only that would make a difference I'm not 100% on that but I know that certain things that are not road legal specifically say in the like in Summit will say for off-road use only or it will say not for Road use and I think they use that as one of their gray areas cuz they can just decide and say that you're not going to use it for off-road only even though you've never driven the truck on the road and it's only been on your personal property
Don't forget to also say the oli filters are not for suppressor use. Filtering oil only.
And the old long round lawn mower mufflers
I know of a similar raid almost 30 years ago in the San Francisco bay area. They raided his house,with his wife and small children watching, in kevlar with guns drawn. They threw him on the ground with a foot on his head and kept saying "why did you do?" He was entirely at a loss for what was going on.
A couple of weeks earlier he had hired a guy to haul garbage and miscellaneous stuff he no longer needed and were basically useless. Well, instead of disposing of the truck load or maybe more than one,it's been a long time. The guy found a ravine out of sight of pretty much anybody and just dumped it there. Apparently mail and other things that had his name, business addresses etc. So the raid was for illegal dumping. I don't know of anyone who didn't think it was excessive or just insane.
Is it time to start yet?
25:00. He could easily sell the truck out of state. Hell, I'm looking for a 2nd diesel and I'm in GA.
We have carreer criminals being released everyday, and the government goes after someone selling truck parts. What's next?
What’s crazy is the government deletes all their vehicles
The only way to stop the EPA, is to vote out the entire #DemonCratic party
Car enthusiasts are beyond tired of these out of control clowns
As much as I agree with you, this shit was under TRUMP, so was Kory Willis case. Republicans are just as guilty as the D party. They just pretend to be on our side. Just look at who they all have been the past 3 years, look at their voting record!
Word
But electric cars drive on our roads tearing up the blacktop with wicked torque and not paying any gas tax.
They do tax them higher and higher licensing in my state
He said at one point that "The federal government makes you feel like the worst person ever." Why would you feel bad because the federal government failed at enforcing law properly for many years? Stop allowing them to make you feel like a bad person, because they didn't properly enforce law. They didn't do their job, which allowed many of us to improperly inform customers while doing our jobs. Stop allowing the government to treat you like a criminal when the fact is, they are running a money game by not properly informing the public of the laws they aim to enforce. Also inform them that the laws are written in a way that leaves a massive grey area making it impossible to know if our businesses are actually compliant. For the common man. Most diesel shop owners, don't study law before opening a shop. Quit feeling bad because the government is scamming you. You are the victim here.
I agree with you 100%. The government has thousands of pages of laws that many of the Common People haven't even heard of. There's certain states that still have certain laws that date back to the 1800s that were never enforced. There should only be one page the size of a standard notebook page and all the laws should fit on to that one page. Or it should be the laws are basically what the Ten Commandments were. All the bills that get passed in Congress should only be one page. And I should also be written in plain simple English and not legallise. If it can't fit on to one page then it doesn't need to be passed.
He needs to contact his JAG.
This is what you do. notice the man who brought charges against you to cease and desist immediately or you will require of him $$$$$$$$if your right to contract is interfered with again.
My emissions and MPG were actually better after a Hypertech tune and mods. I did a tail pipe test back in the day. One before and one after. It wasn't much, but it was below the previous test results. Then, I gained a little over 1 MPG and sometimes more with light driving. The truck also had headers, MSD ignition, K&N intake, jet MAF, and Casper throttle advancer. It was argued that I wouldn't pass.
A lot of aftermarket parts are more efficient than OEM parts. But they use the cheapest parts they can when they build them. Aftermarket stuff isn't cheap but are still cheaper to the average Joe than dealer parts .
@@donfronterhouse4759 I know what you're saying but that doesn't even fall under me. My after market parts were custom high performance and exceeded 10 fold to all the factory parts..
They don't care when I was stationed in Italy there are a ton of diesel vehicles getting 70-100mpg. I seen Ford focus diesels, trailblazers, VW bugs diesels but not allowed to have them here
@timothyberlinski2299 that's why I'm a firm believer that it is all about control.
Registered vehicles only. It has to be a road use vehicle to be illegal.
The dealership caused a criminal tort of conversion when they titled your truck at purchase.
Saw in a post where all LED headlights are illegal per a 1967 law even if their factory
I wonder if he could give it away?🤞🏻
So did the limited liability corporations only get fines and the sole proprietors are now facing felonies? 🤔
Yes, an LLC owned by another LLC in most cases. It insulates the owner.
Keep asking these types of questions. They control through consent and commercial laws. Don't mix private with public. Don't use your personal info, SSN, or any licenses. In fact, you can SPC and use trusts. Don't publish your private stuff. UCC-1
The process is the punishment!
So what year diesels trucks are safe to buy with no problem? Pre 2007 ?
Around 2008 most diesel trucks started having the dpf filters and around 2013 they added the def fluid. The 6.0 and LBZ don’t have either but have egr and cats from factory which you need to leave intact in some states, such as Nj. Your pre- emission go to trucks are the 12v cummins, 7.3, and lb7.
@@aerialboy55 or 24v and common rail Cummins are included.
@@janamaro5894 all common rails have egr or other forums of emissions equipment.
For Power strokes, 7.3 has no EGR, everybody blames Ford for the 6.0 problems, but the EPA killed the 7.3 in 2003.
You could buy any old square body Chevy and swap it to a Cummins 12 valve. My next project. Old truck, old motor, breaking no rules, at least none I know of.
Hey I would love to do a pod cast with you from the UK
Its not about treating people like people. Its about power. Theyknow they dont need guns and all the b.s. just remember your rights are government granted not god given you are apart of the police state
If i gotta get rid of my truck due to this, then im gunna drive it to the state capital and park it inside thier lobby and break the keys off in the ignition so they can deal with it. Fuck these liberal lawmakers. Everything they touch turns to shit EVERYTHING!
Where is the Video ?
We all have a right to work as we see fit and not by some arbitrary entity. If you haven't harmed anyone or damaged anyone's property there is NO CRIME. Look up the legal definition of what constitutes a crime Bouvier's Law Dictionary
STAND UNITED AGAINST TREASONOUS TRAITORS AND TRYANNY.. THANKS MY BROTHER FOR YOUR SERVICE GODS GOT YOUR SIX ANYTIME ANYPLACE ANYWHERE
Epa just shut down a Marine buddys' shop in Jax NC who only does racing diesel for not having stock quota
Really? Who was it? I’m stationed here and looking for a good diesel shop
Get involved. The 2 most important words in the entire interview
The height of covid? July 19th 2019?
Cover 2001-2007 Duramax please
This is just another example of the government agencies over stepping. I'm curious, as a former military member I know he has let his command know if his situation. Is his command at least being supportive of his situation??
What you tell people is it can physically be done but it's probably illegal to do therefore they know both sides
People need to begin focusing on the solution rather than just the problem. Advertising these raids is doing the governments job for them.. Solutions vary depending upon your situation of course, however the most important thing to do is limit your liability using corporate structure or LLC. If you own a shop, form a corporation solely to perform 'emissions' work. Have a unique bay assigned and charge rent and labor to that company, as well as separate payment routing. That corporate shell then becomes the target instead of your home or entire shop! They will take everything you have if you let them.
Let’s fight guys and gals
just tell me when and where bud.
How can they claim you can't change the tuning, when the manufacturer will not release the tuning so you can keep it the same.
Number one thing is get your lawyer.
Our government needs to change they delete their vehicles and nobody does shit but someone sells a few parts that is a vet that serves our country and protects us is getting this type of treatment it’s fucked up
Do ya'll know the real reason they are after plastic products? You can build a refining processor in your back yard that recycles plastic into diesel fuel purer than what they sell the public.
Are there companies selling delete parts outside of the USA? Can someone go to Canada or Mexico (for example) any buy parts? If so can the EPA go after them? With all that is going on here in the US I cannot imagine anyone continuing to sell parts deemed illegal by the EPA. Clearly at present the EPA is making examples of guys like this and given the fact that he did break the law (like it or not) he now has a real big problem.
Yes there are, yes it's legal in another country. The EPA perceived authority only exists in the US. So as soon as you cross back in...
He has a Legal issue but I can't see a jury convicting him holding him accountable for what other people do with the parts he sold them it's not illegal to have or possess these parts it's only illegal to use them on a public road
Only congress makes laws the EPA makes up rules kind of like the ATF makes up rules
Not to go off topic or anything but isn't the EPA off base? Isn't the diesel is a more efficient engine as the pollutants go into the air and quickly fall to the ground? Where the gasoline engine puts out pollutants which stay in the air? You ever been to San Diego? Look north and try to see a blue sky. You can't. That's because there are more cars in LA County than anywhere else in California. I remember seeing a blue sky in San Diego. Yes I'm that old. Now it's brown.
Every single person that gets fined by the EPA or any kind of trouble needs to all not pay it and refuse it and stand up against this b*******
i agree, but it comes down to when you go and get registration at the dmv they deny giving it to you because they are in bed with the epa and carb. If epa says your in non-compliance then they send that info to the dmv, and trust me i would love to give the dmv a middle finger but that just opens another can of worms.
Just abide by the law. You can have a race truck. Trailer it to the track. Thats freedom.
We really are at war in a sense!
Is it even possible to get tunes for EZ Lynk now?
Not that I'm aware of. You can't find anything online anymore
Last I heard they're still selling em but all compliant tunes
The ATF, The fbi, the EPA, or the shit on my boot, it's all the same.
Seek legal advice from JAG they can most likely lead you in the right direction. It doesn't hurt to ask.
This video is missing points. Yes, the message of selling certain parts for a VIN'd vehicle is clear. Yes, we all know certain Federal agency actions are perceived as an over reach of authority, this has to stop, repeated over and over. However, what are the specifics on this? What is the EPA claiming this guy, and other shops, are selling that is illegal? Parts and/or services? What modifications are illegal?
What you did was not a crime. It’s government over reach
Welcome to AMERIKA Comrade...
2019 is not the height of Covid!
Likely he has said or made a stand against something, the office s in his unit didn't like
Move TO FLORIDA
The problem is that we shouldn’t be asking big brother for anything we need to be telling them!!! They are supposed to do what we say!!! The clean air act is a joke, cars and trucks as a whole produce less than 1% of the pollution the big factories produce the rest. It’s all a huge scam (carbon tax) for the government to collect money. All the crap that they put on vehicles now days to make them “clean and efficient” are not reliable, not efficient(decrease fuel mileage). Why do you think the military vehicles don’t have any emissions at them?
The EPA overstepped their authority
must have been later than 2019, not the height of Covid.
Our forefathers would've went to war for less
Ya but the usa is now full a biotches
They DID go to war for far less.
Why does the EPA have armed agents.
Ps think I’m going buy twin turbo Bmw truck less headaches. Sad
I own both an 800hp 05 6.7 swapped Cummins, and also a twin turbo e90 BMW. I love my car and it's def got some giddy up full bolt on. However lol my truck sucks my eyeballs back into my head, and can get any job done while eating sports cars too. You cannot beat a modded diesel truck, especially a 4x4. The govt doesn't like anyone having fun without their tax or approval.
I would recomend a study of law , especially military law
Why the hell is the EPA acting like a police force?
Who made the EPA a jury and you have to "accept" a felony? No court involved?
Handed him a blank warrant that's against the law and every one of them can serve jail to prison time and not a signed warrant take them to court over that
Guess what else. Nobody requires to be licensed to retain and exercise your God given right to contract with your fellow (wo)man .
I'm willing to bet that he has a dog that loves him! Lmao!
Freedom you should be able to sell whatever you want to sell if the public dont want it then they wont buy but if the public wants it then that should the government what the citizens want are dont want
HOLD THE LINE OF FREEDOM INTEGRITY JUSTICE TRUTH AND HONOR AT ANY COST STAND UNITED AMERICA AGAINST TREASONOUS TRAITORS AND TYRANNY.PREACHER ONE OUT
Didn't we go through this in 1876 or 1776
They are acting unconstitutionally!!! As well as that how can the hand force it on all the little people when freight companies on cargo ships and cruise liners don’t have to worry about any of it you can’t have different laws for the same thing for different people
They’ll stop when the juice ain’t worth the 556squeeze.
Zoning laws in the country has failed due to the Foff & don’t come back responses by owners.
Give criminals and inch &
They take 10miles; if you haven’t noticed.
It’s time as citizens of a free nation we stand and cast our own shadows it will not do to try to stand in the shadows of any tyrannical government we have a 2nd amendment for a reason
This is all orchestrated. It’s a wrap people…
This is stupid that trucks owners can't be given the best advice about what you can legally do. What you can't do under any circumstance is manufacture or sell any type of autopart[s] that involve any type of emission diesel delete parts or that will alter a trucks emissions. This is the most easy question to answer.
If you do this you won't get hit with EPA laws. What can do outside 11 the States that don't enforce CARB EPA rules. You can do with your truck what ever you want with it. The EPA is not going to take action on your own vehicle. They are only going after illegal part sellers. However with EPA crack downs your not going to buy off road diesel delete systems like were 3 years ago when the EPA want after Diesel Brothers. There 11 States that have adopted CARB rules. You going to have to abide by those 11 States EPA in order to keep your truck legal.
There are legal and compliant diesel tuners that don't tamper with vehicles diesel emissions. With EPA enforcement there is no reason why has to have a diesel delete in order to race off road competition. If your 2010 truck or later is emissions compliant then you should be compete with all other trucks that are also compliant.
Your always going to have truck that are always going to have I want my truck to have such and such more horsepower and willing to put off road parts that tamper with every aspect of emissions to do it and will say hell with EPA. Ok then but if your truck can't one of 11 States smog test law I not going to feel bad for you if your State tells to get your truck back into compliance. However for everyone else go put the smoke in the air I don't care.
Why would the EPA be armed that makes no sense that should not happen
You should always answer your door with a big stick in your hand no matter what who it is.. I'm OLD I fart dust now and I never answered do without a big stick in my hand or I just get Fido to come with me
