The first question I'd ask is who would want to go down there?

Logistically it won't happen, we are now using 15ppm ultra low sulpher diesel as part of the 2007 epa standards, the mexican fuel vendors are still using 500ppm fuel as the standards set forth in 1993, so the mexican trucks will be spewing excess oxides of nitrogen while ours won't be able to use their fuel without damaging the emissions equipment in our trucks

not to mention why will a shipper pay what I'd charge to go there when he could hire a mexican to do it for a fifth the price...

Ok, I'll play the ignorant part here....

And the EPA is where......?

All the emission laws we have, in every state.....

lemme guess....don't apply...?
