NJDEP spends time on facebook market place looking for deleted trucks.....
What a waste of tax payer dollars
Diesel KnOcK!..........................
How would NJ have any jurisdiction should he choose to sell it to someone in a free state (that permits off-road use in current condition)?
I am not really sure, I am sure he could fire sale it to someone with a trailer in another state, the state couldn’t do much about it
But he would have to do it quickly or face something like a 15K a day fine
Diesel vehicles are considered commercial and follow a strict guideline in the state
Put it on a trailer, take it out of state, sell. 3 easy steps.
Rent a storage unit and park the truck for however long it takes to get State residency and register it in that State with another State’s tags. problem solved.
Stinking communist bastards continue to run roughshod over the servile & indolent Aamerican sheeple...
There are no limits to tyranny...
There is no end in sight!
“

I’ve seen the Roadkill guys swap diesel for gas and vice versa so its possible.
Don’t know how expensive it would be but if it were me, at this point I’d do it just for spite regardless of cost......the LAST thing I’d do is crush it......EFF that noise.
Challenge:
Every FReeper who still has an FB account (you know who you are) make a fake listing for a modified vehicle listed in NJ.
That ought to keep ‘em busy.
And if FB bans you, ACES!!!
What state isn’t going to inspect the emissions equipment to license it there? That’s a non-starter.
Why would he remove the emissions equipment in the first place?
He should probably remove the engine and sell the rest of it as parts.
This is all wrong, but they probably claim current jurisdiction and short of the $10k repair, will start to assess fines against him as there is no other legal way in their view to reolve this unless he destroys it. Even of he tows it to another state along with himself and all of his possessions, they will still go after him for all of the overdue fines and hound him for the rest of his life. Be a shame if due to publicity of this, the truck gets stolen and is never seen in NJ again.
His state may not be able to do anything about it, but if the truck crosses state lines the EPA will get involved. The deleted exhaust system is a huge red flag any more.
First mistake was even hinting that he modified the Ram expecially in a stoopid state like NJ. Second mistake was screwing with the interweb. He broke the STFU rule for anything important.
Idiot. He should have sold it as is with no mention of “modifications”. Except in private between seller and buyer.
Question from a non-diesel dude. The EHR is not operating under heavy load so what what advantage is there to removing it?
“Why would he remove the emissions equipment in the first place?”
Other than to get twice the power at half the fuel consumption, yea what is this guy thinking?
Tuner, straight pipes. Probably black smoke. Hate to be behind him at the stop light!
Why was the emissions equipment deleted?
Did he do that himself or was it stolen?
If he did it himself, did he sell it (for platinum recovery) or did he keep the parts or did he trash them?
It really sounds like the NJ government agency has tried to work with this guy.
