Thanks for the response Adam. Being a CA native, I don't blame those who don't want to play the CARB game ($$$). It's strict and that's why there are only two available CB's here. The CSC TT250 and the SSR XF250. It's just the way it is and we're used to it.
It's the rest of the states that really should be dealt with though. CA is a HUGE market...but so are 49 others. I'm not sure what retooling may need to occur. Most other states don't require the smog pump and purge can to be road legal, as they do here in CA.
It will be interesting to watch and see how this unfolds. Keep us in the loop on any new news, please.
