Found this on the side of the road in my neck of the woods...

 

Yep, that is a big campagn around here as well.
There are street signs, radio and TV spots all over.

We are also required to smog all deisels here as well.

where did you see that at?

 

I've also noticed one of those signs while driving down I-45 in Houston. As a matter of fact, someone has reported my truck to the state for excessive smoke. I was in Lake Jackson and someone wrote down my license plate #....a few days later I get a letter saying my truck has been reported for smoking and I need to take the steps to comply. It kinda ****** me off, but it just made me a little more careful at who I "smoke out."

 

Highway 36 northbound just as you get into Needville...the first time I saw it was last weekend when we were pulliing a 35' camper to Lake Somerville. I laughed so hard and just knew I had to stop on the way back and take a picture...
And I couldn't believe the number of bobmed CTD;s I sas at the lake!!

Hey Palmetto Kid, you get that boost elbow in yet??

 

Been there, done that, got the T-shirt to prove it. Well actually, the letter. Come to think of it, I don't have the letter anymore either. Round filed it.

You'll have to take my word for it.....

 

Yeah, I got it in. THanks!!

I cut off in Guy, so I miss Needville. We are headed to Somerville on the weekend of the july 31st. I have never been before, but everyone tells me its pretty nice.

later, and thanks for the heads up!

Yeah, it's nice...the water was up when we were there, but it should have gone down some since...we stayed in the Big Creek Marina Park on the Lyons side...don't forget the sunscreen, I burned my face and forehead pretty good...ya'll have fun!

 

this is from the clean air texas web site Does this Apply to Diesel Vehicles?

Yes, diesels are affected. The TCEQ is aware that some diesel-powered motor vehicles may emit brief puffs of smoke when first started, or while under a heavy load, such as passing or climbing a steep hill pulling a trailer. However, according to state regulations, no motor vehicle should produce visible exhaust emissions for more than ten consecutive seconds. This law applies to all vehicles, regardless of fuel type.

Hum, someone from Kalifornia musta moved there, Your doomed now

 

This is what I have been trying to get across to some people for a looooooong time. There is/was one on TDR that thought he "needed" to smoke at least three cars a day. When somebody advised him of the potential problems he basicaly to him to go pound salt. We really need to be careful here guys and gals..........
