Thumbs down Thanks edge update

Just got this tonight from Edge products. watch your tails boys and girls. Looks as though someone might be in kahoots with epa and or getting pressure from said entity and have folded like a babies diaper.




Dear ************:

Earlier this week we received the following message/letter (below in bold) from Russ Deane, General Legal Counsel for SEMA. We believe this message has important information that may pertain to your business so we are passing it along for your benefit. Furthermore, many of our dealers have asked us about our point of view on this issue. In July of 2011 we issued a letter stating our position on this matter. We have attached the July letter to this message for your reference. If you have any questions regarding this matter please contact your sales representative or our customer service teams.

We appreciate your business and hope to see at the SEMA show in November!



Dear SEMA Member:

We have recently learned that CARB and EPA are planning significant enforcement action against companies that make, distribute or install tuning products for late-model (2007 MY and newer) diesel trucks that are equipped with diesel particulate filters (DPF) if such tuning products offer any of the following features: (1) the ability to re-tune/re-program the truck to operate while the DPF is removed; (2) the ability to turn off urea (exhaust fluid) injection; and/or (3) the ability to defeat, disable or turn off any other required emissions control system on a late-model diesel truck. Products with these features cannot be legally sold for on-highway usage. If you make, sell or install products with these features and they are sold strictly for legal racing use you must be able to make assurances to these regulatory agencies that these products are NOT being used on the street on registered vehicles. If you cannot make those assurances we encourage you to carefully consider your business practices so as to avoid possible penalties.

SEMA is very interested in protecting you and your future and we hope you’ll find this information valuable. If you have any questions please contact Jim McFarland, Consultant for SEMA, regarding compliance with these regulatory agencies.

Sincerely


John Russell Deane, III
SEMA General Counsel

sounds just like when the tried to sue the tobacco companies for giving people that smoke cancer...

or when they tried to hold gun manufacturers responsible for someone using it in a crime...

Always trying to place blame on someone else....

Companies are just trying to CTA from the EPA. Tell you the truth, I can't blame them.
