I live in Indiana. Saw the sign saying it was illegal on '07's at a Love's station.

confused

ok. i have an '05 so if i read this correct i will be okay with the ULSD providing i use PS/MMO which i already use.

i deliever cars and had a dealer tell me the other day that the pre "07s will be worth more in the near future. he said that they were actually going to appreciate.

does this make sense? not to me as i have never heard of a vehicle with miles on the clock going up in value.

The market will ultimately decide. I think it will depend on (1.) the price premium the emission-compliant '07 trucks command and (2.) the service experience of the '07 trucks. I have a friend who sells to the Class 8 (OTR tractor) manufacturers and users, and he said the trucking companies have pre-ordered a lot of '05 and '06 trucks to avoid purchasing the '07s, at least initially. His company has been booming in '05 and '06 but are expecting a substantial sales downturn when the '07s hit the market.
