Last thing people in the Middle East are concerned about is Clean Air . They burn off more Natural Gas a day that can heat every home in a America for years. So America cleans up its air quality and the rest of the world polutes theirs. Got news for ya the air circles the globe. Fukishama ring a bell. If we in America mandate clean air then the CEO of EGOC should go after American trucking for his Market and forget about these other countries...imo.would love to hear otherwise and prove it. Hell in China they build coal plants weekly with no stipulations on air quality.
Actually today new 2010 EPA mandates are cleaner at the exhaust then the air you breathe in LA everyday. 2010 trucks are more then 100 times cleaner then the earlier technologies and the new carbon mandates we are seeing now will come from increasing the fuel mileage and not the exhaust systems.
If you increase the fuel mileage by 50% then you reduce the amount of emissions per mile by about the same.
The reason why they are targeting the overseas markets first in my honest and very versed opinion is we have sent almost all old trucks in the US overseas the last ten years. Everyday from Baltimore there is many more leaving. the used market price for a US truck is double overseas for the price then here in the US. I personally have taken ten to the port and see them leave by the thousands of every month.
The average life span for a US fleet right now is right at 4 1/2 years and they are trading and with the economy growing again that life span will change to below three years.
With this in mind the company I feel is targeting the best markets and that is overseas. Now we will have a market here for it and that market will grow if they can get an original OEM to use these filters. that will take more time then going overseas and we might see testing in the next year but that is time consuming for the large truck builders.
Till that is done there best market is overseas as that is were the largest majority of 2003 and older trucks are now.
