    That’s one of the laughable things in the article. They keep talking about the emissions and safety but they’re talking about the older vehicles that are being used in the US because the older vehicles are the only ones that are allowed to be used in the US. They don’t even come close to mentioning the new vehicles that are being made that have all those safety features and better emissions.

    It’s a plain and simple fact is that these vehicles threaten profit margins of the dealerships that sell the unnecessary monster trucks that are primarily sold in America.

    P.S. The emissions thing is especially stupid since trucks tend to be exempt from a lot of emissions regulations anyhow.
