And Bonzo, since we all can't afford new 5th gens, V's, or Vettes, your argument is rather silly, I own a old 4th gen, and its now being held to today's motor emissions?

Well, it basically comes down to this.

The EPA is trying to stop people from breaking federal law. A law that's been in place for a very long time. Probably since the mid 70's.

Now they finally have teeth I guess.

The fact that the diesel boys are the first to have trouble kind of shows who is the most flagrant in violation.

Matt, I know you love running D and such but the "rip out all the emissions stuff and roll coal" had a target on its back since day one. A lot of visible smoke has a tendency to piss people off.
