With the government stepping in and stepping things up, it is becoming much more vital to retrofit your truck fleet. With NO2 being released into the air as people drive, there has been a big push to retrofit buses and trucks in order to lower diesel emissions. While this may seem standard, there are some key things to think about when you go to get this done. Here are several tips to keep in mind when you want to retrofit.
The most important thing to remember in any driving is that you should be alert and paying attention at all times. as you drive down the road you need to be aware of the many obstacles that may come in your way, and these obstacles are different for every road.
When you are sending your truck in to be retrofitted, it takes a clear idea of what you want and how you want your truck to perform. There are many mechanics and dealers out there ready to offer their services so sometimes it can get really confusing. The major thing that you need to think about is whether that particular company will be around selling the same parts 2-3 years from then. Will you be able to come back and get maintenance and repairs done on it when you break down or the parts stop working.
As you strive to be a more focused driver, you will reap the benefits of safety that are bound to come your way.
Some retrofitting will actually merit tax deductions from the government. This is due to the surge of environmental concerns that have been presented in the past 10 years. The concerns are in large part due to global warming and other issues that are arising because of pollution.
Getting On the Road
When you are looking at getting on a retrofit program, it is important to get the latest and greatest. Too many people are going with cheaper and that doesn't give you the quality that you need or the efficiency either. These products will not be able to pay for themselves if they don't last. It is important to understand that buying the latest technology is well worth the initial investment as it can save you money on fuel sometimes or it can make your car5 much more efficient in the end.
Making sure that your vehicle is in top running condition will help you to be even safer on the road. If you are able to maintain your car regularly, you will find that accidents are much less likely, and you will be much more successful on your runs.
When it comes to lowering carbon output into the atmosphere, people can take a proactive approach by customizing their cars. There are many people who do their own retrofitting in order to promote fuel efficiency by converting their particular model to natural gas or making it so they can run on electricity.
Keeping yourself educated on safety rules and various conditions will help you to be able to prepare and react properly to many different situations. Whether you are driving through the mountains in the winter, or through the desert in the dead of summer, knowing the dangers of your surroundings will help you to keep every trip as safe as possible.
Make sure that you do your part by increasing the efficiency of your car. Your pocket book will thank you and so will the billions on earth who are breathing polluted air as we speak. The more people who step up to the plate and get their cars, trucks, and buses retrofitted, the more we will be able to decrease on emissions. Ultimately this is a team effort and everyone involved will end up benefiting one way or another.

When the California Air Resource Board's diesel emissions regulations first came out, Michael Schwartz, now President of FleetServ, started getting calls from panicked Fleet Managers looking for straight-forward information and compliance assistance. While FleetServ (formerly known as ACT Compliance) was first formed to meet this need, over time it has evolved into much more.
