Because food prices aren't high enough already.

This is definitely not the time to be restricting the transportation of goods.

I hope trucking companies pull out of that shithole of a state.

They won't. Too many mega carriers like prime and swift that will continue to do business there.

In 2017 or so I got into a brand new 579. I went from Billings to Denver and dropped a load, then picked up in Colorado Springs. About 30 miles east of Denver, the engine stop warning came on and I was instantly governed to 5mph. After God knows how expensive of a tow back to Denver and over a week in the shop diagnosing, I was rolling again. The company I worked for paid over $12,000 to this shop over a malfunctioning def dosing valve, a $200 part.

If that had been my truck and I'd only had 10k in operating capital saved up and no credit, I'd have instantly been bankrupt with a perfectly fine engine and a minor issue with the emissions system.

Fuck California. Fuck carb. Fuck all that shit. They tout their agriculture like they're hot shit, but they can't grow anything if we didn't haul thousands and thousands of bees to and from Georgia, Alabama, Florida, and more on a yearly basis.
