California abandons diesel truck ban and 3 other clean-air rules before Trump is sworn in

not abandoned... just postponed for four years, because the diaperking would have shot down the requests for waivers from the feds for these anyway.

I mean, it's not truly surprising. Electric trucks are not ready for prime time, either from range, infrastructure for them, or cost. And while Cummins actually does have plans for hydrogen-ification of their engines over the next few years, I have my doubts those will actually be all that effective (they are essentially just changing the heads to burn hydrogen, get the same general mpg which isn't great), which mostly just leaves you with hybrids, like Edison is testing. So long as they aren't abandoning Carb, it should be OK for now, although I have a bad feeling that Trump might try to mess with that too.
