Like you said took years to see the results. In 1994 wife had a new Ford escort wagon . Basically a Mazda I was driving a 1970 oldsmobile delta 88 convertible. My first new vehicle was a 2008 GMC Savanna extended wb .

They were cleaner than their older counterparts but still produced tons of emissions each year. If they were so clean why do they impose new regulations to clean them up more. And new cars still dump tons of emmisions into the atmosphere every day
