I have spoken to several customers that have personal trucks that
are over 19500 GVWR that are used exclusively as a 5th wheel to
haul recreational travel trailers and horse trailers.

Much like the motors homes that were excluded because these were
typically used by people with fixed incomes, the owners of these
vehicles are also on fixed income.  Most of them are retired people
that have no source of income to set aside for purchase of new
vehicles.  As you well know the only way to address the NOx for
this regulation on older trucks is with replacement of these very
expensive vehicles.

These vehicles are not being used for commercial use.

These vehicles need to be excluded from this regulation.

Thank you.
