    EPA Accuses FCA (Fiat-Chrysler) of excess Diesel Emissions

      fiat-chrysler-automobiles.jpg

    WASHINGTON -- The EPA has accused FCA of using similar software as, already found guilty VW,  that allowed excess diesel emissions in over 100,000 U.S. trucks and SUVs sold since 2014.

    FCA has declined to comment, and Reuters cites sources that declare that FCA will contest the claims.

    It is common practice for automakers to use secondary emission controls to protect engines from internal damage. When doing so the maker must proclaim and document it to the EPA.

    Currently, Fiat-Chrysler’s 2017 diesels are not certified for sale in the United States, forcing Chrysler to continue selling 2016 models instead.

    On Wednesday, January 11, 2017, Volkswagen was fined $4.3 Billion for criminal and civil violations in misleading regulators and selling vehicles that pollute.

      I randomly think of and daydream about New York City, with its 5 boroughs and abutting areas, often.

      Ding - ding - ding I've been to Hot Springs, Arkansas.  What a cool place with an interesting history, complete with gangsters.  There's a scenic viewpoint you can drive up to for a view over the town as well as that other tower in the town you can go to the top of for a 360 degree view for a little bit of coin. It was on a Missouri trip that looped into and out of STL during the pandemic and fall colors.  I wasn't expecting Arkansas to be as beautiful as it is.  I came into its NW border from south of Branson, MO.  Eureka Springs was a cool hippie-dippy town with the usual coffeehouses and gift shops.  It's the location of the nondenominational architecturally unique Throrncrown Chapel. Stunning places and views at Mount Magazine State Park as well as a precipice you have to drive down a graded dirt road to get to its parking lot:  Hawksbill Crag.  I was going to turn back, but I'm glad I went ahead with it. Very nice photo of you two!

      Quick Mopar photo, 1970 Roadrunner.    Faculty Jazz concert at the university where I work.    Lastly, spinning vinyl on my Linn turntable. Thanks for letting me share photos of what I have been up to!   Ohhh, and Road tripping with this gang, the debate team I coach. Awkwardly getting ready to have a photo taken after a tournament, Detroit.
