Additionally, Daimler Gliders also had a booth similar to past years with 3 trucks In it, I have pies of that as well if you're interested.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need anything else.
Thanks!

RE: Steve's voica-maii on possible tractor test program
Looks like weTl be able to provide at least one glider, more if you have time to te s t A Volvo test article as welt, if you d o n 't already have "modern product4' data for comparative purposes.
Two good places to start:
1) Test program: HDDS? Chassis dyno operation at RMC points? GHG 5S/65/ARB transient?
2) Scheduling: Soonest you can test? How long should we plan for each truck to be in Aim Arbor? I can be available for a discussion before 9, between 10 and 12, sad between 2 and 5, (All Eastern times). I'll try to tie in JefFM ariey as well.

EDJJ01620_00005245
CiZIZZ'Z!" Vehicle types: One "western style", andone more modern aero design. riXOCCZCaJ Engine types: One "Fitzgerald rebuild"..this is typically a Detroit Diesel, and should have a Fitzgerald SD plate, including Fitzgerald aerial number, or the cold side of the engine. The second can be a remanufactoted'engine, from E>>or CAT, Ha we p?des to Uav away riots? Cummins. One of these engines should be without GR, and the second with EGR if such a glider exists.
Any combination of the above "specs15is acceptable {doesn't matter which engine in which chassis,...}. After those two vehicles are tested, EPA spoke about a high mileage unit, so in the range of 400,000 miles or so. But let's hold that request for now and discuss later.
SCHEDULE
EPA said that ideally they'd like to have the two vehicles simultaneously fori weeks, but they recognized that this could be impractical or too costly, if this is too unreasonable' to even approach the customer, then let's say the first vehicle for two weeks, and then the second for two weeks on the heels of the first, (Pm sure that 3 weeks each is a better situation for them, so if that's possible...and let's see about cost}, EPA is ready to star! as early as Sept IS, so as close to that date as reasonable, The trucks should be delivered to their facility in Ann Arbor.
COST
Pkv'ie g?\e me an idea of what soil of charges w ell t?e incurring. Tills may curtail out ambition somewhat

Hi Bill.
Thanks for the quick reply. I'm optimistic that EMA as a whole is coming together on this issue too. Jed might have shared with you that we're already drafting comments that we'll eventually share with owr members for consensus building, when the time is right.
I read the NPRM today, and f ll be following up with EMA's attorneys hero because there arc legal arguments in the NPRM that confuse my engineering mind. I don't follow the argument In J* Glider kits. Regardless of what eventually gets installed into a glider kit, the kit would seem new and incomplete on its owe, which to me would seem within scope of CAA 202.
I also noted the Agency's NPRM text m 103?.SOI, "...a new motor vehicle may include previously used parts." I presume that would include previously used engine parts.
Finally, the taxi under EO 13045 does not seem to take into account and/or build from the HD Phase 2 RTC, Appendix A to Section 14, pp. 1960-1968.
On a separate topic, it was good to see that OAR now has a confirmed AA.
Have a good Veterans Day weekend,

As you know, emissions testing requires deep skills and experience, and while the Tennessee Tech team is well intentioned, I believe that have a lot to learn. I guess that is good, since they arc a university, and learning is part of why you go to college.
