Now I wonder what the diesel emissions of a 20 year old ford f350 are. A lot, I imagine.

Well it wasn't that long ago that a study found that school buses had many times the acceptable levels of pollutants inside because they sat idling while waiting for kids.

All I have to do is watch the local bus service, mostly the city one, to see how bad some vehicles pollute. So let us be honest here, the government needs to clamp down hard on all vehicles in its employ at all levels even more than going after consumer cars

I rode the bus every day as a child, and I will always associate the smell of diesel exhaust with the inside of the school bus, because it always smelled like exhaust.
Or worse, the 20 year old dump truck and bulldozer used by the local excavating company.
Or a 30 year old container ship
