Glider kit is pretty much the definition of skirting epa regulations.
That is NOT what they were originally. Back when engines were actually good, and guys fixed their own equipment, it was a great option for a million mile, wornout, beat to death over the road truck that had been well-maintained. Say you had a truck with 1.5 million on it, you had replaced engine, trans, rear ends, but truck was used up. Or, you end up hitting a deer or jackknifing on a icy road. Buy a glider, swap everything over, you have a new truck.
It was abused and that's why it went away. |
