Caterpillar exiting truck engine business.

Apparently the rumor is true. The EPA has killed Cat.
According to a Forbes Article Caterpillar has had enough of the hassle and ” Its Mossville, Illinois truck engine plant will stop producing the power plants on December 31, 2009 — just before even tougher clean-air rules take effect.”
This is sad.
