Engine Review Post October 2002 – January 2004
Engine Evaluation Table – Last Update 1/19/04 Proprietary & Confidential
Post October 2002 Engine – Evaluation Results • Purchase price over $5,000 per engine. • MPG loss 3-5%. (10 years of progress – lost!) • Oil drain interval same as post 1998 engines. • One engine teardown @ 250,000 miles was normal. • Driver feedback – “acceptable – good performance.” • Reliability first 250,000 miles (30% life) is ok. • Some early failures of every significant EGR component i.e. VGT turbo, EGR valve, VPOD, sensors, pipes, EGR coolers. • Concerned about operating costs/reliability as vehicle ages: • Warranty ends. • More parts to maintain. • High cost parts. • More complex troubleshooting. • Significant improvements have occurred since 10/2002.

Diesel Particulate Filter Concerns Catalyzed Particulate Filter • Initial and replacement price (precious metals?). • Active regeneration process. • Maintenance interval. • Maintenance process. • No heavy truck experience. • Requires low sulfated ash oil (possible unique oil). • Reduced life with LSD fuel. • Overall operating cost.

Government Regulations Increasing Engine Costs Total Cost of ’02 and ’07 Engines * Revised 2/2004 Proprietary & Confidential
SNI View of 2007 • SCR should be approved. • Must receive adequate representative field test engines by mid-year 2005. • Cost estimates are much higher than EPA’s estimate. • EPA should reforecast costs. • A government funded financial incentive is needed. • Without a successful field test AND incentive. • Significant prebuy followed by a long interval no/slow buy. • Cost/recovery challenge. • Cumulative cost impact – i.e. health care, litigation, insurance, hour of service changes, driver wages. • Raise prices – lose freight. • Transition – compete with old technology. • Support Clean Air • “Win-Win” solution needed.
