Ive been looking around trying to find an answer to this and cant seem to find one. Im wanting to get a 80s ford pickup but if i found something i liked from different years id probably get it but what i wanted to know was what trucks have to pass an emissions test in massachussetts as i want to throw a true dual exhaust on whatever truck i do get and some other things that would likely fail it for emissions. anyone know what years are exempt from emissions testing? or any article out there about it i couldnt find anything on the rmv website

 

I'll try to remember to check with our inspection station tomorrow and see what I can find out for you!!!

 

thanks the help is greatly appreciated

 

You need to find Mass CMR 60.02 (section 3c).

In there, you will find that any light duty nondiesel vehicles with a model year earlier than 1996 is exempt.
