I do not think such a ban will ever occur here, and I have no intention of going to any of those cities in my truck, so I'm not too concerned about it.
If diesels are ever banned in Montana cities, I will probably be long dead before it happens, so I'm not very concerned about that, either.
I can see it happening in some cities such as LA. As the tolerance for air pollution drops it is a logical step to improve air quality. I have read a couple of other spin off articles of this one and the one thing that has been stressed is it is not about global warming or climate chage or any other political hot button. It is simply about air quality. I think you are right though. It will be slowest to come to North America. Some european countries are going much further. Norway, Holland etc will completely ban any vehicle with internal combustion engines by 2025 and 2026. So yah, depending on where you live in the world it will come sooner than later. Peer pressure will move it forward from there. When one cities air is literally 100's of time cleaner than another cities public pressure will force the change.
Until then we'll get a few more miles out of our motorhome.
