Yeah, but the scrubbers don’t help CO2, which is the most important pollutant these days.

The hybrid truck could run an inverter off battery (in theory), and cycle the engine on and off. A dirt cheap generator (Predator 8750 from harbor freight) runs 8–12 hours on ~5 gallons (the spec sheet doesn’t give tank capacity)

How many gallons per hour does an idle truck burn?
