The 25 year lane
In the road lane today.
Earliest units of this chassis turn 25 in this month, counted from production.from. Each truck's own date of manufacture decides, to the day, under 49 USC 30112(b)(9).
The last units turn 25December 2018
The newer lane
EPA certificates.
EFNamed 2010 to 2015
Named twice for mini trucks, model years 2010 to 2015. Two more 659 cc three cylinder families run to 2026 unnamed, and 659 cc fits only the EF.
A truck under 25 can come in only as governed off road equipment, and only if its engine family held an EPA nonroad certificate for that model year. No kei engine family was certified for mini trucks before model year 2010, so a truck built after 31 October 2001 and before model year 2010 has no federal door until its 25th birthday.
