California’s anti-emissions Advanced Clean Trucks (ACT) regulation will go into action on January 1, 2025, meaning citizens will be banned from purchasing motorhomes weighing over 8,500 pounds.
Oregon, Washington, Massachusetts, New York, and New Jersey have passed similar legislation, aiming to persuade people to buy zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs).
In a video going viral online, one California man delivered an epic breakdown exposing the Democrat-led policy as total lunacy.

Democrats have just BANNED buying new motorhomes in multiple states starting January 1, 2025 to achieve their extreme environmental agenda:

Some of the states will reportedly be preventing motorhomes from driving through their territories unless they have proof of a carbon emissions check posted on the vehicle.
The man in the viral internet video said, “They expect you to have an electric 40,000, 30,000-pound motorcoach. Yeah right!”
He also pointed out most RVs are low-milage vehicles that owners only drive 3k to 5k miles per year on average.
Answering the question, “Which RVs Are Affected?,” MSM.com explained, “Unfortunately, most popular motorhomes fall victim to this ban:”
- Class C RVs: These cozy campers, often built on van chassis, will be off-limits.
- Super C Motorhomes: These powerful rigs, built on truck chassis, are also banned.
- Class A Motorhomes: The granddaddies of the RV world, including diesel pushers and gas motorhomes, are out.
The outlet also admitted electric motorhome options are limited with the technology not yet at the point where full-size RVs can be powered without fuel.
For now, Americans looking to purchase a motorhome can buy them from other states if they’re living in one of the six states banning the sales.
However, it’s possible that similar legislation is introduced at the national level, especially if Democrats get back into power at any point in the future.
