Are there any laws concerning older working 18-wheelers, and at what age they must be retired?

Commercial tractor trailers are required to be inspected every year. As long as they pass inspection, they can be used continuously with no mandatory retirement. Most trucks get so worn out by 1,000,000 miles it's usually smarter to replace it with a better truck.

As long as they meet all the safety standards and can keep up with todays fast traffic there's no set retirement age.
