Deleted diesel

[PYBUCK]

Vehicle emissions inspections will still be done in high attainment areas. Basically all big cities/counties.

Get to know your local mom & pop inspection place. Crazy what you can get for a Benjamin, if needed!

Weighing my options, truck is mainly used to tow camper. Last summer after towing camper to Colorado I had to spend 3,500 to make it home. After not towing for a year I did last weekend and I'm looking at a higher bill to replace dpf filter. I'd rather not worry about reliability and have it deleted. Seems in Texas there not much issue but will be traveling to our spot in New Mexico more frequently and have an elk hunt in Colorado every year. Anyone with deleted trucks have issues in those states?

My last truck was deleted and the new one will be first time it gives me any trouble. On my last one I left the factory tip so it appeared to be stock. Like someone else said. Get a good tune so your not "rolling coal" and don't get a huge tip that makes tons of noise and you should be fine.

I didn't even wait for the warranty to be up on the last one. Delete, delete, delete.

Saying that, I'm buying a gas one this time around because i don't tow 24/7 anymore.

That's gas vehicles only. Zero counties emission test diesels. Although they could still fail a deleted diesel if they "visually inspect" that it's deleted, but with safety inspections going away that won't be an issue

There really is no down side to deleting all that Government nonsense. Especially now that vehicle inspections are going away

Been around deleted trucks for a while and have had far fewer horror stories with them than I have with stock trucks.

I seen a post about buying carbon credits and how 80 gallons of diesel generates around 13$ worth of carbon credits at market rate. At that rate i had rather buy fuel at an additional .16$ per gallon and the feds go worry about something else and drive my deleted diesel that gets better mileage and less expense without the garbage on the truck.

To answer the question i travel all over the place between a few different vehicles and all of them are "modified" never had any issues.
