Why would the emissions give problems? are there lots of issues with these systems? I was under the understanding that excess idling and pulling to much weight was the leading causes of emissions failures, at least that is what Ford told me when my DPF failed on my truck, they said i must have been idling to much since my RV was well within the towable capacity.

This kinda makes sense, i know most of the trucks i saw and talked to the owners, they mentioned getting tuning done to increase MPG.... maybe they tuned out some of the emissions stuff since the trucks are not inspected like yalls?
