    So you took off with the check engine light on... "Even though when I get in truck I still see the faults and check engine light on. So I drive it out because I'm due in Atl at 1600 that day." All your BS is now irrelevant.... You just got lucky to get it back to shop... Could've cost the company thousands in a tow bill IF it had broken down on Highway..... You just made as big of a mistake as any driver could make.... Driving a vehicle with known faults!!!!!! Shame on you

    What in the Sam Hill was this man thinking taking a truck with known mechanical issues and check engine codes visible out on the highway. #### lucky the truck didnt break down on the interstate and cause a 52 car pile up. Oh the irresponsibilty level here is unfathomable.

    Not trying to beat a dead horse..... But I have to ask this of the OP:

    Is the above quote the 1st time in this entire thread that you said that? IF SO- could you understand where some of the negative remarks are coming from?


    Im personally pulling for you, and hope you don't lose your job............................ but some of your earlier posts came off as you were blaming everyone else but yourself.

    I'll add that as a betting man: I'd bet my last $ that you have learned a valuable lesson that goes waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay beyond putting diesel in the def tank!

    Good Luck
