I turned over 437k on mine before I parked it mid-April. So far the emission related problems I’ve had are one nox sensor and harness, DPF was cleaned at 240k, DEF tank filter at 300k (per service manual) and the truck will be going in June 1 when I’m done with vacation for DPF cleaning. It’s just like everything else, take care of it and there’s less likely to be any issues. Did the filter need cleaned at 240k? Probably not. Does it need cleaned now? Probably not. Am I saving future headaches doing it before it needs it? Probably.

Actually I learned this week that the Freightliner dealers (excel) here in NC/SC/VA will work on them...... My truck doesn't have emissions but someone I know has had theirs worked on them there.

1) The fewer number of parts to maintain, the less chance of repair. Its just numbers.

I was going to order a truck this year but since I’ll have 6 months of being home every night once I come back in June I can wait until sometime in 2021. I’ll still be out of this one at 500k, the emissions will still be intact so I can trade if I don’t want to sell outright, and it will be far away from me once the problems start. Unless I decide to keep it and just buy another truck, then once the problems start I’ll address them then. -
Shawn2130 Thanks this.

Most guys around here either run 07 or older or brand new for 3 years and don’t do anything at all to them. Then trade for another new one....
They don’t even get extended warranty because they know their gonna dump them .....
