No need to take it as an insult, just kidding around. But there are two inspections I get in MO. Safety and emissions. At this point emissions is usually a check engine like and equipment existence check, used to have to hook up to a smog meter but diesels were exempt from that anyway. So...
I knew a smart aleck would comment on that line lol. They have passed it every time they call and confer with MOHP Troop C though. I think what passes it is that it was not built with the cold air tubing, same as the license plate lights, so in MO it passes without them. I will eventually add...

Those are the 'diesel ricers' as my IDI group was referring to them. Been a bad rash of rolling coal videos uploaded, and the group generally lets each of those guys have a piece of their mind about how bad they make the diesel community look by running like that in public. In hunting class...
