More environmental bull crap. Modern cars have over a HUNDRED sensors, valves and other hardware only for emission control.

In the case of DEF, if you run out, your vehicle goes into limp mode and won't go over 30 mph until you fill up with DEF. Granted you get hundreds of miles of warning you're running out, but it's crazy running out of an emission control solution will disable your vehicle.

This Obama $hit pisses me off every time I fill up my Cummings. I now keep two extra jugs on hand (in a closet in the utility room with winter upon us).

Yep, I drive a truck and that’s happened to me before. It ticks me off to no end because it’s completely unnecessary, the only reason we have to put this sh*t in the truck is so people like AlHole Gore can make money and if you run low on the crap it’s very hard to find a gas station or store that sells it.

Or what has happened to me twice already the DEF pump fails and of course the truck shuts down and a tow truck has to be called because God forbid I should drive a truck with no DEF a few miles to a garage. This is all about money, just like the vaccine, just like Obamacare, mandating people buy something is extremely profitable.

Vehicles do not start without def. There is no limp mode in my truck.

If not for the limp mode, no one would refill their DEF. We can ‘thank’ the EPA for this ‘feature’.
