The essential element for marketing bull**** is "Never, ever, underestimate the stupidity of the American consumer".
Wait! It was on the Internet... It just has to be true!!!

My favorite Mr. Haney sales pitch to Mr. Douglas was toward the end of a transaction Mr. Douglas had made a final offer to Mr. Haney of $10.00. Mr. Haney countered back that he'd only sell the last two he had as a pair for $11.00 each and that's $25.00. Mr. Douglas said, no that's $22.00. Mr. Haney said, you drive a hard bargain Mr Douglas, sold for $22.00.
 
Well had my 1st DEF issue. It was hot and stopped at a rest area to eat lunch. Upon starting engine recieved 2 alarms about high DEF temperature. Showed 111F via Silverleaf, connected my DEF emulator and went about my business.
When you are driving in 100F temperatures and the DEF tank is close to exhaust and DPF it is going to get hot.
I will bring my infrared heat gun on next trip and see if inlet valve to DEF head unit is stuck open.
Talking to my friend who owns a trucking company, he recommended adding a valve on 1/2” hose to supply engine coolant and living in the South only open it from December-February.
Now I am wondering if High DEF temperature was from high ambient temperatures or from supply coolant line stuck open?
