No, but gsbrockman or ltngdriver on cumminsforum are slapping miles on their rigs pretty darn fast with full emissions. Don't know if they peruse these boards, but they both hot-shot trailers. Neither are reporting any issues with the emissions on the trucks. One has the Aisin dually setup, while the other has the 68RFE 2500 setup. Both are well north of 100k miles, I think one of them may be past 200k or close to it by now.
Thanks, jus2shy.
My signature truck has been the best rig I've owned to date. I'm now at 153,994 miles. My average MPH is 53.3 MPH, I have a lifetime average MPG of 13.6 MPG per fuelly

I've had one L/R door lock actuator replaced under warranty, a water pump reimbursement under warranty, and a noisey carrier bearing replaced under warranty. Through 149,804 miles, I've been through 228.501 gallons of DEF for a total cost of $685.69
Since I have a lowly Tradesman trim truck, I can rotate my tires easily due to the steel wheels & simulators. I received 79k miles out of my OEM LT235/80R17 General Ameri*Trac TR's, around 62k miles out of some General Grabber HTS's, and I'm currently about 12k miles into a set of LT245/75R17 Firestone Transforce H/T's. I do all of my own rotations and service work. Not sure if my rig is an exception, but ALL of my front end parts were still nice & tight through my last rotation at 151k miles. :B
There is one guy (driver612) that is over 200k miles and still bone stock.
EGR, DPF, SCR, and DEF acronyms don't scare me......unlike others on various forums that think

if you don't delete.... :B
Forgot to mention....my lifetime OCI's average out to 13,573 miles and 254 hours.
