Odor

Had my first regen the other day. Smelled a funny odor when I got out of the truck. I assume the odor was because of the regen.

Yes, the exhaust is pretty strange smelling. I rode a moped behind my '08 when I had it and the smell of the exhaust fumes was awful. I kinda feel bad for the motorcycle folks out there that get stuck behind us.

It smells like when you have a new grill and put some hot charcoal in it for the first time and the paint is cooking a little.

Mine smelled pretty much the same. Except add in the smell of burning pictures of my mother-in-law
