They should know that the V10 X has a GVW higher than 8500 lbs., and therefor requires a 2 speed idle test and will NEVER show that all the perameters will NEVER be ready. The weird thing is, an X with the 5.4 V8 will show ready and will get the standard emissions test.
CA models Ex's have been obd2 compliant. I have one but am in AZ. It has an egr valve, and an o2 sensor after the cat.
They don't use it in AZ, they do a sniffer test.

I learned something, so disregard my first erroneous post. It must all be programmed into the computer at our local emission testing facility, they just plug it in and it runs whatever tests it should and done. I ASSumed the 49 state EX was like most cars which do need to run the cycle of tests.
