Could always sell the truck and buy one that's compliant with all emissions stuff. Then you avoid several problems entirely.

Diesels are exempt. I'd leave it alone if it were me.
10. Exhaust System
11. Exhaust Emission System (beginning with 1968 models)
12. Beam Indicator (beginning with 1948 models)

where did you see emissions are exempt for diesels? i am in texas as well

if the guy bought the truck from a dealer, they cant legally resale if emissions systems are removed. they should not have even purchased it from a seller

I appreciate everyone's response to my question. I sold the truck back to the dealer today and turned around and ordered a 2022 F350. Thanks for all the help.

Not sure if you found it, but i copied and pasted the section below from the link.Which vehicles are required to have the emissions test?
  • Vehicles registered in designated counties. Designated counties include: Brazoria, Collin, Dallas, Denton, El Paso, Ellis, Fort Bend, Galveston, Harris, Johnson, Kaufman, Montgomery, Parker, Rockwall, Tarrant, Travis, and Williamson.
  • Gasoline powered vehicles. Diesel powered vehicles and motorcycles are exempt from emissions testing, but are still required to have the annual safety inspection.
  • Vehicles 2 through 24 years old OR upon expiration of the two-year initial inspection sticker.

Yeah I did see it. However they are required to have the emissions equipment in place. They will look visually for it but most of the time here when you pull up and it sound like it does they don't even start the inspection. Replacing it was just easier for me.
