OK guys......I'm not a total boob when it comes to gas emissions but, what the hell is DPF & VGT?

VGT is the variable geometry turbo
DPF is the diesel particulate filter
The DPF is in the exhaust and collects the soot, so you don't leave clouds of black smoke. Between the DPF and the catalytic converter, your OE exhaust system costs between $5-7k to replace, should you ever have to replace it out of pocket.

Check for the plug stuck up behind the bumper of the pickup. If you have towhooks, it might be right beside the passenger tow hook. When you turn the key on your pickup, an orange coil lights up and goes out when its ready to start. If its cold you can shut the key back off after it cycles and turn the key back on--this cycles the manifold heater which will help start in colder weather. You shouldn't even need to think about plugging it in until 28-30.
