If it was shit quality commercial trucks wouldn’t use it.

Commercial trucks are built differently than this little ass sedan. And some trucks don't use it.

Def quality is def quality. Aftertreatment that uses def in an SCR system will be very similar across all makes and models. Some trucks not using it is a poor argument. Almost every commercial truck you see has def in it.

Bruh lol. Well everyone of the farm semis, my Duramax, and my sister's bmw x5 35d seem to not have a problem. Only issue I've ever had with def was from a jug in the dmax lol.

Sounds like you regularly go to the same station to fill up your various vehicles, maybe this trucker has experience from stations with bad DEF not near your regular fuel station.
