P20BE Error - Reductant Pump/Sensor Replaced

I am passing this along for visibility/consideration. I just had the reductant pump/sensor replaced at 115k. I've owned the truck (2016) since new, this is the third emissions system related issue. The reductant pump/sensor were previously replaced (under warranty) around 7K and a NOX sensor around 80K (out of warranty).

I still like the truck, it's got character and I don't regret my purchase.

In my experience however, Diesel has a negligible (if any) total cost benefit to Gas in this platform. I bought the truck with no intent to ever resell/trade, so the initial purchase premium plus emissions repairs negate any fuel cost savings (especially with what's happened to fuel prices this past year).
I'm not sure I would ever recommend someone purchase a diesel for cost savings. I generally only recommend people purchase a diesel when they need the torque, which is now kind of OBE by the 2.7L putting out more torque than the diesel and more HP than the V6
