DEF is DEF. There are no differences as long as it's 32.5-33% UREA

UREA = UREA.. Platinum DEF has some great marketing. Change your oil and fuel filters on time and try your best not to run the truck on the red for fuel level, top up around quarter tank is best practice. Learn to do some maintenance yourself and you will get to know your truck a lot better and you will realize these things are not as difficult to work on as one may expect.
Oh and don't forget, as a Ram HD driver, tailgate people in the slow lane that are going well above the speed limit.

I've run several kinds of DEF including the cheapest Walmart DEF for 2 years with zero issues.
Just make sure if you buy it in jugs, it's sealed. We've seen one report of a DEF system failure that was traced back to a returned jug of Walmart DEF that was just tap water. I guess luckily the owner held onto the empty jug after filling.

I have always filled my DEF at the pump, never had an issue other than the pumps won’t dispense in real cold temps, I was told they shut off automatically somewhere in the mid 20s temperature
