I picked up a new client back in July so I brought my truck to them today and they found the leak above my tank that no one else could. Apparently I have a squirrel problem home or office. I think that’ll leak. 
They found my EVAP Leak

Evap leaks can sometimes be tricky to track down. It looks a smoke test found that one pretty easy though. Lol. Damn rodents...

That was the third smoke test. LOL Not to mention the cheap cigars I burned trying to find it. As you can tell by the pic it’s not a brand new hole either.
I’ve driven around so long with the CIL on it scares me to look down there and not see that yellow light down there.

My EGR isn’t making the CIL light come on anymore but it still shows in the “Pending” in my scan tool. Now that this is fixed I’m hoping a new EGR valve and a good tube cleaning will rectify that as well.
Then to be honest I can’t really see letting go of cash for a newer vehicle in the short term. My trans checks out good. I thought it was leaking but turns out it’s a tiny front diff spray. I can fix that myself.
Have that annoying chirp in the rear passenger tire area but everything back there crucial is new so I’m hoping that doesn’t turn catastrophic.
My tach also miraculously started working again. LOL

I own a CPA firm and I recently picked up a client that owns an auto repair shop.

That was the third time at least a smoke machine had been used. The first time was a Dodge dealership. Once was a very reputable shop, according to what I was told.
