It's a fuel vapor recovery tank. It lives in that cover on the front right of the bed and it goes to the gas tank and 1 hose goes to that valve on the passenger side firewall that t's off to the oil pan and air cleaner onh a gas engine, not sure where it ends up on a diesel. It's a emission thing, yes even diesels have emissions.

I believe your answer, but I don't believe that part was on any of the diesels (except possibly the CA version). I think more likely, the truck was originally a gasser, later retrofitted with a diesel. That's why the owner found it disconnected.

I have never seen a LUV diesel with the vapor canister but several trucks I work on have them that are diesels.
