A Diesel Jeep Liberty For Us Market?!

Smoked By A Yugo

The sad thing is most of the school buses smoke as much as my truck does,no one says a thing about those things. Talk about gross poluters,those DT466's,and 444Te's smoke no matter what it seems,I can control my smoke,and do,except when tailgaters refuse to back off from me,even after a few brake light taps. I do not drive smoking al the time,and use my foot to control smoke for 99% of my driving. My only regret is my truck doesnt have supermentals in it to smoke even more when im being tailgated.
 
BP

Yep a little application o BP.

Haven't put my Mad Max bumpers on yet,, but I feel no truck is well dressed without them.

Appears to me you wuz following too close, am glad my (insert fav steel bumper brand here) was there to stop you!;)

FYI--My 100th post! Each post less intellligent than the previous!
 
The big fat particles from a sudden burst on the throttle fall to the ground. They are visible, and obnoxious. But they aren't serious pollution.



of course, the EPA doesn't see it like that.
 
The tail gaters don't bother me so much as the bung holes who make the kamikaze lane changes to pass me on the right and then swoop into the space in front of me. Makes me think of the "dive and swoop" insurance ploy. No mercy in the smoke department for this type. They only try it once. :cool:
 
I want to get a good bumper and then put a sticker the shape of a stop sign on each side under the tail lights that says,



"STOP! That's about as far as your going to get, anyway. "
 
smoke story

:rolleyes: Ever notice how no matter what it is, whenever there's a group of people having fun someone has to try to put an end to it? Well, before the fun police can show up and try to bring this thread down I'll tell you a smoke story... .



Actually, I told this awhile back but it's good and is worth repeating, besides I've been on good behavior lately and don't have a new one :rolleyes: Anyway, wife and I were pulling the 33' travel trailer back from May Madness last year and stopped at a Burger King for Lunch. Whole parking lot is empty on one end so we kind of jack knife it into a a corner of the lot so as to be out of everyone's way and leave it running with the ac on for the dogs. We go in and eat and when we come back out, that whole side of the parking lot is still empty except for one car, you guessed it, parked right in front of my truck, blocking me in. These two girls are sitting it it with the doors open and windows down. I have no idea what they were doing, maybe they decided to eat in their car for some reason. Anyway, I figure they'll get tired of listening to that good ol' 12v idle pretty quick so we get the dogs out and walk them around a bit. Come back, still there. Hmmmmm. We load up, take our time finally I start backing up. I have to back up a pretty good ways to get the trailer straight enough so I can go on around the building. So I idle very slowly until the pipe is even with their car, still sitting with the windows down and doors open and I make a complete stop. You know what's next..... Oo. SMOKE SHOW SMOKE SHOW Oo. I mean, the whole car disappeared in a smoke cloud! My wife was about to fall in the floor board laughing. Oh well, guess next time they'll park at the other end :-laf

While cruisin down a major road here in Phoenix ( Bell Rd ), I notice that the center lane is backed way up for around a half mile and everyone is doing everything in their power to get out of that lane. Well I ease on over the the left lane and finally come up to the source of the problem. Some kid wearing one of those all goth ( black ) outfits complete with black trenchcoat is riding a pink Vespa ( Scooter ) in the middle lane doin' about 18mph in a 45. As I look closer the kid has stars painted on his face kinda like the drummer in KISS.

Now at the time my boss was riding with me but I couldn't help myself. At 20 mph I put it in 5th and slammed the go-peddle. With my 370 injectors and plate full forward that kid vanished along with everything else. I think I gothed his face to match his outfit. You should have heard all the cars honking their approval. I never laughed so hard in my life. Neither did my boss. :-laf
 
wcaldwell,



A friends brother used to have a lifted Cheby, when they still had REAL front axles, and he installed a 10" I-beam rear bumper. On it he painted "Stop or you're F***ed". (Sorry it's not a smoke 'em story. )
 
Great storys!Todd G,I almost fell off my chair when i read yours,LOL. I sometimes wish i had a 5 speed,just so i could smoke out fools better.
 
You're all mean

Next time, be considerate of us ex-diesel owners who are just there for a "hit" of the good stuff. :p

Hey boonsur, instead of coffee in the morning, i just sit next to the right rear tire and breath deeply..... good for the soul



Ok at the risk of offending the fun police again, I will now post this disclaimer. Imature, non politically correct, and environmentally hostile content below. If you dont want to know, dont read any further :rolleyes:



Im getting off work the other day, and when i come to the freeway overpass, the light turns green, but i only advance a few car lengths before the light goes red again. So, im like what the heck. Then i see the problem. there is one of those guys with the "will work for food" signs on his neck sitting on the side of the onramp. Well some bleeding heart had stopped to give him some money or whatever, but now i missed my light, and im agitated (type A pesonality to be sure) . Flame me boys, i dont care. So i says to my self "self, you could just be nice", but then the other little voice says go for it wimp. So, light goes green again, Powermax gets put on melt down, when i get to the point were i start to make the turn, i put it in 4th gear and floored it. Completely lost sight of him and the cars behind me. The funniest part is when i look in the rear view a few seconds later, i see him rolling down the embankment. seems he tried to duck and ended up going down the hill. I almost had to pull over to keep from crashing i was cracking up. take that politically correct ones.

Yeah, i know someday im gonna get mine, but oh well. I got to share the love with a coworker today, he thought it was kind of cool, although his white lab coat is kind of grey now :D I'll get him driving a cummins yet baby. Big saint, i need some bd5's man. Oh yeah, i dont know about you guys but i try to share the love with family and friends even more than strangers. Got the wifey the other day good, she had the windows down on the old acura hehehe. I was kinda in hot water for a little while on that one, but it was worth it. Funny how all my CTD buddies just take a deep breath. Dont they know all those diesel fumes are gonna ruin their brains;)
 
rubberneck, ROTFLMAO... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... . Oo. you just about made me wet myslef... ... ... ... ..... "as I see the guy rolling down the hill":D
 
LMAO. This is one of the few times I think I'd like a 24 valve.



I gotta get a cam plate in this thing.....



Rubberneck I'm begining to think that if youre vehicle was kept off the road for a few weeks, the smog problem will miraculously (sp?) signifigantly improve in Ca. :-laf :-laf :-laf

Nothing

This has nothing to do with smoke outs, but it does have trucks in mind.



During my 15 year stint as a over the road trucker I had the honor of running a weekend Toluene load from Colo. to Montana in mid-winter. Well just like usual I ran into a blizard in Wyoming and didn't run out of it until on my way back at the Colo line. As everyone knows rigs have a habit of building up a lot of ice and snow on the running gear under the tractor and trailer. Near Colo Sprs the temps were un seasonally high with downslope winds at 70' . I started to defrost a hunk at a time.



Here was this hippie standing on the side of the road, with a duffle bag and his thumb out. I glanced in the mirrors and saw a chunk of ice about the size of a Volkswagon come off my landing gear! At that time noticing the trajectory of the ice, I knew it was going to be close. By this time I had passed the Hippie, so I countinued to look in the mirrors as the ominus piece of ice continued its death roll toward the hippie at 60 mph plus! Finally the Hippie saw it and took to scrambling up the side of the hill by the Interstate. He forgot his duffle and the chunk of ice took it out... ... ... . His duffle exploded into a many different colored mushroom.



I was by then down the road too far to see the Hippies reaction to the loss. But, I can almost promise he has either a hate or a greater respect for passing trucks... ... . I really didn't think it was funny, but it was educational.....

Trust me Phil, if you get the 5's you will not have to activate a remote for heavy smoke, a heavy foot and low boost is all that is required ;) .
