How many of you have spent minutes talking with a complete stranger at the gas station about how nice your truck is, how cool it looks and how powerful the engine is when all of a sudden he spews out a comment similar to "Yea, those new Hemi Cummins diesels are really sweet!"



:--)







"WOW, hey look at the time. I've got to hit the road. Have a nice life..... (you idiot)!"
 
... and this other time I just finished filling up my truck with DIESEL when I walked over to pay with credit card. While waiting for the charge slip to print, we BS'd about the truck for a minute when he asked, "That's got that new Hemi, right?".





Here's your sign!!!
 
None. Maybe its a NJ thing. :D j/k I have had people come up to me and ask if its a hemi and I say no its a diesel and they just look at me real funny, like whats that. :rolleyes:
 
"How do you like your new Hemi diesel?"



Got that from 3 diffrent people at work. What do you say? I could spend 10 inutes explaining but they still wouldn't get it. :rolleyes:

I have ya beat. A lady here at work was out smoking and looking at my truck. When I came out she asked why if I had the money for the accesories why didn't I pay the extra to get the Hemi powered truck.



Note that there are 3 Hemis in the lot right by my truck. I just chuckled and said they didn't pay me enough for that, I could only afford a 6 cylinder. She looked really funny at me and said "it only have a 6 cylinder???". I just said yep and jumped in.
 
Ha! I had a Dodge dealer salesman in Glen Burnie tell me about those new Hemi Diesels when I was in the midst of buying mine. Needless to say I didn't buy it from them.



Then again, a couple of weeks ago, they had "Cummings" painted on the windshield of a new 3500 DRW on the lot.
 
I got the same blank look when the guy at the store asked "Got a Hemi in that thing" I quickly realized talking about the superiority of a diesel was falling on deaf ears. I might as well have been talking to the shopping cart as it had about the same IQ.
 
Yeah for sure.... Here's Your Sign.

And pple wonder why this country is in the shape were in. Questions like that! Makes me wonder how many of those pple are running this country:eek:



Everyone have fun with your new Hemi powered Cummins, I missed out... :D
 
I NEED HELP

I just called the dealer and told them I need new plug wires for my Hemi Diesel. They can't find the part number. :eek:



Can somebody please help me!



:D



Maybe we should actually give this a try... . Might be worth a good chuckle...
 
Howdy,Ladys and Jents

Well the 2 moters do have one thing in comman. The 5. 9 Smoker moter,squirts fuel in the center of the piston,,,And on the hemmi the plug is in the center of the piston! One thing about it with a Hemmi ,towing at gas prices,can you say ouch!
 
I was talking trucks with a some dud e at a gas station that through he knew everything (claimed he had a diesel) so I asked him what kinda spark plugs he had. He said "oh you know the really high performance ones!!!"
 
Not exactly the same, but



Shortly after we got ours, we were in an RV park in Hendersonville, NC for a week, and a day before we left the guy across the way came over and commented that he really liked the truck, commenting that for towing the 35' er, we made a good decision. Everything from Dodge, to 4x4, dually, manual. . etc. but (having seen/heard me drive in and out of the park numerous times) said he couldn't understand why I hadn't gotten the Cummins Diesel. Something to be said for how quiet they have become. He understood the value of the engine, just didn't realize I did too !... Opened the hood and spent 1/2 hour more with him...

Hemi: 16 spark plugs

Cummins: 0 spark plugs



I often tell people, "nah, it's just a 6 cylinder. "



That's what I always tell 'em Klenger. It used to be people asked me about my '01 Ram if my Cummins diesel was the V10, and now on this truck it's "Is your Cummins the Hemi?"

Made it myself, using CorelDraw - it's an iron-on...



Gerry, our daughter and family live in Hendersonville - she works as a nurse at the hospital there - we were there for a month and a half last September/October - beautiful country...
 
I was at an Excel training class yesterday, and one of the excercizes had a worksheet for an auto parts store. The inventory consisted of 3 parts: brake shoes, carberator, and plug wires. I looked at the guy next to me and said "my truck doesn't have any of those parts in it. "



How about a T-shirt with a picture of a spark plug with a circle around it and a line thru it?
