My '06 is stock except for an AFE Stage II filter, Banks Technicooler with Ram Air Intake, Banks Flow-Through Exhaust, catalytic converter removed. I get lots of black soot accumulating on the rear fender and bumper. If "stock trucks will not smoke", are these minor modification causing this? I thought black smoke was caused by unburned fuel, due to more fuel going through the engine than it can burn. I'm confused. JH

I know for sure 06 and 07 trucks smoke a little bone stock, but not the rollin-coal smoke that he probably is wanting, and its just a slight haze from the stockers. Ya gotta mod for thick black smoke (unburned fuel)

The black smoke is "improperly" burned fuel.
