People Hate Us Diesel Owners ......

What a bunch of smart alecks you guys think you are!! Keep up the great work !!! :-laf :-laf

I haul horses for a living (depending on how bad I need money ) and since I got my 99 with straight pipe... We dont tell them "we will call when we get close" we just tell them "you will hear us when we get close" Its always nice to see the grin when they walk out to you and say "I heard you atleast a half mile away"

I used to have fun with my ole ford 6. 9 diesel... get next to a convertable that cut you off or something and just lean on the soot pedal... watch em gag, or when someone would park so close you needed a can opener to get in... Just give er a little throttle and touch her off (white cars expecially nice) and look at the bullseye of soot backing out (I had no glowpugs working in my ford for a few months... that really left a mark, not to mention the nice white plume of smoke that would curl from behind the truck)

dont you just love it when:

you pull into the fuel station and the only pump in the station with diesel is blocked on both sides. when there is 7 other gas only pumps that are empty. especially when i realize that one of the cars sitting there belongs to the attendant. i would like to ask sometime (what is wrong with all those parking spots right next to the building). it drives me nuts when they see you waiting for the pump, and they leave their vehicle there. right in the way. cant be courteous and pull up. rant over. sorry a little off subject. i love it when people cant hear over my truck. mark

It always amazes me how it can take 10 minutes to fill a honda if it is parked at the only diesel pump... they always just look at you with that annoyed look as if to say "look at all those other pumps, use one of them, this one is mine I shall hold it as my very own" although I have had a few people also look at where they are... . then sheepishly get back in their car and move to one of the many open pumps, or pull forward so I can almost reach the central island diesel... I really try not to get mad, they are just uninformed, it is the guy who put the diesel pump between two gas pumps (of course the two most heavily used pumps) that I would really like to give a piece of my mind.

I use the truck stop whenever I can... they have better (fresher) fuel anyway, not to mention better prices... and I can leave her run without those confused looks from the poor guy driving the minivan, or the numb-nut in the rice-racer playing whatever that noise is...

My favorite move was at a local station, near my house. Center island pump. I know this place has a long hose. I pull up, and I'm patiently waiting. This Idiot pump the gas in his little POS Cavalier, then walks in. Doesn't move his car... just looks at me, rolls his eyes and walks away. Now I'm starting to run late, and short on patience. I get NICE and close to his car. Place the truck about 4inches from his drivers door, Slide across the seat, and procede to use the nice long hose to fill up. Of course I layed a dirty rag on his hood so I wouldn't scratch the paint with the hose as I pumped my fuel. He came out about $20 into a $50 fill and asked me what I was doing. I replied "Pumping Fuel. " He said "Your blocking me in" "Yep, I know, and Your blocking me out. You aren't the only one that needs fuel at this station. " His response "Well next time you'll just have to wait. " I smiled, and said "No next time I'll just use the winch on the front of the truck to relocate your car to a parking spot. " I finished pumping, Was as careful as possible putting the pump back... . then I moved my truck (he left, tried to peel out and couldn't) and paid. The attendant, the guy I see EVERY time I fill up said "Nice one, If I was driving your truck I would have just moved that Punk @$$'s little P. O. S. "



I have figured one thing out... . Make something idiot proof and the world will make a better idiot!

I gotta tell this one

Went out to eat the other night w/ the woman. The next day a buddy down the street that has a ford powerjoke said, "What time did you go eat last night?"... I said, "around 6". He said, "Well, I shouldn't tell you this, but around 9p I thought I heard you go'in up the street and decided to look... . it was a Peterbuilt going up the street instead. "!!!!!! It made me feel great :-laf ... ... Made me feel even better b/c he has a powerjoke that doesn't sound like the Cummins, or to him like a Peterbuilt Oo.

Was waiting for some buddies to get out of the locker room after our local wrestling event was over Saturday night. One of them came out, put his stuff in his car, and was walking back towards the building. I walked up and extended my hand (hadn't seen him in a while) and asked if he was going back to our friends house as usual. He replied "oh its you (it was dark)... . looking over my shoulder... "I thought that was a semi over there" referring to my truck with Geno's Idler holding it @ 1600RPM's.



I just said thanks for the compliment! :-laf Oo.

Ran into some family friends/elementary school teacher last night. I walked up behind her daughter and scared the living bejeases out of her! :-laf



She turns around and says "you need to stop going by @ 1AM in the morning and waking me up" referring to me driving past her house at about 60mph on a backroad on my way home at night. I just :-laf 'd at her

Bought my new house a little over a year ago, its on a culdesac and pretty nice neighbors. One even has a CTD. Anyway, I get up and leave for work around 0520 so I start my truck a few minutes before that. One guy never said anything to me until I straight piped it and then a couple days later he was nice enough to tell me that he "really" thinks that I need to replace my muffler cause it fell off or is rusted through, when I had my injectors and COMP in he also told me that he thinks something is wrong because it is just smoking way too much. I let him know I would get that checked out ASAP, just smiling.
