you "accidentally" hit your remote start button when there are a group of people around just to see the look on their face when it starts...

 

[Wheaties]

... you turn your rent-a-car' s igniton to 'on' for 30 seconds before you turn it to 'start'

My wife is constantly telling me I don't have to wait to start her Honda.

 

[WadePatton]

... you rename your dog "Dogzilla"

 

[Got HO?]

You're a dieselhead

When you're hauling 7000 lb worth of trailer, ATV's, generators & water & blow past your hunting bud in his Toyota pulling 1 little 4-wheeler & you're running UPHILL in overdrive:-laf



Not to mention he has his window rolled down. Oo.

Your a diesel head when you just got your new exhaust on and your driving around with the rear window open listening to the exhaust note when its - 10 degrees out :--)

I'll add to that with saying your a diesel head when you ride through town with the window down at about 20* listening to your stacks... ... . when you've had them for 4 months..... and its you second time having stacks on the same truck! :-laf

Just about had to kick myself this weekend...



Girlfriend asked me to change the oil in her Subaru Impreza wagon. Done it several times before, no biggie. She had also said she thought her battery had built up a lot of corrosion and asked me if I could clean it. Sure, easy thing to do.



Step 1: open car hood.



Step 2: Identify location of corrosion on battery.



wait for it ...

.



Step 3: Ask her in amazement "Where's your other battery??????" :{ :-{}



Step 4: pound head sevral times into brick wall. Repeat as needed.



God, I need help...

hehehehe... . had a buddy today w/ an '02 Dodge gasser tell me he "bought the drivers side battery holder for his extra stereo battery. " I thought, "why does he need 3 batts? Did he put that big of a system in it?" LOL... ah, being spoiled is nice. Twice the power, twice the accessories.

 

[Wheaties]

Honestly, it's worse when your preoccupied enough to forget you have two batteries and disconnect only one. I remembered about the time I jammed the positive lead against the alternator housing. Yikes!!!

You know your a diesel head (with 5. 9 cummins) when you are a student in a DIESEL TECH. PROGRAM and your instructor comes walking around the corner with a the towns local dodge service mangager. They both come to you have and have a barage of questions about the 5. 9 24v they have at the dealership shop. And you end up just going to the dealership to work on the truck for them. FOR FREE (as far as the school knows. . LOL)

... you get a Holiday card in the mail that was printed by "Soot University Press". :-laf

Truck or Girl ?

I know I've been confirmed due to the fact that I'm divorced after 22 years. Now I "date" other women but, I take certain "weekends" to be alone with my truck (Betty Boop) and do nothing but "tinker". I have had several calls from these women asking what I'm doing and why aren't "we" together... . they are less than pleased when I tell them I'm "tinkering" with Betty Boop and that perhaps I'll call them next week.



I know this is not the correct procedure to develop a meaningful relationship with a female but... . Betty Boop likes me bunches !!!!



AND SHE LOOKS GOOD ON ME !

[HoleshotHolset]

... . you have a VP-44 apart in pieces on your desk at work... and you're not a pump tech. :-laf

[RCMiller]

-you know you're raising your almost 2yr old niece right when every time she hears a diesel she says "Aunt Kara"



-when your friends are over and you say i'm going to quick check the TDR they start complaining b/c they know you won't get off for another 3 hours.

..... When you pass semis doing about 75 MPH on the uphill sections of I-40 eastbound between Jackson & Nashville, TN while pulling a 36' 5th wheel that puts you at 21,180 lbs GCW (21,500 lbs GCWR) and your wife tells you, "Slow down and wipe that **** eating grin off your face"... and you can't! Oo.

off topic

Yep, those are nice little rollers. (I-40 west of Nastyille. )



Try "the Rock" (Monteagle) on 24 between Nasty and Chattanooga. Bring the exhaust brake!
