when your at the computer and your wife walks up and says " Let me guess, the diesel truck Resource" "How many other people can be on a diesel website" And you turn to her look her right in the eyes and ramble off 20 to 35 screen names off the top of your head with a silly little grin on your face.


just happened to me 5 minutes ago..

You put the cat in the garage and put the new turbo in bed.

You guess what diesel is in the truck coming around a corner before you see it.

People look at you strange when you run down the driveway waving at the UPS truck.

Folks leave the campground cuz your talking to all the diesel owners about BOMBing and those folks don't know what BOMBing means.

Yep, wife just walked by and asked why I was laughing - looked over my shoulder and rolled her eyes. But she attended Claremont with me last year, and has been to every DTR meet I have been to.

You might be a dieselhead if you start talking about getting a new vehicle and your wife says that she wants to trade in her Jaguar on a new CTD.

..if you don't even have to see the truck to tell if it is a 12 or 24 valve CTD, a 7.2 or 6.0 Powerstroke, or a Duramax.

if your AOL and SameTime instant message alerts are wav files of a 24 valve and 12 valve starting up, and you can tell the difference from the other side of the lab (the guys I work with will occasionally repeatedly IM me when I am on the phone because I keep the volume turned up so I can hear it with machines running - but they can now tell the difference in the motors )

Dude,
Where can I get some diesel related jewelry?
Do they make charm bracelets with little turbo, injector, fueling box or fuel plate charms you can put on there? I do believe I'd wear THAT!

Those are good ones.

I've been laughing for the past 5 minutes reading this. Nearly all of them apply to me.

Dave (wannadiesel) has it right on though. I roll both windows down, slide open the rear, and keep the radio off.

The radio is on & windows are up when its raining or cold, and even then sometimes i have the slider "cracked" a bit.

Thought of another one.

You like to take people for rides in your truck so you can show them how MUCH your truck smokes.

When someone says they have "twins" and your first thought is of turbos and how they are setup.
