well i usually dont smoke excessively...but some times i just feel like rolling that coal. i guess its ok occasionally. i usually dont do it unless i am playing with another diesel or a ricer. when i first got my smarty i would smoke all the time but that phase passed. some people hate it though if some body is riding my **** ill smoke em and they will get in the other lane or quit it but there is some that will get right on my bumper even when i smoke em. i could brake check em but i like my truck too much to do that. they also generally flip me off.

Just because you don't agree with the way they think gives you no right to call them idiots. That is a very childish statement.

The funny thing about ''Tree-huggers'', is that most of them are vegitarians.
Therefore they are killing and eating the one thing that turns our ''smog'' into clean O2.

With a new White House and a filibuster proof house, STFB! That, in military terms is stand-the-frick-by. I think I spelled the third word incorrectly, though. Don't worry, though, there will be enough pain for EVERYONE....

And this is why people need to keep smoking to a minimum. I know its hard and Im certainly guilty of clouding a passing lane up with smoke but some people just flat out do it to every single chance they get and its coming back to bite all diesel drivers in the rear end with wacky laws and regulations and fines.
Remember...every time you pelt a Prius driver with smoke, they write their congressman and donate to some nutty enviroment lobby organizations...

I only use my smoke when Im getting tailgated, its pretty easy to control with the skinny pedal.
I dont think its us so much that cause the crazy laws so much as this trend of overzealous environmentalism. I mean weve had below avg temps this year and theysyre still whining about global warming. It is a power grab of a different sort. Just watch.

Hey guys,
Just putting in my input on this subject,
I also only roll it when there is a car on my a$$ or anything like that, be it friend or foe cuz it is just fun.
But my story about rolling coal goes like this,
One of my close friends has a 7.3 IDI with the pump tweeked. Being a non turbo motor it starves for air on the top end. So when he revs it high, it pours right out. But one after noon he was driving threw his high school road which has a speed limit of 30 mph. It connects the parking lot to the main street infront of the school. Well he had a BMW on his rear end, grabed 2 and reved her. Pouring smoke out the car backed off. It was good laughts at the time until this happened. One week later he gets called down to the office had a ticket from the town for close to 500 dollers for some EPA pollution BS. Also they had another 3 tickets about how loud the truck was an how it was lifted being to high. And this truck wasent high at all. It had a 3in lift with 33 MT All Terrain tired on it. They also suspended him indefintly for the rest of the year and gave him the option of taking the classes he needed to just pass the following summer.
In the grand scheem of things it went from a little black to almost $6000.00 worth of lawers and everything else.
But of corse we still roll it but just not at highschool were both in college and its a whole different deal when the teaches see a nice gen2 rolling it out, jaws drop

i had a lady in a subaru follow me a good 3 miles to a friends house, when i parked and went to walk up to the house she pulled up and waved me over, i went over and she proceded to tell me that my truck has something wrong with it because it smokes badly and i need to get it fixed so i dont harm the environment. She wasnt very nice about it either. I told her that i paid a lot of money for it to do that and that her subaru is probly puts out more harmful emissions than my truck does. i was just amazed that she followed me that long.

If I lived in UT were this happened I would give those inspectors something to do & turn in every Diesel truck I saw ones that don't smoke & let them waste their time.You know they are gov workers & they get paid when they are eating donuts & coffee or looking for smokers so I surely would rather keep em busy & they WILL change things after while.

Start calling in any Prius you see, say they are smoking like a stack and are to loud. 
it wont be true but it will be to late when the confusion is solved.

If they start emission testing here, i'll just make a removable section of exhaust with 6 cats on it and turn everything down. That should let me pass and when i get home i can put it back to normal.lol I only roal the coal when some ones on my a$$ anyway, and sometimes the occasional smart car.lol
