friend driving truck
 
had a friend drive my truck today. needless to say, it was a bad call. truck was in 6th gear and my buddy, not knowing any better, decided to be a little heavier with the gas pedal. the truck was "lugging" and then it made a "cough" like sound. similar to a backfire but it sounded like it was through the intake.

any comments as to what this was...truck remains to run properly. it would be a guess that this practice is NOT a good thing.

thanks

Probably... you said he was lugging it, he let off and barked the turbo...

I hear you, the only one that drives my truck is the owner and mechanic, ME!! A buddy's friend did put GAS in his Dodge, not good, but at least he put Premium in it!!!!

Only other person that has ever driven my truck is my son, but we worked together in it for a while.

we have no friends when it comes to driving our vehicles ............. an old saying around harley riders is " you can ride my bike when you let me ride your wife " , thats generally taken as " he** no you cant " .
that being said i do have 2 or three friends that could drive any of my vehicles but they feel the same about me , it is the people i know who are not TRUE friends that cant .
