All my co-workers avoid the right side of my truck when walking to their cars at the end of the day. 1st gens let out a nice puff when you start them. Timed right, it can be very entertaining.

LOL, my truck has stacks, so in the summer when Mrs. Soccer mom cuts me off in her mercedes convertable, i get in front of her, take my foot off the gas, watch th boost go to zero, and pound the pedal. 35 feet high, and really long. hehe, just a word of caution, dont cut me off if you dont like raw #2! hehe ...

I was on my way to work the other mourning and was in the right lane doing about 60mph. I came up on a mini van in the right lane and BMW-Z3 conv in the left lane. When I pulled into the left lane behind the BMW he desided to slow down to 56mph next to the van doing 55mph, needless to say it took about 2 miles to get around the van but the little PUNK in the BMW wouldn't pull into the right lane so I did. When I went to pass him he stomped it and so did I, thats when the FUN began. He must have never thought that a big truck like mine could kick his pretty little BMWs butt, but it did At this point he started to tailgate me and that was his 2nd mistake and you all know what happened then, CRIS turned his little light blue BMW BLACK. You know the color, I think its called #2 BLACK but I'm not sure. please let me know if I'm wrong about the name of that color black.

CRIS

Dieseldude4x4,

Your truck throws some smoke. I black a 4 lane highway out for 700 feet
Made an estimation on how long the cloud is... Maybe i need more fuel ,
