It was a close one today boys!

I was lined up at the stop light next to a new (I HATE TO SAY THIS WORD &gt;) Duramax. He was pulling about a 34' travle trailer. The light turned green and I wanted to get infront of him before the lanes merged (i.e. old fart in a duramax w/trailer = SLOW ). Well much to my suprize he just about kicked my butt! I had that cummins rapped up, power shifting and all, and still it took me till 5th gear to pass him! <br>Thank god for 6th gear! <br><br>YOU ALL NEED TO TALK TO MY WIFE AND EXPLAIN HOW WE CAN CORRECT THIS PROBLEM!<br><br>She &quot;say's&quot;, guy's that have to hop up there toys have little &quot;pinkies&quot;! .....Anyone know a good lawyer?

I HOPE you were pulling something too?? Please say an empty Dodge didn't get beat by a loaded Duramax.

Re:It was a close one today boys!

Did you have the emergency brake on, or possibly have a ricer stuck under your truck? ???

Re:It was a close one today boys!

Yep, the Dmax runs real good...until the injectors foul themselves. I think someone had a ricer stuck under the driveline!
