That's what happens when you go to an auto parts store in "Baypoint"You shouda told him "it's gotta v-16 Honda with 4 turbos....maaaan.

 

Had the high idle going,

Chevy driver asked why it idled to high

told him why

he looked at me stupid and said"thats a dodge for ya"

 

I just picked up a couple of Neapco U-joints at Advance Auto. I could tell the pimply faced kid waiting on me didn't know his rear for a hot rock. I gave him the part #s and went in the back of the store to dump some oil. When I came back up front he said "What do these huge U-joints go in?" I pointed out the window and he couldn't believe a u-joint that big could go in a pickup. I said "It only has a 6 banger in it too". When I left he was out front of the store with a cigarette in his hand and his mouth was hanging open when I lit em up a bit in the parking lot.

 

Was at a used car dealer with a buddy looking at an early 2nd gen. Was driving my former ride, 89w350. My truck was putting a respectable 300/600 to the ground at the time. This POS 95 we were looking at wouldn't even start. I pop my hood to hook the jumper cables up and the guy says 'hey, I seen a engine like that in a tractor once....now, if you want to see a REAL diesel engine, take a look under the hood of this '95...' I was speechless

 

"Hey! Better get that thing looked at! Sounds like you gotta rod knockin!"

I've gotten the "Deer in the Headlights" stare many times after telling someone that it's a 6 cylinder too....

It's always funny when a gasser guy is pumping gas next to you and he says "I bet you hate filling that thing up with the cost of fuel these days!" When I tell them I'm getting 15-16 mpg in town and I'm in the low 20s on the highway they look at you like you are lying. It's too funny thinking about how later on he will be BSing with his friends telling them about the tall tale I told him and how they will laugh thinking about how dumb I am...LOL

 

I had a guy pull up along side me in a right turn only lane to go straight. Light turned green and I mashed it without spooling up and left him sitting there, he rolled up along side me at the next light and said, "I did not think that thing had it in it". I replied, "yeah, silly six cylinders". Kids.

 

I think I have heard just about every gig against a compact truck there is. Usually from people driving full sized trucks that have never had anything in the bed of the truck.

 

I had a motorcycle on a 5X10 trailer hooked to my Ram 2500 and the guy I bought the bike from asled me if I could get up the hill with that trailer. Total weight of the trailer and bike was at most 1300 pounds. It took me a minutue to realize he was serious. I told him I'd use low range if I needed to. That's when he said he wondered why the front tires were so knobby. I'm not exactly sure he was sober.

 

I like the tree luggers faces when I tell them I get about 24 MPG on the highway and produce less emissions than their toy cars. After they have just chewed me out for driving a diesel that is.

 

What kind of spray paint is that?

He was talking about the SOOT on the stacks....


While pulling out some shrubs and small trees around the house the new neighbor came over and offered for me to borrow his V-10 6.8L powered ford, since it had a bigger motor. He was actually serious...

 

oh boy here we go on this one

when i had my 12v...

You need to check your spark plugs.. you are running rich.. (former coworker)
Is that thing a 4x4? are you sure? (gas station funny)
only a six? get yourself a real motor (guy with a 2500 HD with a 6.0)
Dodge, Drip Oil Drops Grease Everywhere (kinda funny and true)
What is that whistly thingy sound (former gf)
Why is your exhaust pipe so big and black? (No comment)
Are you compensating for something? (another old flame)
That cummins couldnt pull a hat off your head, my truck has twin turbos (brand new 08 6.4)
Why does your truck have two transmissions? ( 5 spd 4x4, and a genius in my truck)
Is it diesel? (filling up at a station)

05 CR

Hey, that thing have a hemi?
Hey dude, is that your bosses truck? (UGH!!! dumb broad)
Autozone employee, I can get you the spark plugs for your truck, they are special order

 

Filling up at a flying j with a trailer hooked up and the guy behind me in a ford gasser said if I wanted to tow I should have bought a Hemi. I laughed and said "yeah right", and then realized he was serious so I just turned back around.

Some tree hugger pulled up next to me at a stop light and told me I need a tune up cuz my truck had smoke from the tail pipe every time I take off.

 

Its not really that funny, but most PSD or DMax guys always see the gauges in my 97 and ask if I "chipped it". Silly V8, chips are for dippin.. Yep, Cummins made diesels before computers..

 

In a bank parking lot waiting on a buddy and this lady is backing out of a parking spot then just stops and stairs at my stacks. She rolls down her window and hollers at me. What are those shinny things in the bed of your truck for. So i showed her. After the plum cleared. She said that is the coolest thing ever. Love city folks. (no offence to any on here)

 

I once got out of a speeding ticket with my truck.

"Officer, there's no way I was going that fast in this truck. It's a six cylinder diesel."
