I hate diesels
Anyone here have problems with every damn Dodge or Ford truck tries to race them or about runs you off the road trying to race someone else? I cant just cruise for fun without having black smoke in my window or having a a bunch of redneck wannabes hanging out the window screaming crap at me.

yeah, big lifted trucks **** me off because they think they're the kings of the road... till you lose them in the twisties. diesels however are incredibly cool, and a dream project car of mine is a VW TDI Golf.
i know how you feel though... i live in hicksville, too, and a little riceburner isn't always accepted in the midst of diesel trucks.

i had some guy in a lifted truck yell at me today for the first time...literally about 1-1.5 hours ago. its never happened to me, and i couldnt really even tell what he was saying (i heard "go home" once), so i didnt really say anything as he drove by

i get it all the time here in utah. i dont know about elsewhere in the country, but here it is the cool thing to buy a big expensive diesel whether you need it or not (some do for work). everyone and their damn dog has to have a diesel and yes, it's annoying. dont sweat the guys that suffer from small-ball syndrome and have to have a big truck to fit their pants right. i laugh at them cuz i pay 1/4 what they do to license and fuel my car.

I have noticed an increase in rednecks with FAST diesels in my area also. It's an infection! I must admit though, a modded diesel with stacks and a lift cracking 1.5 60fts is pretty f#@king impressive!

yeah it's the same way here **rolls eyes @ speeders**, sucks *****. People just don't care these days about safety or the written law. The town I grew up in, 1mph over would get you ticketed. Always makes me wonder what the state troopers are actually doing all day LOL
