Everyone tends to think diesels are slow, smelly boat-anchors... but the truth is you can make some serious power with a diesel...

Hey man, is that exhaust dump behind the driver's door photo shopped in too, or is it actual?

yeah but the annoying thing is, guys are buying diesel up, sticking an exhaust on them and thinking they are the fastest things alive. im getting tired of this ****, especially since i live in hick country where all you see is corn fields. there is a guy across the street with a new ford diesel that he put an exhaust on. he had the nerve to drive up and down the street like its fast. he then stops in front of my house revving up until i come outside, then trys to take off while i sat there and laughed at how pathetic it was. my friend and i had to put a couple down where he lives (friday night when everyone comes out to play). they wanted to race us in his jeep cherokee 4.0. we beat both of the guys.

its just like when fast and the furious came out, only now its diesels. just like in the compact world, they can be fast but only if you know how. sure diesels only need to be reprogrammed, larger injectors, exhaust, intake, intercooler, possibly but not needed turbo upgrade, and you have a beast. an 800whp 1100 lbs/ft beast.

my sister got ticketed twice and had to take a traffic course. a police officer there said they don't pull anyone over on streets until they're going +5mph. and they won't go after anyone on the freeway unless they're doing +15mph. But that might just be here in Oregon. Oh and there is a crap load of raised trucks here. they always rev their engines at me when we're sitting at red lights in town where the limit is 25 and i just laugh.

I've got a 96 Ram and I love it. The best part of having a diesel is pulling up next to a hybrid and just laying on the gas when you take off and blowing black smoke all over them. And to the guy who said diesels with mods get crap gas mileage you might want to rethink your statement.

As opposed to Cobalt drivers who think they're fast?

Yeah because comparing our cobalts, 20k VS a 75k truck makes ALOT of sense.

The point is, anyone who thinks they have something fast and tries to race everything on the road is annoying... be it a Civic, a Cobalt, or a Dodge truck...
