i love the smoke on startup, last night i was at the taco truck and a little kiezen speed ricer parked right next to my truck about as close as he could get to the exaust with his window down when i started my truck to leave it all went right in the window where he was talking on his phone and smoking, shortly after he was cussing up a storm and i was driving away bet he will never park so close to a diesel rig again
btw my truck has out run many a cars with kiesen speed on the side with the little b****es that think their s**t is fast nothing beats a 12v cummins expecially pulling weight

Default What I like -

I have been married to the same woman for 43 years -
I have the first Diesel truck I ever owned for 18 years - it's still my primary vehicle.
I have not traded either one in on a newer model.

I like my truck and love my wife even though neither one is as pretty as they used to be.
I like my truck and love my wife because they have been faithful hard workers and never complain - just keep on going!

I like my truck and love my wife because after all this time I'm finally getting a handle on how to take better care of an understand both.

I like my truck and love my wife because after all these years and miles niether one owes me anything yet they keep on going.

I often tell people that the old Dodge is the only material thing I have ever purchased that actually lived up to it's advertising hype.

What's really nice is that neither one needs to be plugged in no matter how cold it gets

i love that the springs creak when i turn or flex, love that at idle the entire truck is shaking itself apart, i love how the exhaust displaces so much air it hurts your ears, i love how light the truck is so i get crazy mpg running 4.10's, i love how when these trucks are built they are usually one off trucks because the aftermarket support is almost non existent.

I'd have to say the land-speed-record windows, the amazing mileage, the looks all the "country boys" give it (we have a s*#&ton of posers in my town), and the fact that it's louder than my buddies $15k+ drag truck when it's bone stock with a muffler delete. That's a real American auto.
