**** like that is going to kill what little bit of life this hobby has left in it. I'm assuming the person coming out of the store was an innocent bystander, not to mention it probably filled the area between the doors up with smoke for whoever else was coming out.

It has to stop. Every time I see this stuff I think of the Tread Lightly organization and how badly we need spokespeople so us diesel heads will remember to respect others. I can see doing it on back roads or at competitions..I can even see letting some tailgating ******* have a face full, but this kind of stuff can't keep happening.

I don't know anybody else's experiences here but I spend a good amount of time drivin rental cars around the country. Although I love my truck, it's just a fact that as a group we diesel truckers have gotten rude as hell. I can't even count how many times I've been cut off, crowded over, smoked for no reason and everything else. and it's most of the time not even by gasser trucks but a fellow diesel jockey. We've gotten arrogant and rude as hell towards the general population gassers and it's killin us.

Very true.....we've even gotten arrogant and rude as hell towards our own brethren, just because of the brand they choose to drive.

It's ridiculous and the morons who drive diesel vehicles are going to find themselves on the wrong side of an ***-whooping, and it won't be coming from individuals, it will be coming from the government and law enforcement. So sad that idiots have to ruin everything good about living in the U.S.
