People that make fun of new guys. You all know everyone does it. People that are new to diesels either want huge power because they dont know torque is what youre after. The new guys that always say I want smoke and everyone just bashes that guy. Dont just bash on him. explain to the guy why smoke is bad and that big power is not usually streetable. Everyone was a new guy at one point in time, and most people like to smoke a lil every once in awhile.

but thats just me there are obviously more but thats one that gets me alot.

and rude or impolite people. what ever happened to opening the door for ladies, saying please and thank you, and a lot of other little things that people just dont do anymore

Hitting women. It is just something you dont do. I mean kidding around just playing with each other ok but if someone just hits a girl and I see it. I dont care who it is, I will knock their head off.

ok I think thats gonna be all for now

what really grinds my gears?

Reading through beagle1's post and agreeing with most of it

people who don't listen to common sense about diesels because their cousin's friends girlfriends uncle said otherwise.

people who just can't grasp the concept of the VE pump and recccomend upgrades for a P-pump to me constantly.

People that try to race me on the street....and after 3 miles of driving right next to me while speeding up, slowing down and reving up still don't get the point......I'm not going to race you!

People that think the most expensive product is the best out there.

people that "add" their horsepower up: 300hp stock, plus my 150 hp programer makes me have 450 hp. Freakin idiot

the guy that once told me I need to buy a air/fuel ratio gauge.

I'm sure I will think of more later.

Well if they are in a prius they can't stop to throw it away. So you need to give them some credit .

what really grinds my gears

the fact that i have questions to ask about my truck and the way certain things work, but i hesitate to ask, due to little or no respect for people (like myself) who just want to gain some knowledge in areas that may seem elematary to others,....just so maybe...maybe, i can do some of the work myself and not have to take it to my mechanic who likes to stic it to me raw.....not to mention i read 10x more threads, then i post in

Driving wise - what really grinds my gears is when some idiot pulls out of a side street and cuts you off, then proceeds to go 5 mph under the speed limit

what really grinds my gears is when i pass a cop going 10mph over the speed limit and he tears after me probably going twice as fast as i was, just to pull me over and tell me that age old bs question "do you know how fast you were going?'

yeah i do, a hell alot less than it took you to catch up to me

What really grinds my gears......

-People who kiss vendors azzez to get free or reduced rate goods/parts then NOT travel/participate in any diesel event anywhere where those goods/parts can be showcased and then later sell the very same goods/parts for a profit without considering the vendor may want them back.

-Weather Forecasters....
We can land a man on the Moon and space craft on Mars but we CAN NOT give an accurate weather forecast of the track of a storm or what it involves.
