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

dont be so shy about it. I mean if someone says shit about it. just say hey im new to diesels so screw off. I mean everyone at one point or another was a new guy so they are usually just givin you shit. I ask a lot of dumb/new guy questions and yea I post a lot also but I read quite a bit more than I post surprisingly

What grinds my gears?

Power adders that claim huge MPG improvements.

Dealerships. I hate you all...:edit: you Calgary.

Showboating rednecks who think they're king of the world because their truck sits 8" higher than the rest of the world and they can make lots of noise. That's cool man, really it is, but don't be a moron.

Fuel stations with shit fuel....Thanks guys, you want to pay for my fuel filters?

Fuel companies...This ULSD crap really is crap. But I get the joy of figuring out how to protect my injectors with warranty approved crap on my own. Thanks for the help assholes.

16-20 year old kids who know :edit: all about handling a 7500lb truck that want to make smoke and drive like drunk morons. Your first car should not weigh more than 3000lbs until you are mature enough to handle that shit.

What grinds my gears: :dang:
These people who have a diesel pickup for one reason, status symbol. :argh: If you don't haul/work with your diesel then go buy a damn car or half ton gas truck (like a Chevy cause it gets the same MPG as my diesel). That way the demand gets back to normal and I can start paying less for fuel than gas like way back when.....before it was "cool" to have a diesel. Hell I drive my gas vehicles as much as I can people!!!!

when you go fishing and people look at you like your doing something wrong..... then go eat sushi.

You know what really grinds my gears??

Shipping from the US, no Canadian/local vendors (not necessarily here, but anywhere, including ebay), higher prices in Canada, customs fees, shipping damage, no refund policy on stuff that never worked or was broken during transit, Begle1's ceaseless whinging :moon:

You know what grinds my gears:
Those people who fill up their gas burners at the only diesel pump when there's plenty of gas pumps open.

You know what grinds my gears:

ok, i might make people upset and that is not the intention. so i apologize in advance.

Now this is comming from a cummins guy (me). I hate people that are so freakin brand loyal that if its not a CUMMINS its a piece of sh*t. I have respect for all diesel engines/trucks. Like when i drive my wifes Powerstroke, which i love, to town, there is always some punk a** " Know it all" That has to open his mouth telling me that Ford is junk and the engine is even more a piece of junk. and then they say SHOULD OF BOUGHT A CUMMINS.... ( even know i own one )I swear, if i had enough money id prob go to jail everytime someone tells me that. Some people need to accept the fact that there is more to pulling/racing/DD/towing then a cummins. i love my dodge but geez come on.

.............Rant over

you know what grinds my gears...
people who think that 16-20 year olds all drive like drunken morons all the time...
sometimes i do...... but i sure as hell know when the right and wrong time to do it is..

you know what grinds my gears there is no age limit for people to drive like drunken morons and that not everybody gets wiser when they get older:scare2:
