You know what grinds my gears?

Missing out on a $230,000 house 3 years ago that is now worth $350,000 and paying rent as high as the mortgage payment would have been. :argh::argh: :se:

Could have been worse, you could have bought in Florida 3 years ago and all the numbers would be going the other way, you paid 350 now worth 230 and you couldn't get half the payment with rent

Yeah, where do you live where real estate is going up? Canada? WTF? :s:

and some people just like the way chrome looks. my Bronco has chrome bumpers, wheels, and exhaust tips. It gets me home all the time. knock on wood it has never left me somewhere else

Yup.

lol .... if i remember correctly Alberta would happen to be in canada lol but i'm no geography expert....

It was a rhetorical question, numbnuts. :bat:

you know what grind my gears?
hipocrates that rip on anybody younger then 18 cause the drive like jackasses when infact they arent much older then 18 themselves and of course they like "anything thats fast enough to get in trouble in" :fu1::fu::fu2:

i agree with wisconsin redneck. just cuz i'm under 20 people think that you have to drive like a jackass everybody has there moments in it. and it grinds my gears to have some kid in their daddys truck trying to race me. i know i can beat you whats the point in even trying to race. and ricers are making me the maddest of all. damn people trying to bzzzz bzzzzz around me. and people that stink up my whole room when they walk in. maily fat stinky people.

So, being a DB Elite means NOT reading a post correctly, taking it WAY out of context, then personally ousting an individual that made a post you don't agree with??? Wow, truly "elite"...

I said nothing about driving like a jackass, because I'm guilty of that myself at times. I said that I get annoyed by young people (especially common in the under 18 bracket) that make it seem like such a great accomplishment that they are young and BOMBing out their diesel truck. The last time I checked, there is no age limit on being able to work on your rig. I've personally been wrenching on diesels since I was very young, and it was a major influence in becoming a mechanical engineer, but I feel no need to brag about it or make it part of some social status power play because it really proves nothing, hence I get annoyed when people put it as so. So, NO I was not being a hypocrite, and I'm sorry if you disagree with me, but there's no need to be an asshat about it...

Just my two cents...:w2:

When i fuel up my truck at the beginning of the week.And when i drive by the same gas station the next day and see diesel is 5 or 10 cents cheaper.

x2 on that one happens to me all the time

You know what grinds my gears

watching people at farm sales bid 5 year old equpment within $200 of brand new price :argh:

Woking at our shop and never finding the right tool for the job. I spend more time seaching than fixing its a real pain in the A$$ :scare2:

Fixing crap that everyone else breaks and leaves

People being to lazy to check their oil :argh:

You know what grinds my gears ...

rant over

You know what grinds my gears:
working all day, then when you get back at the end of the day all your foods ate up and your drinks are all gone. and people that think just cuz you have stacks you want to race them. and every cop that drives by you wants to stop you.

You know what grinds my gears:

STUPID PEOPLE!!!

It's alright to be stupid but have some common sense!

That is all.

you know what grinds my gears?
people that are to busy looking at their cellular telephone to look where they are driving and notice that the truck infront of them has came to a stop waiting for the cars infront of him to go after a red light turned green and rear ends said truck infront of him...... **cough** codiesel**cough** :argh::argh::argh::argh::ouch::argh:

You know what grinds my gears? that just because im 18 that means i drive like a idiot, and i so sick of ppl saying that ALL 18 year olds are bad drivers.or that because im so young that i dont have a clue what im talkin about when it comes to diesels, or just because i put a stack on my truck that every damn vehicle either wants to race me or have a pulling contest!!!!

You know what grinds my gears? going to a damn rodeo and the announcer keeps saying cummings. are people really that stupid.

Gears are grinding over being in damn WV after being in Ohio after being in PA, and not being able to go back to Texas until next month. Part of that oil field life.

You know what grinds my gears? What's with all these idiots who think it's okay to drive with their fog lights on in the city??? :ph:

You know what grinds my gears?

Everyday people screaming blow some smoke, burn the tires, or let me drive your truck! People not respecting their equipment. People actually trying to race you when your pulling a trailer. Seriously?

I outran a 6.0 powerjoke pulling an empty 40' flatbed.:w2:

what grinds my gears is when these lil boyz hate because they have daddys money and jacked up their trucks and slamed on a programer and exhaust and hate on you cuz you actualy work for your stuff and wana race all the time.
also when boyz hate on girlz cuz they drive diesels. sorry honey my truck looks better than yours. when people feel the need to hate on your stuff cuz they jelious. when guys come to me saying since ima grl i need to be ina ricer not a diesel twice as big as theirs. AND when people say since your under 18 you cant drive to save your life. please i may have only been on the road for two years but i can tell you i drive with more sence than most of these idiots on the road these days. and people who brag about their stuff when its not "theirs" its their daddys....... yeah ok im done

It is ok to drive with your fog lights on in the city. i do it all the time :w2:

The only reason I can see it being excepted is if the fog lights are the only lights low enough on a lifted truck to not blind people. Then I guess it is ok.

i do it cuz it lights up the road better :tu:

Pisses me off when friends call me and tell me there A/C is only coming out the defrost on a Mustang, I tell them to check for a disconnected vacuum line and I figured they as least done that.

So when I do make it by he says look at it quick, so I go the the a/c on the firewall and see the vacuum line coming out trace it to the broken end, so in 10 minutes it's all working.


Now if it had been mine I'll had to pull the dash, the easy stuff never happens to me:argh::argh::argh:

:nshock:

Seriously guys??? Fog lights with low beams on is just a wall of light. Even on the highways when I do it, semi-trucks will flash their lights at me telling me to turn them off- whether I'm passing from behind or from head on. In the city there's no need for it. With all these new cars with their :edit: HID headlamps, why the hell would anyone feel the need to run MORE lights and turn on their fog lamps too? :s:

On second thought...next time some idiot in an import is driving with his fogs on I'm just going to run my hi-beams.

You know what grinds my gears?

When I leave my truck in the driveway sitting for 3 days start it up go inside come back out a few minutes later and I got antifreeze all under my truck. Somehow it mysteriously got a crack in the plastic from sitting there. :argh:

About the only reason any trucks' head lights ever blinded anyone is because they were improperly aimed. This usually happens when some numb nut installs a levelling kit and calls it good. Fogs have nothing to do with it. If you raise the front more than the rear, you have turn down the headlights to get them aimed back down at the road.

Simple as that.

I can tell you why:

reason number 1:
Because it's sooo cool in their mind

reason number 2:
Soccer mum does not know that she turned on the fogs...

I run the Sylvania SilverStar Ultra all the way around. They are bright as shit so i tend to get flash quite often and ppl tend to get pissed when i follow them. they are the best replacement bulb that i have found. and it is just a habit when i jump in the truck at night to turn the fog lights on because i live in the country and the extra light is nice when drivin on gravel. also if ppl piss me off in the city i hit them with the KC's lol

:offtopic:

It grinds my gears when those scooter kids are tailgating me in the city to use my slipstream.
Do they have any idea that the solid trailer hitch mount will kill them if I have to brake and they get under the truck?
I hate it when they pass me in the city in front of a stop light to be the first to get of the stoplight.
20 yards behind the lights you have those annoying scooters in front of you with a top speed of 35 miles. Of course "you" can't pass because of oncoming traffic...
And they stink like hell from 2-stroke oil.

But if you honk they always fall almost from their scooters, hehehe

Very nice!..... I meant with a load on but whatever lol
