You know what grinds my gears?
When you know exactly what's going on but don't know how to explain it and when you try to voice your angle on it you end up looking like a moron even though you knew deep down exactly what you wanted to say but fumbled over the words, then someone with a better grasp on their verbal demonstrating comes up after you, points out all the things you said wrong, unintentionally makes you look like an a$$hat and then says exactly what you were thinking only in a clearer more understandable sense. Man that sucks...and it happens to me all the time.

x2 on everything but the music...
Chevy's with only one running light.
Every douchebag who assumes that your auto is a piece of crap.
People that aren't tired of the smoke after a year or so.
People that leave their trucks running all the time just to let everybody else know how special their Diesel is. The 20 minute warm up/ 10 minute cool down/ leave it running while pumping gas/ going into the store noise pollution jackasses.
"Cummings".
Any snakesucker who feels it necessary to go out of his way and demonstrate how impeccably well educated he is by clarifying that "pumps make flow, not pressure" while you're talking about pumps that make, you know, different pressures.
Every moron that repeats the mantra "I want a Cummins with an Allison in a Ford" like it's something insightful or original.
Every moron that arrives at the conclusion that the Cummins is the best engine, the Allison is the best transmission or the Ford is the best chassis without having any kind of experience regarding the matters themselves.
Every Allison transmission KoolAid gargler who will endlessly preach about how the Allison is the best transmission ever, just because he feels smart since he knows the name of the transmission manufacturer, not realizing that his opinion would be entirely nonexistent if GM didn't put an "Allison" badge on the side of their trucks.
HEUI injection.
People who use "NOS" as a genericized term.
Obviously ignorant people, who despite having to know that they're ignorant, will nonetheless argue with you that you can't run nitrous on a Diesel and have to run propane instead.
People who think that finny leaker intercooling is a necessity.
Superduties with lift kits. Every poser on the planet spews manjuice when they see a lifted Superduty.
Superduties with lift kits... At Glamis.
Women.
Exhaust tips bigger than the exhaust pipe.
Intake modifications that don't do crap but nonetheless invoke endless holy war arguments over which is better.
Stickers advertising what crap you have on your truck or want to have on your truck if you're not being reimbursed for displaying the sticker in some manner.
Stacks. At this point, just about any pickup with stacks.
Guys who listen to anything other than mid-80's to mid-00's alternative/ pop rock with female vocalists.
Anybody who talks about how awesome some online forum discussions were when I meet them in real life.
People who constantly brag about how they "blow peoples doors off" in 14 second trucks. Anybody else notice how it tends to be the slower trucks that claim the most kills, while the really fast trucks hardly claim any "kills" at all? It's almost like people with injectors and a chip are convinced they're fast while people with built engines realize that they're not nearly fast enough? Hmm...
The phrase "rolling coal". I don't know where it came from, but it's been around forever and it's never been anything but annoying.
People whose entire understanding of Diesel engines leaves them imagining a gasoline engine with glow plugs in place of spark plugs. These people get special credit when they argue with you that your Cummins has to have glow plugs because it's a Diesel and there's no way it could light the fuel off if it doesn't have glow plugs because all Diesels have glow plugs in place of spark plugs yeah totally lets go to Glamis and spooge on lifted Superduties.
In the same vein as the "pumps make flow" jackholes, the "it's not an 'injector', it's a 'nozzle'!" jackholes. Congratulations, you have a menial education from somewhere. Unfortunately the people who taught you are morons too, sorry, but I guess it won't stop you from interjecting your arrogance into our discussion through inflexible terminology anyways.
"Ford owns Cummins" parrots; a close second to these people are the people who don't understand my intentions when I fully support the misconception just to make sure those out of the loop never get in the loop because we don't want those idiots in the loop anyways.
DTR.

know what grinds my gears.....
salesmen who preach about how the "cummings" "v8".......enough said
the turbotonics guy that said they now make kits for dodge duramax's
people that think just cus it chuggs and smokes a bit something must be broken and its a POS
Kids with daddy's money or daddy's truck
hunters that shoot immature bucks, shoot a doe if your after meat.
diesel fuel being a unrefined petrolum and yet costing more.
---AutoMerged DoublePost---
oh and people that slap on a exhaust and a filter and the cheapest chip they can find and assume they make 500hp and 1000ftlbs at the least
