"Is that your truck?"
"Yep, I just got out of it"
"It's leaking gas"
"I can assure you it isn't"
One guy actually went so far as to get down on his hands and knees, swipe the puddle, and say "that's gas!"
So I went as far as to say "No, fucknut, that's diesel"
"same thing!"
and again, "No, fucknut, that's diesel"
License plate on my truck says "RFNRDY". Single most common question is "what're ya ready for?"
and the single most common answer is "your mom"
dude looked into the cab, and asked where the column shift was. I noted it was a 5 speed, pointed at the shifter, and he said "no no, that's the 4x4 selector"
"no no, I own the ****** truck, it's the shifter"
stupid **** like that. I don't know too much about my truck, but I know it's a friggin manual.
but the real cake was the guy in wendy's drive thru who insisted my chev diesel was a non turbo (despite the fact that it said "turbo diesel" on the hood, and has practically no exhaust, so it was kinda obvious)
I finally got tired of his ****, pulled up to the window, got out, popped the hood and said "WHAT THE **** IS THAT THEN? THE SPARE ALTERNATOR?
I honestly have little patience for those types. I mean, I've made the mistake, but I don't press the issue when corrected about someone else's property, when they are explaining it, unless I know I am right.
bad as those guys going around saying that some bikes have steering dampeners, and that countersteering is a myth.
edit:
Oh, should add. my F250 has no turbo diesel or powerstroke decals on it anymore. just say F250 XLT. no stacks, 4" out the back like a "normal" truck. I kinda like it that way.
The last guy to ask "that a diesel?" (as if a 94 7.3 is quiet) got told "Nope, this old 460 is right about ready to toss a rod. better watch out!"
