The latest one. I was sitting in the school parking lot right after school and had my truck idling trying to warm up. Some random girl walks up to me and said "It sounds like your truck is missing." I told her it didn't have spark plugs for it to miss. She asks, "Then how the hell does it start and run?" I just face palmed myself and drove off.

One of the more dumber ones. I was at a GAS pump putting gas in a gas can for my four wheeler. I walk in to prepay, and the cashier goes, "You do know that's a diesel, right?" Me, being a smart ***. I said, "Really? I've been running gas in it for months and it only smokes a little."
He looked at me real funny and I walked away.

the one i hear is (do those stacks really work) duh also i noticed the neighbor kids would run out to the curb and watch me drive by, i though man these kids must really like monster trucks, then one day my 5 year old comes home from school and said (dad our truck sounds like a bus!!!) i could only laugh.

Ok so out here in Hawaii diesels arent the biggest thing to see someone riding around in and having a lifted cummins with stacks is like driving one of those bug zappers down the street. I've got whats in there a w12 or whats the gas mileage on that thing less than my hemi huh? And those damn rich folk in bmw,benzos,pasta rockets, never think to ask me how fast it is haha

Some of the more annoying one's I get as I'm about to get in my truck, "How do you get in it?" Well, if you just hold on a sec, you could watch me.

Same thing with getting out of it...

or the "How many gallons to the mile does that thing get?"

That's all I got for now.

i've gotten the whole "chip" thing before, "that got a cummings() in it?" "how long does it take ur glow plugs to heat up?" "why is there an extension cord hooked to ur truck? is it electric?"< i almost pissed myself over that one....

standin in the shop one day a guy pointed to a torque converter n said will that turbo fit on my car? he got all red faced n walked out when we all were rollin on the floor.
