I stopped into a stealership to look over an 07 dmax the other day, i pulled in and left eh truck running, and started looking when the owner of the lot came out and starting looking over my truck. he heard the airdog running and gave me the "whats that noise?" i told him it was jsut he airdog.... got another dumb look and then asked "Whats that?" i jsut shook my head. this came from a guy who had 3 dmax on the lot, 4 powerstrokes and a few cummins.

And then there was the ultimate dumb question.... "what chip you have in it?"
me- "dont have a chip, got EFI live tuning"
him- "so you dont have it chipped?"
me- "nope, not like your thinking"

Yes and sadly half the city my mom lives in are richy kids with mommy and daddys wallets in hand, who know everything about everything, and the only thing I can picture is them doing is standing in the drive through window in 5 years saying "You want fries wit dude" as I nod smile and walk away.

oh the one that i got today at school
him "i saw u pull in at i noticed some black smoke coming from under ur truck. is that normal"

I always laugh when people say, "did you know your trucks burning oil, it was smoking black when you pulled into the parking lot"

I think someone should have told my mom, her 6.2L K5 blazer was my favorite vehicle in the family growing up.

I'm getting sick of people saying, "So, you got a chip in that thing?"
