Rolling coal will cost ya
A cool million.
https://www.thedrive.com/news/tuner-...defeat-devices Had one of these coal rollers pass me the other day, just so he could spew his exhaust in front of me. He played checkers and I played chess, and cut him off a mile later. |

Unfornituely we get a lot of the Lance Armstong want a bees up here at the lake.
They have a very nasty habit of screaming they have a right to use the road, the problem is they do not obey traffic light or stop/yield signs and ride side by side which is not legal up here on our curved,twisty hilly roads! We also have a bunch of red necks that live up here with diesel PUs, and most of those people have a short temper. I have seen- a couple of coalings. One was very well deserved by the bikes. That truck put out a smoke screen that a Naval destroyer could have made to cover a aircraft carrier. As far as getting caught its a trade off as we get very few LEOS up here on the lake as its on the far end of the county. That keeps the bikers from getting caught pulling their bullshit so I guess it also helps out the diesel guys. (fair is fair) I was about 12 vechicles behind the close to 30 pesty bikes driving my rather clean 15 Vette Vert and saw the smoke show and quickly turned around as I did not want that oil on my car. |

I don't think there is a diesel pickup truck in my county that hasn't had its emissions deleted.

The thing is, a properly tuned diesel truck that has some of the restrictive crap deleted will not only perform better and last longer, but it also gets significantly better gas mileage. And properly tuned, "deleted" trucks don't actually "roll coal."
So, what causes more pollution? Getting less mpg, or getting more mpg. For what it's worth, I actually dislike the people who have their trucks set up to actually "roll coal." Douche move, although sometimes, it's satisfying to see asshole protestors get smoked, in the exhaust sense |

How does one roll coal? I assume my Sprinter chassis motor home does not have that ability.
