What is it with people that drive hybrids and smart cars? I come out of the grocery store and there is a bitch parked next yomy dump truck in a smart car. I open the door and she gets out of her car screaming and cussing me for destroying the eenvironment. She is going off the deep end carrying on telling me how she was tempted to bust my windshield so I couldn't drive that polluting monster around. I was pissed and asked her what right she had butting her nose into mine or anyone else's buisness. I was fired up and screaming at this point. I told her it was a good thing she didn't touch my truck because I would have smashed her face in then loaded her pos smart car in my bed and dumped the pos in the river. I had a couple guys clapping. Then the sherrif pulled up and we had to explain it all to him.

Just another goof ball that drank the kool aide.

Reminds me of a cashier I ran into at Walmart once. I had just left work and still had my uniform on which has the name of the power plant I work at on it. He said "oh, you work at that place that kills people"....

I said nope, I work at that place that keeps the lights on. He started to tell me how terrible it was with all the pollution and I just tuned him out. Trying to tell him about the millions upon millions they've spent in pollution controls would have been a waste of breath.

It took me an hour to calm down. I hate people like that.

[cmann250]

I enjoy heated rhetoric like that. I always win.

I told her it was a good thing she didn't touch my truck because I would have smashed her face in then loaded her pos smart car in my bed and dumped the pos in the river.

That's epic.

I never get anyone yelling at me about my truck. Except for the guy at work. He always bitches about exhaust smoke, even in the shop about equipment! I tell him not to worry about it, it's only been proven on laboratory rats in Cali. And he's not in Cali.

I'm not going to get into tickets....well, ok! From the time I turned 16 until about my mid to late 20's, I had a speeding ticket on my license. I'd get one off, and with in a month I had another one on it. Between the hot rods, motorcycles, and the family deformity, (right leg longer than the left ) I was always in trouble. I got dinged on the bike once for 75 in a 55 zone. I was coming down from about 105. Then there was the 75 in a 45, I was just coming out of this great S curve and the cop was coming towards me. He was backed into a driveway waiting by the time I got there, so I just pulled on over....

I got a bunch of them!

[PToombs]

Anybody else have trouble with the smilies? I just tried the bunch of laughing smilies and when I click it would cause the window to disappear and no smilie.

[cmann250]

Where's Douglas? He has some fantastic speeding stories.

I have had the same issue, Pete.

[PToombs]

Caleb, he his speeding stories use a different kind of speed...............

[cmann250]

Caleb, he his speeding stories use a different kind of speed...............

Some.... yes.

I was recalling a story that involved a motorcycle, a quick look over both shoulders, and a interesting chat with a Federale that was just over the hill.

So since my first gen isn't running and I just deleted my fourth with a custom tuned mini maxx I've been playing with the software for making the tunes. It's extremely addicting. I've flashed the computer with my own stuff twice now and it's just getting more interesting

Who knows about electric and wiring? My dads trailer has a winch on it and is currently setup with a car batt in the tool box. I want to run cable from my battery to a connector on the rear bumper to do away with relying on an always questionable battery on the trailer. Ill run cables to the winch and connect them when i need it. It would also be handy for jumping other vehicles.

Surely this cant be as simple as just running the cable. Do i need a circuit breaker or any other fancy stuff? What size cable should i use? I just dont to burn my truck to the ground.

[CumminsPower59]

Just run your cable, there are pre made quick connectors, those would be what I would use. I'm pretty sure I've seen them as a kit, with jumper cables. I think I seen them on AW Direct's website....

[RumbleFish]

Ya ive seen those Ike. I just wasnt sure if i need to fancy it up in the interest of safety. Im sure the factory wiringcan take a lil extra load here and there right??
