Wait a minute..... Hold the focking phone....

You are trying to educate me with a YouTube video that has a 1 1/2 second blurb by some dipshit mechanic in Saskatchewan?

OMG...... Seriously?

Damn this is getting almost as bad as the "496 or 540" topic lol....

Think we should all just calm down a min and look at the "what a piece of ass" thread justin happily brought back to the top.


Sent from my iPad using SoCal Jet Boats

I work for the west coasts largest mechanical contractor doing HVAC, controls and refrigeration.

I have been doing this work for nearly 20 years.

Before that I was an automotive service technician and boat mechanic, I worked on both commercial and pleasure water craft. I spent nearly 15 years on that trade before doing what I do now.

Let me just say, that some of the comments on here are so uneducated and environmentally irresponsible, it totally makes me think of the condition of the river after the tube float...

Your mother does not follow you around picking up after your dumb ass. What you spew into the environment is EVERYBODY's business. You ever heard of the off road campaign of "Tread Lightly"? do you know why that came about? It was because of stupid irresponsible douche bag punks going out onto public lands and destroying natural habitats. Why in the hell do you think the BLM and other Nazi government agencies were able to come in and take over? Because these morons gave them the tools necessary to do so... Nothing else. They had evidence of total disregard of the environment and were able to convince congress, the president and the general public that they had to step in... Basically had to be your mother...


Why do you think diesel trucks are now being SMOG inspected? Because of what people are doing by "Rolling Coal" on people and being a complete punk dick.... You gave them every tool they needed to establish this precedent. You mother had to come in and take control....

Why do you think most inland lakes, with very few exceptions now have a decibel restriction for noise? Again, because super loud isn't loud enough and we have to be dry stack headers and bus the marinas and water front housing... Again, needed mother to come clean up your act.

Why do you think it is that Caterpillar completely quit building DOT diesels?  Because it was too expensive and difficult to build a reliable diesel service engine to meet the new DOT standards...

So you think you're making it so the standards will be reduced by creating a carbon trail? WTF.




FWIW, to anyone reading this thinking they know everything because some fuctard in Saskatchewan says it is less pollution than a gasoline engine exhaust, he is totally FOS. Diesel exhaust carries 200X the emissions that a car can create. Even if that car ran like total crap.


Just so you know... You know that purpleish/brown nasty smoke looking shit you see in the sky in metropolitan areas? That my friends is NOX (oxides of nitrogen), diesel exhaust produces more than 25% of that NOX... Still think it's "environmentally Harmless"?

You also think that because a large portion of the black smoke "falls to the ground" that it does not get into the water supply and contaminate everything that lives in, drinks and swims in that water?

Think again.


Get a clue.

I am done with the idiotic thread.

We care because "rolling coal" has lead to more and more diesel emission controls.

The EPA/CARB could care less how many more mpg's you get blowing black smoke. They love to throw videos of rolling coal on the liberal media as a way to control diesel vehicles. There's a reason there aren't more diesel cars and SUVs in the US and that's because of State emissions. Environmental extremist will always use black smoke as a reason to restrict and ban diesel vehicles.

My diesel will puff smoke like all diesels during a pull under load, but it's dumb to go out of the way to make excess smoke. Plus excess smoke is a waste of fuel, not an increase.

Never mind I'm out, on a honest note I guess I am one of those pricks that puff a lil cloud here and there. For future notice please keep away for excessive smoke.

This thread carried on further than I thought it would....
I too agree with many of you... about why rolling coal, isn't a good idea. Someone asked if diesel owner's would pay 75 to have a smoke switch..... nope!  Serves me No purpose. And I too prefer to fly under the radar.  Whether smoke is harmless or not....it Looks bad and I for one  don't want to aid the environmentalists in restricting our vehicles or dirt/water toys. 
Now....where's the "what a piece of a$$" thread....

All I can say is wow....

You wanted me to back up what I said about it being as harmless as a gas engine and I showed a video of proof whether you believe it or not. What proof do you have besides your thoughts ?

It's on the internet... They can't put anything on the internet that isn't true!

And I suppose your word over the guy in the video is correct right ? That you know more then a diesel mechanic right ? Or anyone for that matter. You think that because you can't actually see the emissions coming from a gas burning engine that it's 10x better then a diesel ? To be honest man you sound like one of those know it all guys. Where no one else is right but you.

My point was that no one actually knew that op was out rolling coal just because he got a letter in the mail about it. Like I stated before I've gotten one and I've maybe rolled coal twice in the 2 years I've had my truck. The bottom line is that diesels produce suet to make power and improve fuel economy. AS I STATED ABOVE I DONT THINK ITS COOL TO ROLL COAL.

I'm done with this topic. People on here are so quick to judge before they have the whole story

Kwood sorry to jack your thread and make a big argument. Enjoy your duramax before the tree huggers put them off the road for good

OK, the gloves are now off.....

It actually takes a lot for another persons ignorance to piss me off, but you managed it.

First, Kwood DID say in as many words that he had been rolling coal.... Your reading comprehension is piss poor at best...

Second. In the video that YOU shared, which is not what I would call a Nobel prize winning piece, said how harmful to health and environment diesel emissions are. Apparently you had selective deafness when that part aired... The dipshit mechanic was just down playing it based on absolutely no factual information at all.... But you bought it... What is he going to do? say " yeah what we're doing is actually very detrimental to the environment and can cause severe adverse health effects... C'mon man... Just because there is no law saying you can't do it, does not mean that it should be done... They aren't in California, or even the U.S.

It is like comparing filthy dirty coal fired power plants in China to ours and saying "hey, they do it"... Ever seen their air quality index? You can get cancer by going outside for an hour during the day.

Third, I do combustion analysis for a living. So yeah, I probably know quite a bit more than you about the subject.

Fourth, the proof is in about every air quality management study that has been done over the last 40 years. Not to mention the National Cancer Institute and the American Lung Association and the World Health Organization.

Mining companies spend buttloads of money trying to prevent miners from breathing spent diesel exhaust, this is not even speaking directly about thick black soot.... Diesel exhaust in general... So your saying the high carbon content shit you can't even see through is completely environmentally negative...


Good luck with all that...

Doesn't matter to me if you are a coal rolling fan or not. It was your annoyingly obtuse attitude toward the whole thing. In other words, a mentality that gives you the illusion that it is socially acceptable. I assure you, it is not.

Wake up gentlemen. We only have this one smelly dirt clod... Once the fat lady sings, it's over.

Oh yeah, and it was 200X better.... not 10X. Again, reading comprehension.

not to spark this riot up again but i dont no where i said i drive a freight train, but ill live with it cause i took jarvis and socalpsd advise and traded straight up for this hog, but now i got a problem... can i borrow someone diesel to tow my boat to the lake this weekend

Ha.....now....if you're trying to make light of this thread... Cool....kinda late   but OK.
If your instigating.... not cool
Be clear with your intentions, if you please.  There's tons of smart people here....of whom you may need advice, suggestions..... dare I say it....help, from.  If your poking fun....we're far less inclined to lend a hand.
Just being honest and up front. Take it for what you will. I'm not interested in adding fuel to this thread. 
Think about your actions before acting.

And what the hell car is that? Looks like it's off of minority report

just trying to clear the air i am really not the D*** that i feel that i got placed as by posting this, i dont think i stand alone on that but theres people that stand on the other side of the line i guess, i would never do the things like black smoke people wait for a 4 of july prade that guy deserves what he got but i think is a generation thing diesel trucks are the new hot rods, black smoke is the nature of the beast at the amount of the drivers want and i like my truck to have a little more.

and thats the new bmw i3 fully electric
