I grew up on a farm and hate the city to be honest. I miss the smell of diesel in the morning. Just thinking about diesel reminds me of home lol

I can't stand diesels. Seems a lot of douchebags drive those things who just get off on fogging people in traffic.

For me to make the power I'm making I spent about 3k on the truck. I more the double the power at the wheels and 2.5 times the torque. Plus my mpg went up by 6

Sounds like a good time! I was there in spirit though I was having fun elsewhere.

The funny thing is, Nick actually thinks we raised the limiter. A great placebo well placed. Way to drive, Nick!

In that case I may be able to keep up, especially with those 2 second reaction times in the videos!

And is that a consistent r/t? I may have to jump in on the slow car shit talking.
