I stumbled across this on YouTube and completely lost my ability to resist posting a reply to all the comments from the cheap seats. I really do know better, but my fingers don't always listen.

new dodge truck smokes wile pulling a camper - YouTube

 

according to the cartoon, that smoke just means its got mass hp. and its wicked fast.

 

I just noticed something... look at the name on the side of the trailer.

 

haha stupid Dodge doing Ford's work.

 

Stupid owner, destroying a good truck, regardless of make. What a way to waste a truck.

 

Probably just needs big stacks... And bigger tow mirrors.

 

It looked like the trailer was on fire at first...

 

Maybe if he stacked his stacks and then stacked edge with banks stacked with bullydog and added a bigger cummins sticker to the back window it would clear up for him?????

 

Bigger sticker for sure, maybe one on the trailer too to help push

 

oh the irony!

 

That was just a shame. I wouldn't give up my 7.3 for that truck, but it was still a nice truck that deserved a better owner.

 

all I really noticed in the video was the guy talking smack was bogartin the left lane while the center lane was open.........

Talks cheap and until you have walked 100 miles in another mans shoes it's best to just keep speculation to yourself.

 

I'm trying to do this "safely" because this is a family forum, so ill post the link but not the image (its not bad, just maybe a little inappropriate for younger crowd.) my girlfriend noticed the other day that the dodge ram head looks surprising similar to something else. Here's a pic of the ram emblem:



Here's a link to what she said it looked like... http://i1342.photobucket.com/albums/...psb79d40cd.jpg

There are interesting similarities...

 

In all honesty, if there were three more lanes, I'd still grab the far left one when passing a trailer engulfed in smoke. There's no way to know it's coal until he reached the truck... it could just as easily have been a tire ready to blow, or something on fire near a propane tank.

You make a good point, though... he might have just popped his turbo and he's praying to make it to the rest area at the crest of the hill. It being a Dodge (I call 'em Smudges... from the smudge-pot days), and my experience with local Dodge owners, has led me to begin assuming. I need to stop doing that.

 

ryegrass....

Unless that tralier has a chit ton of gold in it, or lead, there is zero reason that there should be that much smoke unless something is broke, or someone did a ghetto mod to force it to spray more fuel...

regardless, theres no excuse to not downshift and up the rev's or for gods sake turn off the OD at least..
