Here's a wild idea if someone is tail gating you move over and let them get the ticket.

If someone tailgates me, guess what? I can always drive a lot slower.

IMHO when I had my 6.0 never really wanted to roll coal, and that was more for the fact that it was just better for my wallet ( and when diesel prices were sky it hurt enough ) You can do what you wish with your truck and if you want to roll coal that is up to you there are guys in diesels who like it and have the truck modded to do it.

The only thing about rolling coal is that depending where you are some states / provinces have the emissions testing and those who dont test but have laws on the books thru their department that governs safety do fine folks.

You see it with some states/provinces who if you are stopped will go stick their head underneath your truck to make sure you have deleted a truck ( not every state/province does this ) but I know Georgia does and you get a pretty hefty fine.

Obviously the choice is yours, for me I dont see the benefit of it nor do I want any attention from the DOT. I am sure if you look around someone will give you the info your looking for and the rest is up to you from there.

Don't forget to add the decal 'Up in Smoke" across your windshield. There's a few of these high-school guys running around with these smokers in my town. Also have the American flag flying from the bed too.

That's the kind of crap I expect from people who's family trees don't branch out very much.

Not a fan of all the emissions garbage on diesels, but even less a fan of rolling coal.


If it's not a CUMMINGS, BRO you can only roll coal with a CUMMINGS, BRO.

I remember probably 5 or 6 years ago a guy here on FTE used to do pull-offs with various superduties and a few F150s. And a guy showed up with his smoke tuned Cummins and blew it up.
