Worthless but interesting
I dont know why Im posting this, but just kind of tickled me so I thought I would share it with yall. Today the wife and I were driving to meet her family to eat dinner. I was approaching an intersection and could see just clouds and clouds of (from a distance) appeared to be smoke. Wondered what it was and came to the next light and couldnt even see the light or the vehicles in front of me. Well once the light turned green I quickly realized it was a super duty! At the next light I was able to see taht it was a 6.0! 05-07 body style. I have NEVER seen a vehicle putting out that much steam in my life, let alone running on the street! Hope its still got warranty! Tried to get a pic with my cell phone but couldnt get a good shot. Well Im done with this pointless post, just thought I would share.

My old Lebaron would do that, whenever I stopped it would start steaming and smoking so bad out the exhaust, and then I'd hammer on it and it would clear out finally. Checked the turbo and it was leaking coolant, through a new turbo in myself and that was done.

Mine did the white smoke show when the egr cooler failed. Driving down the road and all of a sudden the engine fan came on, I looked behind me and all I could see was white! Just like the spyhunter game (smoke screen).
