The Smoke Switch!

SMOKE SWITCH DIESEL
Just lurking my local CL and came across this and it just made me laugh pretty dang hard. This is how diesels get a bad name and I wonder how many people would melt the truck down by super high EGTs thinking they could run around in that all the time.

Yep. I run in 80E till someone like a pedestrian pisses me off by running across my path and forcing me to stop quickly. Switch to 140 Aggressive and blow them a few lungfuls of smoke.
