Default I couldnt believe my ears...

I went to the Western Nation Rock Crawl last week end and while a buddy of mine and I were standing at the back of my truck, this old guys walks over, bends down so his old eyes could focus, and hollars back to his 3 sons I guess, "Nope, it's got the woosie engine..." I almost fell over, I was thinking to my self "these Ferd and Chevy guys are getting down right stupid now...but then I got thinking, he may have had the 6.7 Cummins"...either way, not a smart thing to do when you dont know exactly what the other guys got. What ever it was they didnt think it was all that big and bad when I asked if they wanted to go play...oh well, it takes all kinds.
Just had to vent...the guy made sure I heard him...if your gonna talk the talk I feel he could have walked the walk.

Probably one of those guys with the "it's only a 6 cylinder" mentality. I've bumped heads with a few of those recently.

That would have gotten nothing more that a slightly twisted laugh from me in response, followed by a, "Uh yeah, OKAY......here's my business card.........Call me when you need me to tow you, your truck, your trailer, and your family up the next hill to the dealership to get yours fixed."

I'm gonna make a business card.......My tag line will be.....Specializing in PowerStroke and Duramax Recovery Services
