I like to see well-modified vehicles.

I can appreciate almost anything that indicates that someone put some passion and hard work into their car or truck. I can even appreciate when people pay professionals to build a dream car. I get it.

I don't mind when people modify their exhaust so it may be a little less "emissions friendly," because I understand that sometimes a catalytic converter has to go away to optimize scavenging and exhaust velocity. Plus, the hint of unburnt gas can make exhaust smell good.

With that said, I really don't like "rollin' coal."

The "dudebro diesel" with the exhaust gutted and ECU tuned just so it can bellow clouds of soot honestly pisses me off. It's the vehicular equivalent of that dudebro walking up to your picnic table in a public park and taking a big dump right next to your potato salad. It's my air, too, motherfucker. I don't want to get black lung because your genital insecurity drives you to do shit like that.

And I get that you're proud of being a dick. But really — the "Oh fuck a Prius and saving the planet!" attitude makes you look stupid at best and evil at worst. You're saying that you don't care about whether anyone can breathe around you. You're the asshole who lights up a big fat double-corona log of a cigar in a crowded non-smoking bar and revels in the fact that everyone thinks you're a dick.

Fuck you and your soot. If you like that shit so much just route the exhaust into the cab, motherfucker! I want to smell leaves and fresh cut grass in my neighborhood, not your penis envy.

I agree to an extent. I like powerful diesels, but I hate people tuning poorly specifically to blow smoke. That is an exclusively diesel kind of mentality (since it would kill most gas engines).

There is no defense for deliberately being stupid. As soon as you start over fueling simply to smoke, you might as well be lumped in with Hondas with fart can exhausts, stanced anything, and overly body lifted trucks.

And meanwhile the major diesel tuners out there know that black smoke means fuel that's not getting burnt completely, therefor losing power, so they actually tune their trucks to produce very little soot/smoke.

On a side note, I love when these guys try to race me and get ultimately decimated, then still feel the need to cut me off and try to smoke me out. I seriously think there is something in the water they drink....

The only smoke I've seen from a Banks truck was coming off the tires...

Exactly. But everytime I talk to a diesel bro they are so bent on explaining to me that it smokes because it makes so much power.

Keep in mind I also tune gas vehicles, and while not the same as diesels, I know enough to know they flaws in their explanations.

Lol, smoke of any color out of a gas vehicle means very bad things, like burning coolant and such.

This was filmed before dimwits came up with the 'rolling coal' stuff. Some cunts just deserve to have their tires slashed. And/or vegetables shoved down those smoke stacks. Rolling cole.

Burning coolant is by far the worst. Not to mention the taste and smell of the engine bay becomes noxious at best. The taste in your mouth takes forever to go away.

Worst vehicular odor I've encountered was when my Honda had a head gasket go and combustion gases were getting into the coolant. Acrid, nasty, and sticky.

There's one of those near my house (except its a dually with an extra couple inches of lift), and I've always wanted to sneak onto his truck in the middle of the night and take a shit down his stack.

I hate seeing these fuckwits too; but they're few and far between in CT. One cautionary tale I've heard of though - rolling coal in the presence of a cop (or even better, a DMV cop) will get your truck impounded for inspection of required emissions devices. Any missing stuff will mean big fines, and you don't get the truck back until it's inspected and tested after you replaced all EPA-mandated equipment.

You've obviously never smelled burned clutch or gear oil.

When I burned the clutch in my old Saturn, it smelled like brake residue. I've smelled burnt gear oil and it wa bad, yeah, but not like the burning coolant.

This comes from old diesel trucks. The metalurgy was bad back then, also fueling was a joke. So the only way they could make the engines last was to make them run richer under extreme load. Same can be said for tunning gasoline engines, people in the 60's tuned on the rich side as it guranteed all pistons got at least the required fuel and not burned up. Today its the same deal, some tunners add a bit more fuel when the engine is making peak hp to gasoline engines to cool the exhaust and help the motor live at high load, however not much more than to ensure some small safety margin. Most of this smoke comes from bad diesel tuning, look at diesel drag trucks, they barely blow any smoke during load, except on the start of the run.
