Google "Rolling Coal"

Definition of diesel.
Do you really need me to post up the total pollution done by the creation of ONE "hybrid" car? A hint, that "coal rolling diesel" will never be able to match the damage done in its whole lifespan.

Carbon soot, btw folks, is a GROUND level contaminate not airborne, first good rain washes it all down where it breaks down to *gasp* carbon. Really if you all are going to have knee jerk reactions to things, educate yourself first. *NOTE* I hate the idiots that roll coal too but for vastly different reasons.

What about the total pollution from building a coal rolling truck? comparing the pollution of a car being created to that of a vehicles emissions is a real fair comparison.

1) The reason they "roll coal" is they are injecting too much fuel into the engine. Its not "performance" at all, the cleaner a diesel runs, the more power it can produce (lean = good)
2) The whole "bro" culture, just makes me want to smash kittens in the face with a tire iron. They are almost (not quite) as bad as the damn hipsters.

Now, if they tossed in an ATS turbo, backed off the injectors some, they would still "throw some soot" on launch, but put down a hell of a lot more power to the ground.

The price of tea in china is pretty steady, in the meantime you're unemployed, so saying you "tune" diesels for 10 years to impress a random stranger on the interwebz makes you look like a giant bag of unimpressive douche.

no clue what you are getting on at. I do some diesel tuning for friends, build a few up, working a 2012 3500 right now for a friend.

So, by your logic, only a "pro" knows what they are doing and everyone else just makes it up as they go?

holy crap kid, you really are like 16.
