Done for the same reason that so many modify car exhausts to make more noise. With extremism in increasing numbers. many are now proud to advertise their lower intelligence. Proudly announce to the world they can be brainwashed by rhetoric, soundbytes, and advertising.

It's now cool to be dumb and uneducated. As a result, number of young males seeking sufficient education (high school and college) is decreasing. Fortunately girls have been increasing their education meaning America is becoming less masculine.

I felt the need to beat the shit out of those people when I saw the video. I've been behind enough well tuned diesel vehicles on my bike to know that would be no fun.

Maybe I'd just lock them in their trucks with the exhaust ported into the cab.

What total douche nozzles.

The stupid cork soakers that willingly put their face into the cloud are what boggles my mind.

What the retarded fuck?

At the price of fuel, why would you want to piss it up the stacks??? Damnifino?
Years ago, when I drove a truck, we would turn up the pump. But that's another story.

Because Obama...duh, Buster!

If they really want to roll coal, we should give them those awful GM diesel cars from the late 70s/early 80s.

Fuel was not expensive. When gasoline hit record high prices, SUV sales increased while other sales diminished. Fuel is only expensive if thinking emotionally. People feared when gasoline approached $4 per gallon. Now that is the normal price and nobody is cutting back.

Fuel has been so cheap that automakers even tried to maintain sales of 1960 technology engines even after 2000. Innovation in domestic engines in 40 years has only occurred due to government regulation. Energy remains quite cheap.

Texas is planning ten new coal plants. Three have started construction. That is contempt for what made American great.

Ironcially, that coal industry could innovate if it wanted (if it was patriotic). IGCC technology is but one example. Big coal has done no innovation for 40 years. Last industry innovation may be the high thermodynamically efficient plant built in Philly some 50 years ago. Coal industry is downsizing and has a reputation that it deserves.

My little metro looks like those coal rollers and I sure didn't fix it that way
