Anyone speak Duramaxeese?

So I'm flying down the road enjoying the SWEET new sound I've got since I pulled my cat yesterday and a Duramax changes lanes in front of me on a 5 lane.....no biggie he didn't cut me off or anything but there was no one in front of him and now he's in my way - SO I change lanes to the lane he came from and as I'm going by I romped on it right as my tail pipe was by his drivers door. That created an AWESOME roar and TONS of black smoke and I shot off like my usual bat outta helll. SO here is my questions - what did he mean in Duramaxeese when he bright lighted me?

A. Awesome rig man!

B. cough, cough, I can't see!

c. I'm sorry sir it was a foolish thing to do and I swear I'll never, ever do it again.

d. Why won't mine do that?

:burnout :burnout :burnout

Let me tell you this if that guy had any small mod done to his duramax like a 60 chip that crap would eat our Powerstoke lunch.Those things rock once you give them some help.At the DHRA nationals the quick ones were running 10's in the 1/4 at 123MPH,quickest 6.0 I ever saw ran 12:20.

Then maybe he should have used his gas pedal instead of his bright light switch - I'm always up for a challenge....and I doubt if he only had a 60 he would have even come close.

Agre on the light switch,but keep your wallet close to your heart if your racing for cash.

Maybe the lights were just a signal through all of the smoke, so no other drivers would bump into him.

I agree with Harald, after this year's DHRA nat's in Indy the D-max prooved to me that it's one awesome diesel engine. I was actually really surprised to see a few of them run 10 second times. It almost sobered me up it surprised me so much! Not even the "stroked lighting" shortbed superduty 6.0 broke 12 seconds......

I had a guy in the shop today pick up a PPE tuner for his new 06 LBZ dually. We set it on kill and It was lame! They still dont have it in the new trucks. The LLY and LB7 can rock if you spend about 5K in trany mods first. You get an LLY with one of the PPE Hot+2 Eliminator tuners in it and watch out. They add 355 hp to the flywheel. I would guess 300 at the rears. The problem is if you get close to 460+ hp the allison cant handle it stock. Not too many times anyway. Spend some cha-ching on trans mods, then start adding drugs and a water/meth kit, then an Aroura turbo, and that little rice burner is hauling the mail. Did I mention you have to also add tie rod sleeves so you dont mess up the front end. I love my Ford's.
