As has been stated before, I've never seen these in California, but a couple in the Southern States, most likely Tennessee as that's where I spent most of my time down there. Has to be said there are a few odd-balls down there with odd-ball views on pretty much everything, so this kind of fits in tbh.

Still not a smokey as my nextdoor neighbour's oil powered lawn mower though. I can't see by back garden when he fires that thing up.

I also live in the US. Most aholes who roll coal don't do it for any other reason than they're antisocial wkers who like leaving giant clouds of black smoke in their wake, particularly if you're driving behind them in something with the roof down. Ought to be cause for public flogging IMO.
Leave then.

The dodge ram 2500 cummins is a fantastic truck. 30 uk mpg and enough torque to pull well over 18000lbs. I think maybe 800ft lbs. Super comfortable and very fast. A cummins will last well over 500k miles when maintained properly. A friend has an f450 now that thing is a train.

Remember watching tractor pulling as a kid on Eurosport back in the 90's and thinking wtf with the amount of smoke generated, it's such an odd sport but imo much more of a spectacle watching one in it's natural environment then watching a diesel truck do a quarter mile.

This is insane, 4000hp! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tU8uMa1RT-A

As usual, the Royal Navy did it first and did it best. No,they have not been hit. The order has been given to "make smoke!!"
