Had a friend tell me that if I got a CAI in my truck I would need to get a brand new tranny and rear end because they couldn't handle the new power.

Brought the truck in for service today and heard the guy who pulled it in go "Man it's idling rough, think he needs a tuneup bad!"
Always buying things I dont need to impress people I dont know
"Nice diesel"
and
"Why would you drop a truck?"

To date... Go to pizza hut... Standing in line. "hey that sticker says "ls1truck""
I reply. Yeah it's a website for LS powered rides
"so it doesn't have a ls1"
No for now it's a 5.3. But it's is a LS motor. Cam intake bolt on's etc
"but it's not a LS1"
Correct
"what's it run"
Well best I've got is 13.8s
"my s10 is faster then that"
Oh really? What's done?
"nothing it's just the 4.3 v6" with a flowmaster
What track did you do this at?
"Prescott" (since none of you are from here that is a 8th mile track 1000 ft if your slow)
No my time was 1/4 mile
"mine was too"
Well let's run em.
"I sold it"
I just walked off...
Well I bought my truck in Texas and now live in KC so I'm always catching crap for my "Texas Edition" badges. People love to be smartazzez and ask me what makes it a Texas Edition so I love to give them a smartazz answer back myself like, "it has a full camo interior and beer dispenser" or a "deer tracker and a club to beat your wife", and then I walk off. Usually catches them off guard. Sarcastic pricks!

As if the tbss(saab center capped wheels) dont clue you in on same drivetrain... I literally get laughed at every sunday at kdale before my first run and they point to other ride to win...
