I was looking at the site and pondered... Its called The Diesel Stop... We all know that! Why is that? It should really be called the "The Powerstroke Stop". All we discuss is the Powerstrokes(granted its my engine of choice over the rest so i am all happy with that). If we are called The "Diesel" Stop we should be exactly that... We should cater to all the crowds. Powerstrokes, Cummins, and Duramaxes. It seems this website is big ehough that i do believe if we gave people the option we would get the crowds. This is ofcourse y .02 worth.

OH i see said the blind man! that would make sense! Its a shame.... The big corporattion picking on the little guy... Anyway, its still a thought. I am for one not so biased on this or that such as brand name and such, as long as the owner of his/her diesel rig(or anything for that matter) is happy run with it! Thats why i proposed/pondered this. CANT WE ALL JUST BE ONE BIG HIGH POWERED BLACK SMOKING DIESEL WORLD? LOL

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

I am still here, some times I get to make a post, but most other times I just read whats going on.
Most people after a while get there trucks to a point and stop with the mods, other sell or just park there old trucks. Heck, after a while one can only do so much.

They should have paid highly for it. The Internet is not subject to eminent domain.
