^^^ Hahaha, That one was funny. Taking it out of context. Here it goes, You can look at what I've done to my truck, it isn't much so yes on the tow stage it smokes. Its fun to get on it and feel the pull. Looks like you have way more done to yours so maybe it doesn't smoke. Better tuner, twins, and actually tuned...yeah I think I will be there soon. Also, I don't smoke people out with my truck cause I dont want it egged nor keyed. That's what gets people hurt. :thumb:

It is a no BS place dude, if I post something wrong I get ripped on it, get over it and move on. Now you know how people feel about smoke, take it and move on and lets talk about something interesting.

You will actually find out this one of the better forums if not the best forum as forums go, If you really wanna get ripped on join COMP-D of course they love blowing smoke over there. There is a lot of good information here and very little BS, guys call it like they see and are pretty straight forward as you have probably already noticed, Welcome:hug:

Yes I have noticed which is why I have not left. Straight forward is good and its the way I am. Every time I googled a question about my truck this was the best detailed answer that I got from a forum.

I've learned to read first then ask/post. Your first actual post had no substance,doesn't help your overall goals for your truck. We all know smoke comes with the territory we just try our best not to exploit it. Hope you learn a lot about your rig.

COCO PUFF please post and help this guy!

Of course you are welcome here! We may come off as dicks but give it a few months, you'll be part of the family:thumb:

DuramaxForum is a train wreck. Read threads here then go back and read threads there. What you will find is uneducated/misinformed people attempting to school other uneducated/misinformed people looking for help. DuramaxDiesels is filled with shop owners, GM Techs, the best of the best Aliison builders, and smart people. Be humble and helpful and you will fit right in bud.

Oh and don't ever rip anyone off on this forum. We will eat your dog for breakfast and lock your grandmother in a closet. Seriously though, we take sales transactions serious around here. Money dont come easy in this world and well be damned if our members get screwed anymore.

Arneson is a great member and believe it or not he was trying to help you by getting you up to speed on Diesel performance dos and donts. We all smiled and giggled when our trucks were first tuned and commanded a lot of fuel (black smoke is end result). But as we get older and more responsible we realize its not cool to cover people at stoplights in smoke. It gives diesels and those involved in competitive diesel motorsports a bad name. We as a group want to be viewed as responsible people who respect the law. He wasn't trying to lecture you nor am I. We just want to help you understand the culture here on this forum. Some things just aren't cool. Again don't take it the wrong way, we want everyone to contribute/benefit from/enjoy the forum.

Oh and one more thing, DF shit don't fly over here. I mean that in the nicest possible way. Welcome to DuramaxDiesels!

Couldnt have said it much better than that ^^^. Also 100% agree with the "DF" comment. Jed, smoke isnt "cool" except maybe at the dragstrip and pulling track.
