Or those trucks are taking part in a "show" and visible smoke is so dramatic that it would be worth loosing a few horse power for the spectacle..... I know that my old 1989 VW 2.4 6 cylinder idi non turbo diesel with its huge 64hp on a good day goes slower in proportion to the amount of smoke it makes. Why not ask Jason on Engineering Explained.....

The question is NOT does rolling coal make you faster. It is why do morons do this on public roads and blow huge clouds of soot and smoke either into other drivers cars (like mothers with their kids in the cars) or just blow a huge cloud of smoke and soot other drivers have to drive through??? This is also a big problem when morons do this in residential neighborhoods. This is not only rude, obnoxious, and moron behavior.........it ruins ownership of diesel trucks and other vehicles for those who DO use them responsibly! 😡 Rolling coal off road or when no other people or drivers are around occasionally has it's time and place. Some diesel owners need to just grow up and show some consideration and respect for others around them. Not everything has to be in your face, hurray for me & piss on you, and being a showboat. And yes I own 2 modified diesel pickups.

I agree with that. I just made this to address comments where i kept getting saying it makes you slower or waste hp. If youre older than 10 or have to brain cells to rub together you should not purposely do this to other people. Fortunately most cops will not tolerate it.

I will admit tho if I'm on the interstate and there is someone going slow in the fast lane causing 10 people to pile up behind them i will provide a community service and smoke them out of the fast lane. This is usually met with many smiles and thumbs up of people who were stuck behind them. That's the only time I've done it on purpose to someone.

A diesel that isn't choked out with emissions crap is going to smoke a bit no matter what. The Prius community is always going to hate you for that. If you are intentionally loading up the engine to create more smoke then that might be a bit rude depending on the situation but then again, nobody complains about planes using smoke to draw stuff in the sky at air shows. Everyone likes fireworks and bbq's. Live and let live first, mind your own business second is my motto.
