So...there I was, paying my buddy's boss man for swapping some tires around. There's a guy sitting in the office and he asks me: "So didn't that truck originally have the 6.2 Cummins in it with a turbo 400 transmission?"
It took me a minute to process that much stupidity at once, but I simply informed him that it was a Detroit, made entirely by GM and was a naturally aspirated engine. He replies with a "Pfftt....yeah, ok." It truely frightened me that he was allowed to work on fleet trucks for a local beverage distributor.
It was one of those things that instantly tripped my anger switch for whatever reason. Especially after he brags about knowing all things diesel. Sigh....
I didn't want to go off on him because I'm friends with the store manager and my friend works there, so I just let it slide, but it still boils my blood.
Those of you who remember me know that my truck does, indeed, have a Cummins 6BT in it. I really liked how he was telling me what motor was in MY truck.
Anyway, I thought yall could go for a good laugh! Since I haven't posted in a loooong time, I thought I would share
Sadly, this is entirely true.
