I never found out what EV you bought. Congrats!

 

Now that you mention that. Yeah, the red on a Mazda is quite nice.

 

Exactly. "rolling coal" literally means you're sending unburned fuel through the exhaust, because you injected more fuel than the engine can actually make use of. In addition to being absolutely horrible for the environment, it's just lighting money on fire for no reason.

Go ahead and tune your diesel for mad power, but please don't do this.

 

Is it bad for the trucks' engines?

 

Like a lot of things, it depends. It would be absolutely horrible for the engine if EGR was still enabled--like remove the heads and walnut blast the carbon deposits off every 2,000 miles horrible--but that (among other things) is usually deleted on trucks that are set up this way.

 

This, it's under no situation the ideal fueling map. Pure stupidity to roll coal and suicidal on a stock engine

 

I agree with the lighting money on fire. Lol

Because of my background, I have much different views on being horrible for anything other than that tho, and I will leave it at that. Lol

I didn't know it was bad for the engine.

It just lools cool to me.

 

I saw this Audi yesterday.

This doesn’t look so bad. Tasteful

 

The D5 looks much better in person than in pictures but I still hate the fake vents and light bar. The light bar is on EVERYTHING these days.

 

i shouldn't talk about it here on car chat.

but i am in ev chat.

 

Dual 750s, both engine outs. 2014 and 2016 with 140/47k miles. Yay!

 

great german engineering.

 

Dear god no. Not these lol!

 

I watch a bunch of mechanics on YouTube. They all hate working on these 750's. I think Car Wizard was the most recent one I watched.

​​​​​​Striker, would an E60 M5 with the notorious V10 be the ultimate "no no" BMW?

 

Yes, stay away.. It's basically a supercar engine in there, and they blow like clockwork from rod and/or bearing failure.

Scratch any BMW V8 off the list, too. BMW just can't make them, never have.

I-6, different story.
