    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    why?

    ^^ lolo!
    Ok here's a helpful tip!
    If leaving the engine turned off for a period of time is an issue, don't wait till the tank is empty to re-fill. Fill when half empty instead hehe!

    Not sure how i'm sitting here typing this, but somehow I managed to fuel up while the engine was running and didn't blow myself up, or the gas station and all the helpless bystanders around me. even better, some thug didn't jump in the drivers seat 3 feet away from me and throw it in drive and take off. with all this luck, I should go buy a lottery ticket!

    on a side note, the truck didn't throw any codes, which goes back to my original question.

    The horror!

    I suggest you mix a very strong drink...maybe two.

    Weather you have a hangover or not, you must go to church tomorrow and light a candle.

    I'm praying for you brother.

    I've seen this argument on another forum and just don't get it. Idling at the pump just isn't a thing here.

    You haven't lived until you try it.

    The anxiety, the worry, the nail biting.

    It's cool though
