I just came across this video on streetfire.....I realize that lly's overheat, but I never dreamed it would be this bad. Not to count this idiot behind the wheel not stopping and at least doing something about it, or even letting the truck cool off. I just cant believe that someone would keep driving arrogantly just to prove a point. :nunu: And the idiot wonders why it went into limp mode.....http://videos.streetfire.net/category/Trucks^^Offroad/1/b108e8c2-25df-4054-8090-98af013f4333.htm

Ok, thats funny, and what you said is true, but not if you take into account the entire point of the video was to show in court that the truck will overheat if worked hard. If you slow down, or let off, or stop, it won't overheat, and you will not win your overheat case. Make sense?

Also, I didn't wonder why it went into limp mode, I knew exactly why. I was very low on fuel and was done video'ing already. But as I crested the hill right before that, it limped, so I grabbed the camera, played it to the hilt, and added it to the overheat video especially since it also allowed me to get in conversation with another Dmax owner talking about problems with his truck. Since I was so low on fuel it likely briefly uncovered the fuel pickup and threw the 1093. It wasn't because of the overheating or the fuel temp or anything else. But it was useful for painting a picture of a POS truck for a judge. :Thumbup:

If you still don't want to believe that someone would keep driving arrogantly to prove a point, I have over 30,000+ excellent reasons why. LOL

I was just figuring that it was some dumb*** on streetfire blowing his mouth off....LOL Now that I know the whole story I understand your point exactly....:Thumbup: Good victory!!:usflag
