      I saw my first ‘coal roller’ recently. Wtfffff. How is that legal? Such a spectacular display of myopic dickishness.

        Short answer, it’s not. It’s effectively legal because the circle Venn Diagram of those who would roll coal and have Punisher/Back the Blue stickers on their trucks and absolutely zero enforcement, but it’s TECHNICALLY illegal.

          I’m in NY, we have annual inspections and imo anyone doing this shouldn’t pass. The DMV has no fucks to give, let them see how far they get fighting them.

            Unfortunately a lot of the mods to make it happen are designed to not be noticed by the DMV inspectors. It’s a whole industry committed to industriously dumping as much soot into the atmosphere. If only that industriousness could be used for good; good doesn’t make as much money or “own the libs” as much as obnoxiously killing the Earth, I guess.

      Especially when they’re actually burning Diesel fuel… There’s no coal involved in it.
