Diesels Rolling Coal on PEOPLE 2014 Compilation

After seeing this article, disapproving of folks rolling coal, I figured I had to post this video.

Honestly, I don't see what the big deal is. It's only a small number of folks who have modified their diesel trucks this way with smoke switches or aggressive tunes, and typically rolling coal is only a very small portion of the time the vehicle is operating (e.g. when the smoke switch is activated). The effect may be dramatic, and cover things with soot, but environmental impact in grand scheme of things is zero.

Should have bought a diesel truck. Except diesels are expensive, more difficult to maintain, and but an more expensive fuel that is harder to get especially in rural areas.

Bill Rosa’s Cabin is Getting Real Neat

He certainly now has all of the toys in his off-the-grid cabin. I am just so jealous of how he lives. I've been watching his Youtube videos for quite a while now.

All I can say is wow. He really has turned his bear-bones cabin in Oklahoma into something pretty impressive without being a complete greeny-crazy. I wish I lived his life. Maybe some day, not too far in the future, I will leave my run-down apartment for a real place in the woods.

See more on his Facebook Page and Youtube Page.
