Why do diesel pickups still stink so much? I thought that problem was supposed to be solved.

It's the drivers :)

As much as mazdamia's comment was supposed to be snarky, it has merit in many cases. It's popular sport here in PickupLand to modify diesel pickups so they dump more fuel than designed, creating big stinking sooty clouds along with a little more power and a lot more noise. This is often accompanied with the installation of truckNuts.

Well being among those in crazy diesel tuning land my truck smelled like propane when it was stock reprogrammed the computer and did some exhaust work and now it smells like a old diesel and blows black smoke like a big rig but boy does it go like a bat out of hell.

Thanks for the carcinogenic particulates, HotRodz.

Aren't we all guilty here? Does anyone here ride a bicycle everywhere unless there is an emergency? I'm treading carefully here but doesn't picking on HotRod automatically contain a wee bit of hypocrisy?
With that said, I'd still like to re-channel the exhaust of every old smelly diesel back into the cabin so the person who dealt it can "smell-t" it. Sort of speak!

Nice use of literary imagery, HotRodz. I give you an A+
LOL
But I gotta ding your grade down for killing my children's children's environment. :D So... B-
