Pickup trucks customized to spew black smoke into the air are quickly becoming the newest weapon in the culture wars.
"Coal Rollers" are diesel trucks modified with chimneys and equipment that can force extra fuel into the engine causing dark black smoke to pour out of the chimney stacks. These modifications are not new, but as Slate's Dave Weigel pointed out on Thursday, "rolling coal" has begun to take on a political dimension with pickup drivers increasingly viewing their smokestacks as a form of protest against environmentalists and Obama administration emissions regulations.
Last month, Vocativ noted many coal rollers focus their fumes on "nature nuffies," or people who drive hybrids, and "rice burners," or Japanese-made cars.

Holy cow, that lady NEEDED a car full of black exhaust.
The collectivists push and the rednecks push back. Back and forth, back and forth until one day the collectivists push one too many times.
Most of them around here are well worn Dodges. This is Illinois corn central so lots of used heavy duty trucks. Got behind one the other day with a 12” stack in the middle front of the bed.
OH Yeah!
Just go to YouTube and search for coal rolling... There are some really, really funny videos there! And as a bonus, you get to read the squealing comments from the nancy boys, makes your heart go pitty-pat! Not all men drive diesel trucks, but all diesel trucks are driven by men.
Yeah, that's right! Then those people, including Prius people, will whine like a puppy then sneak up in the middle of the night and throw a rock through the truck window then run. If they are not caught they brag to the other nancy boys how they got back at that mean nasty diesel truck driver. If they are caught, well, those beat-up creatures dropped off at the Emergency Room are not the truck drivers, I garand-damn-tee you that.
I feel your pain. I ride a bike, a lot, because it is really fun and in the city, faster than a car. But I am really careful, you know why? Because there are many, probably 99 out of a hundred, bike drivers who were dressed funny by their mothers. They are rude, condescending, rabid, anti-social misfits who deserved every bit of dirty exhaust they get. If I had a diesel truck I would coal roll those retards too. So sorry, you and I are just collateral damage. The US is the only country I know where bike riders have a justified bad name.

There must be a better way.
You know, I used to think that way. I don't care any more. These are the people that steal elections, have a degree in journalism and lie to the public, and irrationally hate the constitution. They are not my people. I admire those bitter clingers with smokey pickups.
great idea.
If you pour a tiny bit of Kerosene in the middle of a tire and light it the tire burns black smoke for a very long time.
We use them to start bonfires sometimes.
And using kerosene prevents accidental flash burns.
They'll Twit about it on their way home and then do a status update on their Facebook page.
Then whine like a puggy when they're arrested.
