    Just what the title says.. What is your guilty pleasure? I am a diesel guy.. LOVE LOVE LOVE compression ignition. I love going to sled pulls and diesel drags and big diesel events. Ive owned 5 diesels in the last 4 years. I am taking a short break from diesels but i will be back. I worked at a diesel performance shop in wisconsin from october 2010 till november 2011. In that year i built (with the help of a friend or two) my boss at the time a national point champion 3.0 class pulling truck. Here is a video of it from last season.

    Im with ya on the wrenching in anything.. I have always been a mechanic of some kind. Worked in a small local shop and in the body shop with my dad in high school, then took a job running and working in equipment but eventually got sick of traveling around and living in hotels. Then i went to work for MacAllister Cat. Its the state wide indiana cat dealer. I was there 2.5 years. I loved that job but it wasnt really workin out. Then i went to the diesel shop and now im at a dodge dealership.
