Those noisy Dodge pickups

Here I am at the Black River Falls, WI Flying J which is one of my most frequently visited J's since it is on the way between Minneapolis and Goshen. I'm delivering a 26 Ft Dutchman to Little Falls, MN, but since its Sunday I can take my time as they won't receive it until Monday.

There is something about all but the newest Dodge pickups with the Cummings engines that really bothers me. Its the noise! When you are parked next to one and trying to sleep they are just as loud as any 18 wheeler idling. Most Ford Powerstrokes I can take and of course any Chevy Duramax is a welcome purr. Of course their owners like to keep them running because I sense its like a "Jeep Thing"; there must be a certain loyalty or sense of duty to keep polluting the air with noise.
