dieselpunk

Dieselpunk is an art style and subculture that blends the aesthetics / pop culture of the 1920s - 1950s with today. To dieselpunks, the "diesel era" was a time defined by warfare, Art Deco, pulp heroes, swing music, and noir gum shoes.

Its akind of like steampunk, except with internal combustion, because steampunk wasn't dirty enough.

Me and John saw a group of cosplayers in a steampunk show that didn't look victorian at all. They wore fedoras, goggles, ww2 gear and retro-futurist tech, but from a different timeline. Turns out they were dieselpunks

diesel punk 

Trustafarian types who spend hundreds of dollars on Diesel Jeans, $100 shoes, $75 haircuts, yet pretend to be punk, hardcore, whatever, merely paying lip service to the ideals behind the actual punk community. Can also be filed under hipster.

Generally a waste of time and space.

Known to like fake emo bands as can be seen on Fuse TV, or whatever else is hot this week.

No actual connection to the punk subculture.

Damian is such a diesel punk - he's just spent $40 to see that goddamn faker Dashboard Confessional.

DieselDukeJr

A certified diesel and heavy equipment mechanic with 12 years of heavy-duty experience, trained across Caterpillar, Cummins, Kubota, John Deere, Toyota, Hyster, and Yale equipment. A Diesel Duke is the type of technician who can go from diagnosing a car one day to troubleshooting an overhead crane the next — and still make sense of the electrical, hydraulic, mechanical, and diagnostic mess that scared everyone else away.

Diesel Duke started turning wrenches in 2005 and officially stepped into the heavy-duty mechanic world in 2014, building a reputation around field service, diagnostics, corrective repair, and equipment that actually makes money when it runs. His strongest lanes are heavy agricultural equipment and material handling equipment, including forklifts, telehandlers, skid steers, compact construction equipment, generators, pumps, compressors, and diesel-powered machines that do not care about anyone’s feelings.

A Diesel Duke is not just a “mobile mechanic.” He is the guy you call when the parts cannon failed, the codes lied, the wiring diagram got ignored, and three other people already said, “I don’t know.” Known for sharp diagnostics, brand knowledge, and the ability to work across multiple equipment families, Diesel Duke brings dealership-level thinking with field-service practicality.

“Don’t guess at it again. Call DieselDukejr — he’s certified on Cat, Cummins, Kubota, John Deere, Toyota, Hyster, and Yale, and he actually knows material handling equipment.”
