I really like the look of this retro, but, and a big "but:"

I hate the Chrysler build quality. I have a company Dodge Magnum and it is a real turd. Terrible brakes, terrible turning radius, terrible gas mileage, and pretty cheap feel in general. Dealers always claim that there is nothing wrong with the car, no matter how bad the symptoms.

I guess this is not that different from European cars, but at least those are more enjoyable to drive and maintain......;)

I sure hope the new Challenger is as good as the old ones, I was driving a 73 when I met my wife ...:D

Just a test drive...that's all. May or may not buy it...

Hey Slow,
Nice right up......... you deserve to have your Pcar in the stable!
Make it your goal; get a poster, a die cast model and commit it to paper;
"I'm gonna own this car ........_________...... on this date......________."

Wish, Want, Need, Got.
You'll have your car back in the stable when you "Need" it! Which I'd say from reading your story is not far from now.

As for PWD, it's hopeless for you man. Hopeless. I can see a truck or SUV in your future; ha ha ha!

Good Luck Slow,
My first Porsche was a 944 following several Nissan Zcars.

After having my doors slammed so many times I now open and close the door for anybody not used to Porsches. This happens to always be men since the only woman who rides with me is my wife and she knows how to close the door. Talk about looking gay. (Not that there is anything wrong with it :) ) Opening and closing a door for a dude. LOL

Keep up the good work at school so it pays off big.

Speedy:)

Giddyup! Yes, that IS a gun rack in the back window...and Rob, if you ever ride in my truck? Slam the door...it might not close otherwise. This old '77 Dodge power wagon has been over roads Cayenne owners would fear to tread...well, not "roads" exactly...;) It squeaks, it rattles, it rides very rough.
But it hauls firewood and other heavy loads, like field dressed Elk, very well...:D

What do you mean "if"?
I can't wait!

That's my kinda truck! A work truck.
