    A nice family mover though that is not boring like the traditional minivan.

    SweetCars.com - Makes sense to me!

    I cruised my Viper by the local used sports car lot to browse their inventory. They were closed. However, I noticed the 2008 Corvette and 2008 Carrera sitting on the asphalt out in the weather but the 2001 RT/10 is sitting center stage inside show room protected and caressed by the air...

    Can you drive your car places?

    The world has become so much more violent and disrespectful. There was no such thing when I was younger called road rage. People got upset with others, but I never recalled being flipped off or run off the road. Someone shot my 2011 Edge with a BB gun while I was driving. I realize the...

    Fast N Furious!

    Fast action, physics defying antics, a flurry of hot cars, and a pretty good plot. Yep I enjoyed every minute of it.

    This should be fun

    It was my high school car. Light Mauve with a white top. Cool color combo in those days. I was fighting off the Mustang and Camaro with basically a Valiant with a fast back. :cool:

    Busted on "Maiden Voyage"!

    :drive: Been there done that but not on the maiden voyage. It is humbling though. Two things the officer said to me that I will never forget. At the opening of the conversation he said "aren't you a little old to be doing this" And at handing me the ticket he said "nice car" :D

    What mods do you regret?

    A/C failed, engine overheated, the trans locked in 2 gear and would not shift. All unacceptable to the customer.

    2013 Viper

    LOL. I am planting a tree in my backyard to take care of my CO2 emission. I think every new Viper should come with a tree.:usa:

    What mods do you regret?

    I agree that some parts are simple swaps, like the exhaust. But for bigger mods the vehicle is a system tuned to work together. Having put a turbo on a non OEM turbo charged vehicle it is not as simple as swapping parts and being good to go. The engine electronic calibrations likely (I am...

    What mods do you regret?

    As an automotive engineer, I know the rigorous detail we go through to validate even the simplest change to a vehicle. So I cringe when I see others doing major engine modifications. Yep I am sure they run faster, but reliability is generally impaired some down the line. I think Corsa or...

    Mobile One Oil and Filter Sale

    Walmart sells the Mobil 1 for $24.50 for 5 quart jug which is the best deal I have found. Granted it does not include filter and don't know the value of included filter is at A-Z. As far as filter choice, this to me does not seem like it is worth fretting over. Like many I suspect, I put...

    Gasoline Prices Are Off The Hook

    Actually I enjoy filling up my Viper. Everyone seems to strike up a conversation about the car. Once I had a guy ask to shoot a picture while I am pumping gas. Sure why not. Vipers are worth the price of gas.

    Out of hibernation

    Sunny and mid 50's on Saturday. First time out this year. Spring Fever was over powering. What a rush. PS My little battery tender did just fine over the winter.

    Corvette owner moved after I moved to the street

    I heard someone say that some people buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like with money they don't have.

    Mobil 1 Sale Alert

    It was Mobil 1. I looked around and they even were lower that their brother store Sam's Club. It was the weight specified which I don't think it was 0W40. I guess what confuses me is why there is even a discussion on which oil to use. I just stick to OEM recommendations. They must have had...

    Japan Viper Club -- our prayers are with you !!!

    I know there are organizations that are solid in providing in these types of events. Food for the Hungry is one them and is one that I think is a good choice. I was just at their website and they are in Japan helping.

    Gilmour foamaster

    I have not taken the plunge on the Gilmour Foamaster....but have used a low cost alternative. I have used one of those lawn sprayers that attaches to a hose. I can dial the amount of solution. While it is likely not as good as Gilmour, it does I think do a pretty decent job of foaming foaming...
