    No Need for Words!

    Sorry to hear about your horrible day. I would think that the Jeep that hit you stopped too close behind you in the first place so their insurance should cover you. Best of luck to get rolling ASAP.

    making some progress on the viper! 56k no way

    Amazing what a little elbow grease will do. You never said what year the GTS was and who will be installing the turbos.

    Dealers want Cash Only

    Dealers are fighting for their lives in this economy. Tator's was almost shut down by Cerberus after decades of showing a profit and thank goodness it wasn't. Anybody that thinks they are getting a good trade in value is dreaming. Profit margins for used cars have always been the cash cow...

    The new Blue Batmobile revealed (PICS)

    I like the matte black finish. Reminds me of a the color hood you may see on a lift off hood on a Roadrunner from the late 60's. One of the best custom painted Vipers I have seen.

    Chrysler & GM granted $17.4B in loans

    I saw a Hyundai Tiberon with decals that made it look like it had Ferrari side vents that would be more his style. :rolaugh::lmao:

    Where is this economy going?

    I knew my Viper would depreciate after I bought it and would depreciate with every mile I drive it. I don't really think about it when the experience of driving it is truly priceless. I also wish I had more money and a bigger garage to fully take advantage of buying opportunities in this...

    Foxnews says "Chrysler shuts down Friday for a month..

    In addition to your statement, union labor take home isn't as much as many think after we are hit with 33% or higher taxes. You were smart to take the severence package. I am still amazed that there is so much animosity against unions from the rich. Most of these guy's that critcize unions...

    Foxnews says "Chrysler shuts down Friday for a month..

    I agree that it is not classy to judge how much others make if that pay is what the market can afford. At the time of the last UAW contracts, the big three could afford whatever wages were and still have profit. There are a lot of stockholders on this site that would love to see unions get...

    Would you buy this car

    That is what happens when you try to get too much of a dealer markup.

    Financing options in today's market?

    I only suggested the HELOC because Bernacke said rates would be kept low for a long while. Rates will go up again so the amount you transfer to it should be limited to how much you can pay off before rates return up. Remember that the lower HELOC rates offered are VARIABLE.

    Financing options in today's market?

    One last suggestion I have for using the HELOC is to use it to take a chunk out of your mortgage or if possible pay it off. I used my HELOC to pay off the rest of my mortgage off 6 yrs ago. It was worth it because it was not only a much lower interest rate than my mortgage but I also got my...

    Financing options in today's market?

    A Home equity line of credit (HELOC) is by far the best way I know to get a Viper. Rates are variable but are fixed for me at prime rate minus 1/4. Currently rates for me are at 3% and interest is tax deductible. I pay interest only for the term of the contract and then it turns into a mortgage...

    Did you buy brand new for your first Viper?

    Haven't bought a new car yet. There was plenty of warranty left on the 2000 RT/10 when I got it. However, if I was shopping for my 1st Viper today, the deals on brand new ones are very interesting especially if color is not important.

    Ok, I get it. Changed my mind on runflats.

    My C5 had runflats. Time came to get new rears and ended up with regular and much cheaper rubber on all 4 wheels just to get rid of the poor ride quality of the runflats. The C5 rides and handles much nicer even though I got lesser performance rated tires.

    My Viper was STOLEN.

    I am really glad Miller was caught especially since he broke into your home. Now that gives extra charges the DA can place on him in addition to car theft. I hope he has a record already so he gets less lenient sentencing. Good luck with the insurance.

    Congrats on the beautiful GTS.

    MY 08 available for mid 60s

    Very tempting price. Too bad I am married or would scoop it up asap!

    acr stripe on a 08 vert

    My opinion is for no stripe. Getting the conventional dual black stripes while already in the paint booth would be a better idea.

    Streetracing....why?

    Chad, The good old days of streetracing were in the 60's and 70's when cops would actually let drunk drivers go with just a warning. If people make you feel like a loser because you don't race, remember that you don't want to end up like Nick Hogan or worse. Smart people realize that they have...

    crazy it still hasn't sold!

    Have you really been through an average of 4.1176 cars per year? (70 cars/17yrs) That is pretty impressive. I wish you luck on getting the right buyer in this tough market. If I may make a suggestion, you should cut back on your new car addiction if the sales process is starting to bother you.

    quality of domestics during these times

    To base your evaluation of build quality of all American vehicles based on 1 blown tail light bulb is just silly. :lmao::rolaugh:

    quality of domestics during these times

    I am offended at this post because my best friend works at the Bowling Green Corvette plant but still, you won't catch me dead sitting in a Hyundai, Kia, or Suzuki who BTW should stick to making motorcycles. I am also offended at this post because I am a UPS Teamster myself and take offense to...

    quality of domestics during these times

    This is a typical question asked by people that have always worked behind a desk.:hitwithrock: In reality, workers at GM put together outsourced parts from emerging countries. If those parts break, it looks bad for GM. In reality, GM workers are worried about keeping their jobs and reitrees are...
