    #277 goes out for a drive! (pics and review)

    You mention valve noise. I sure noticed it -- much louder than my GTS. I thought for a while that there was no oil in the engine! Also, at low speed I can hear a cluck, cluck, cluck coming from the rear of the car. Sort of sounds like a rock in the tire, but too deep a tone for that. Must...

    There IS a cupholder!!

    In reading the manual, page 52, under Console Features, it says, "The front console has a removable ashtray in the cup holder---. Oh well, sellin' it now! NOT!

    Can the seats be lowered in the SRT-10?

    I don't know, but had a 6'-8" young man sit in my car yesterday, and there was NO WAY even his legs would fit. He was looking through the top windshield frame or OVER it. He couldn't even get his other leg in. I then looked under the seat, and there appears to be a lot of room to lower the...

    #277 ARRIVES! (plenty o' pics & commentary)

    Re: #277 ARRIVES! (plenty o\' pics & commentary) I have one small comment to add to Chris's, and that is: All the colors are fantastic. I would look at the red and say, hmmm, that's the best, then the silver and another hmmm. But the black is the most sinister of the group. It is downright...

    #253 Arrives in Denver (broken in an ready to go)

    Mike, just after you left, we were all worried you might get stopped along your journey because we noticed that your "in transit" stickers were left at the Parts counter. Glad to hear you didn't have a problem ----- or did you??? Nice meeting you.

    Driveway problem??

    I took two bags of Sacrete, did nothing to the underlying surface, plopped it down, tapered it, covered it with plastic for a couple days, drove on it for two years, and it is still there. I fully expect it to depart in a year or two, but 30 minutes later, there will be a new Sacrete ramp.

    CURSE YOU, Old Man Winter!

    Double dang!! Mr. P called me too. If the snow would have just waited one stinking day. But, nooooo. So, I prayed that the car fairy would deliver it while I slept, but nooooooo. Sigh. PS: High of 49 Sunday! Good melting weather.

    Stein, I'm referring to Dodge being out front with the BIG RIG look that Ford flat ripped off some years back in it's 3/4 ton and larger trucks. So, what does Dodge do but try a separation from Ford by a more exaggerated Big Rig look for it's latest design. I wasn't really talking about the...

    Zone Director Sells First SRT

    Hey, there is nothing you can do about it. If he did an immoral thing, then God, the Devil, the Karma accountant, Mother Nature, or Something will pay him back. And, it is only $20K, hardly a lifestyle changing amount (now, if it was $20M, well ---). If he was a bad boy, he'll more than...

    New Info on Ram SRT-10 - HEMI V10 Coming?

    V10 Hemi!! Now that will excite future Viper Coupe admirers. And a measly 600+ HP. This could get good. I wonder if the V10 Hemi will be the result of adding two cylinders to the V8 Hemi, and displace 7.2 Liters?

    Recommended car transporters?

    The Reliable driver I had ship from VOI was NOT good. They didn't use the lift-gate type truck, and it was all I could do to keep the jerk from folding the ramps up into the bottom of my car, plus bottom out the car. His wife had to leave and sit in the car because he treated her like an *** ...

    Who will be the first to take delivery of SRT-10?

    Concerining cross drilled rotors, those were for show only. I read that production would have solid.

    Heat Problem Resolved?

    Yes, this is what we understand. Reports in from the first precincts indicate that the car is much cooler. (Maybe that was Florida though?)

    FIRST IMPRESSIONS of SRT/10

    Interesting. I have always wondered about how accurate dynos are, and since I know little about them, wanted to find out how accurate they are and how reliable they are over time. Went to the DynoJet web page and pulled this off: "Automatic measurement of the barometric pressure and ambient...

    FIRST IMPRESSIONS of SRT/10

    Devildog, read down a bit and see that he drove it 500 break-in miles, then he was "on his own." That probably meant that he "used" it a bit. I'll bet it doesn't hurt anything, but why all the expert advice for past motors? Maybe the manual says 500 now and the experts agree.

    Who thinks the SRT 10 will have 1st year problems?

    Since the subject of clown shoe vs. daffy duck, and the emotional proponents for both, won't go away for some time, I suggest we set up two forums, one for each, and neither proponent needs to visit the other site because it is just too upsetting to do so. In order to accomplish this effort...
