    Best car insurance company?

    That was the impression I was always under. In the past when I've received phone calls about swapping insurance I usually just tell them I have USAA and they back down. After doing some research they might not be as good as their reputation.

    Best car insurance company?

    So far statefarm wanted $170 and progressive wanted $211. Looks like Geico is the best so far. Surprised at how much the price fluctuates company to company for identical coverage.

    New owner would have wrecked?

    Had 2 of those moments so far. The first 1 was within a half mile from the dealership. During the test drive I felt pretty comfortable with the car just driving around the town. Leaving the dealership I went to go onto the highway for the first time and while going up the ramp I saw there...

    Best car insurance company?

    Tried using the search button, but some reason my work's filter blocks it. Currently I'm using USAA and paying $240 a month for my 06 Viper and 02 Mustang, just got a quote off the Geico site and apparently I can get the same coverage for $140 a month. Wondering if there is anywhere to get...

    Looks really good. Have you considered adding color to the steering wheel?

    another dumb question, or two.......

    Yes, I think it was $60 - $80 or so for the plug in to eliminate the skip shift.

    How to get a test drive?

    I've wanted a Viper since the 90s but never saw 1 up close. A co worker bought a C5 and was trying to convince me into getting a Vette instead of a Viper. It was tempting, and by looking Just at the vette I almost gave in. Once I finally got to take a look at a Viper ( the 1 I bought ) the...

    Question: RB4 Nav Unit in a RB1 Equipped SRT 10?

    I'm pretty sure RB1 isn't a 6 disc though. I've seen the swap before, so it is doable.

    How to get a test drive?

    Proving you have the money helps. I bought mine last year when I was 25, they wouldn't let me test drive it until I proved I had the money to cover the down payment I promised, along with proof from the bank that I was accepted for the loan for the remaining balance. From a private seller...

    In dash cd changer

    I do not believe so, because of the shape of our headunit. The only options I have seen were flip ups or having to modify the area to fit a double DIN.

    The Viper can take a hit, that's for sure...

    Should get a decent amount - make them factor in the amount you lose through resale with having an accident on the history.

    Poor Customer Service From "The Viper Store"....

    lol wouldn't doubt it. Sucks that your ride broke, where are you heading to?

    In dash cd changer

    Looking to replace it or put in an RB1? I got an RB1 and it is a pretty nice unit, and keeps the stock look. Only 2 downfalls - no aux input and need to keep nav DVD in when using GPS, so you'll need a CD changer.

    Poor Customer Service From "The Viper Store"....

    I bet based on their terrible delivery times that they don't have any product actually in stock. When you buy it off them they probably buy it at another vendor, then resend it out and take in the profit. Pretty much a middle man site.

    How much did it cost to fix?

    In dash cd changer

    Ya instructions are exactly spot on. You press the load button and it should show something like 1-6 with indication of whawt has a CD in and what doesn't, and then you hit the number and it cycles ( can hear it easily ) and it says LOAD, then you put in the CD. If you hit a button that has a...

    RB1 install question?

    Old thread. But ya the RB1 is pretty decent. Has 2 downfalls though. For one you need to have the navigation DVD in in order to use the GPS, and it doesn't come with an aux in the front like pretty much any modern head unit. Nothing a 6 disc changer and ipod add on cable doesn't solve.

    Viper, one of the most dangerous cars to drive?

    I believe there should be a special certification needed on a driver's license for driving a car with more than 400 or 500 horse power. Just because you can drive a 4 banger with 135 horses doesn't mean you are qualified to drive a V10 with 500 IMHO.

    Car shows in general....

    It varies people to people. What I seemed to notice is, if the person is driving a Corvette because he loves Corvettes - there is no issue with having a Viper around them. I've had waves while driving and greeted at events from these kinds of people. But if the person is driving a...

    Poor Customer Service From "The Viper Store"....

    Their prices are also on the high end I noticed. They charge the most Viper tax I've seen so far. $370 for a K&N cold air when you can get them for $250 almost any where else.

    New additions to the Viper

    I was afraid to do black wheels on my FE, but this changed my mind. That looks amazing, I think the tint is what makes it match so well though.

    Running the "BIG " end

    I hit about 180 with just eibach lowering springs. It felt pretty stable.

    Will this work on an 06?

    It should have preloaded tunes for your year Viper. But every car I've had in the past this has been 1 of the first things needed. $150 is a pretty good price, but keep in mind it'll cost another $300-500 to get it actually tuned to get the most out of it. Going to get all the parts I plan on...

    Cut on a tire, how safe is it?

    Just be sure if they try to replace that 1 tire, that the tread on the other tire on that axle has similiar tread wear. Hard to tell how much tread is there from the picture's angle, but if 1 is at 20% and they put 1 with 100%, it is going to cause issues.
