    Hood rubbing against front fascia, anyone know how to make adjustment?

    Took the viper out for a quick ride today and noticed the paint wearing where the hood meets the front fascia over the left-front tire. See picture... As you can see the gap is wider in the front than in the rear. I am not sure what would have made the hood/fascia shift (perhaps auto-x...

    Extended Warrantees (What one to get?)

    My warrantee is up later this month and was wondering if it was worth it to get the "top of the line" extended warrantee. As, the viper does not have that many "bell and whistles" that could break. (no power mirrors, stuff like that...) Should I get the basic powertrain warrantee, get the "top...

    Any luck with taking your viper for service in the Bucks County, PA or Trenton, NJ area?

    I live in Bucks County outside of Philly, has anyone taken their viper for service around here? I know about Barbera's, is their any place good closer to me? Dealers in the Trenton area would also be closer than Barbera's in Philly. I need to get a check engine light diagnosed. (It's still...

    Directional tires and regular-tire problems?

    JMcGuire, Uneven tire wear, such as cupping, is not caused by improper rotation of the tires, it is caused by the vehicle itself. Vehicles that are out of alignment will cause the tires to cup. Some vehicles, especially light trucks and SUV's will wear tires unevenly even when aligned...

    Diablo VT question...

    Yup, The VT and the Viper are a good match. Up close the VT isn't that impressive (I don't like it's handmade look). The new Diablo 6.0, on the other-hand, would smoke a stock viper. That is one hell of a machine. -Sean
