Can\'t stop smiling
I got my first Viper a week ago and only got to drive it 1 day before I spent a week away on vacation. I couldn't stop thinking about the car the whole time I was gone. I got back yesterday and got to drive it today after I installed a new battery. I had to call the previous owner after a brief game of "find the battery" to learn the location. He told me to remove the rear driver's wheel and remove the panel that does a really good job of hiding dead batteries. The car had to be pushed onto a stack of progressivly taller lumber so the jack would fit under the car. To make a short story long, everything went fine and I had the time of my life driving afterwards. I couldn't quit smiling, and I was in such a great mood. Is this a common side effect of driving a Viper? The original owner of the car was Janni Cone, so you may be familiar with the paint scheme(if not, it's very "P8TRIOTic") . As I drove the car today I noticed a few military retirees that smiled when they saw it, or nodded positively as it went by. It amazes me the effect that a car can have on people. Dodge made a truly incredible car!
