    I Finally Pulled the Trigger!!!
    « on: June 02, 2012 - 06:21:17 PM »
    Well, after several years of seeing many of you enjoying your new Challengers I finally decided that it was time to trade in the Ram (only had 186,000 miles).  I think she's a beauty.

    Thanks.  I looked for this car for about 6 months.  I wanted a blue R/T with a 6-speed.  Tough to find in south Florida.

    I was't aware just how potent that engine is until Saturday evening.  I was taking my girl for a ride and while going down the highway at about 70-75 she asked what it would do.  So....... I dumped it in fourth and stepped on it,  about three seconds later we were doing 110!  Wow, that was fun!!!!  The probability of a State Trooper being around enhanced the message to the right foot to let up because the ride was smooth and the car wanted to go faster!

    Sounds like a plan.  Been there a few times before.  Brought my old '77 Aspen wagon the last time.  Hopefully Mother Nature will smile on us.

    Congrats.  Love the color.  Your girl may get jealous of how much time you spend in the car now.

     Congrats on your new Challenger  :cheers:
    Like everyone else; yes, that's a gorgeous blue
    I see on the front grill that she's an R/T; does that mean you have the 5.7L Hemi?
    It's a great engine, that's what I have in my Ram 1500.  If you want a bit more pep, take a look at Super Chips.
    I used the Super Chips on mine and it made a world of difference.  Now, the Rumble Bee really hauls.

    No can do on the 2011 and up Hemi's.  Chrysler locked em out.  No tuning available yet.   :pullinghair:
