    That sucks. Thieves and liars are two things I just can't stand. You should go hang out around the local truck stops and you'll probably get the chance to buy your stuff back.

    You'll enjoy the Challenger, one of the most trouble free comfortable cars we've ever owned.

    I had a Chrysler 300 with the pentstar v6, I purposely tried my best and got high 30's once on a trip to Ontario. That is a great motor, lots of giddyup when you need it, and very fuel efficient.
     
    JoeyJunk, blairandgretchen and Oxbow Thank this.

    I’ve driven that Hellcat- it’s stupid. On the higher HP mode, 1/16” of throttle movement breaks the tires loose. A friend of mine had a midlife crisis and made the purchase. Nice car, but I much preferred the one he traded for it. A Cadillac CTS-V.
    Very nice ride Blair- much deserved.

    That is ridiculous power. It’s all good fun, but after wrecking the 2006 Corvette years ago, with a mere 400hp, I realized I’m not a race car driver and 300 horsies is plenty.

    Well they won’t be selling tarps to me. While I was busy doing 9 rounds from SD to Ohio some meth head cut the catalytic converter out of my crv parked in my driveway. Got some good pictures, police are looking, had one stolen from a city truck.

    Wow, that's nuts. That has to have made a lot of noise or something.
