Welcome to the IHoP v.2

I have found the vehicle for you. Found it in a parking lot today.

I'm still liking the SRT8 JGC option

[Penguin4x4 1,761]

especially with that new 8 speed

especially with that new 8 speed

I don't think that one will only be $45k come December though. Have to be the stupid 5 speed.

[///M5 2,833]

I'm going to ask and beg...but don't think I'll get another $15k out of my boss.

[///M5 2,833]

Come ON!! It's only 5k a year!

[///M5 2,833]

Which also means first model year and a mopar. Fucking scary

[///M5 2,833]

At least the chassis wasn't new at the same time though.

[///M5 2,833]

And we worked on the body, so I know the structural post production fixes. Just not the mechanical.

Call Bill at woodhouse dodge for a price on a citadel and get Mark to throw a Paxton, some eibachs, and stop techs on it

Coming from a ML, the sequoia drives like a truck.

Standard ML drives like shit too. AMG on the other hand :)J, if you want to understand go drive an ML63.

I may have some free time to go to Tucson this weekend. Might just do that. Would really help me know where you are coming from.

  

And J, I excluded ALL pickup trucks. I have no need for a bed and it takes up a ton of space. The length ruins how they all drive.Exception could be a Sport Trac Adrenalin, but I don't think I can handle the interior or NVH after yesterdays drives.

Didn't realize that. Hope you find something good soon.

Buried my bike tonight. Poor girl is covered in mud. Had some real fun, but found out I cannot cross the stream where I had hoped to.

[sandt38 448]

Thank God I got the nice skid, I needed it tonight.

J, the Bach party is the weekend of the 12th so I have about a week and a half to get order the cigars.

We would be having them with whiskey, probably well after some steaks. I prefer a fatter cigar because I think it looks cool. Don't know on the burn time so I say middle of the road. Budget... No idea $7 per cigar looking for 6 total?

More or less what I was going to do to the TBSS or Caddy. Having a hard time swallowing a Chrysler. Although I had a shit experience with a GM, I feel way safer making that gamble than a Chrysler. That being said, if the new explorer had a Coyote it'd be a no brainer.

No it wouldn't, you'd not be able to stand the interior.  Material wise, it's a twin to the previous gen Explorer.   

 

 

I don't know what the MKT tows, but it's the Explorer with the EcoBoost V6 and Lincon "luxury", so there is your power you want.  I see 2010-11s around $30-35K.

I am the worst Chrysler critic, but when it comes to Jeeps, I think they've not done as much damage there.  Everyone I know that owns or has owned one has loved them.  Two of the guys at work have GCs, and the plant manager has some special edition GC.  He was talking about putting a blower on it, but I don't know if he ever did.

Get a program car for the weekend and drive it around. It's the same chassis that you have now. It ain't like you are gonna keep it forever if it breaks it'll be under warrantee.

Plus a vortech can easily go back to stock and resale values on them aren't bad.

Even with a Livernois tune I doubt its enough power. The interior I like though.

Materials may be similar in the new X, but the layout is WAY better.

Warranty on a supercharged, brake kit'd, modded suspension car? I guess the non-drivetrain stuff would be covered, lol

Ha, just priced a new Citadel. $60 more per month on a 12,000mi lease than my ML is on a 15,000mi. YAY Dodge!
