I thought it could be to better fight off alligators.

Those extra 3 hp over the Challenger sure gave it a big head.

Nothing has come off as far as I know. Except for the blue plastic film over the blower. But maybe they don't apply that anymore?

I watched The Holy Grail four times. The first time I laughed too much to catch it all, and the next three viewings were largely to see all the stuff going on in the perimeter.

Heard, as a kid in Europe, that Furd was checking the junkyards looking for parts that were still good on worn out cars. Then they could cut back on the quality of those parts.

No inheritance plans?

So don't sell it.

I think we all know the real reason it has to be a multi-door.

I suspect that you're just trying to hide the fact that you're yearning for a Tesla. Enough power, and lots of doors. What's there not to like?

Well hell, that takes the whole surprise out of it. What's wrong with going off what the photos in Build and Price shows, order the car, and then find out what it looks like in real life? There are two cars I bought in the past five years or so that I had seen up close ahead of time. One was...

I did talk to Hagerty and Grundy a few years ago. Where it got complicated is when they wanted to insure most or all of the other vehicles, too. Yes, I get that they want to know that I have something else to drive besides the "collector" vehicles, but not that they all but insisted that the...

Yeah, I stop the full insurance coverage (usually) on the 'Cat during the winter. Could probably do it more often, but don't want to hassle the insurance agent too much.

Yep, but (so far) the 'Cat costs less to insure than the GT AWD.

The Durango cost about 50% more than I had expected, and we have no tollways around here. Of course, it's a new policy, so not as many rate reducing factors in effect. I think it's like everything else, things have become expensive. For the insurance company to repair or replace a vehicle is...

Nooo... Don't you have something else you could sell?

Yep, the maintenance has become a bit overwhelming. It's one thing to deal with machinery that wants an oil change every 400 or 500 hours, compared to cars that insist on an oil change because a year has passed (Audi with 800 miles on it). During a typical summer I fill a 55 gallon drum with...

Okay, but in my mind it makes more sense to drive vehicles that I want to drive, like the Challengers and the 1500. And it's not only that I like to drive them, they kinda need to be driven every now and then. At this point the Durango has been sitting in the garage for three weeks, while...

And why does that not surprise me? You just want me to go out and begin the dreadful break-in driving instead of being able to drive 100+ in something else, don't you?

It's still at 18, just like when I picked it up. And best I can tell, that's where it'll stay for the foreseeable future. I have no reason to drive it, so I haven't. If that makes any sense.
