    Apparently living in a different universe, my version of the Challenger would have either the '70 or the current body. I'm fine with either one. But it would have the '70's interior, completely void of all the tech nonsense and nannies. More of a driver's car and less of a video game arcade.

    You're saying that I should put the badges back on, but with Velcro, and then keep track of what weekday it is when I'm driving? I had planned to give them to DGatzby, so his Durango would get some extra get up and go.

    Meanwhile, I'd gladly pay extra not to have all that fancy tech and a large hole in the roof. And just like with the Challenger, Trackhawk, and now the Durango, had it been obvious that they have the 6.2 I wouldn't have wanted one. Peel off a couple of badges and they look much like the V6...

    I can't say that leaving CA was the best decision of my life. Moving to the USA was. But leaving CA is a close second. Anyway, I need to check if I have photos of those cars. One was a Darracq. And it was far from a palatial setting. Most were crammed into a small old wooden barn. Heck, even...

    What hit him the hardest initially was all the animals that didn't make it, including quite a few exotics. Then, I'm sure, that most everything he'd worked for all his life (except for companies in other locations) was just gone. Buildings, orchards, vineyard, cars, all of it. And that many...

    Oh, it cost him a few mil alright. As an aside, today I heard my girlfriend mention to someone on the phone that the Aston Martin she sold him came with a lifetime Sirius subscription. Obviously peanuts in the scheme of things, but still ironic. Well, at least that was must've been insured...

    As I recall, like most of his cars, it wasn't even insured. Two of them were the only ones left in the world. And compared to everything else lost (the entire ranch, basically) the cars were not at the top of his list to worry about. He since left SoCal for Texas. We tried to get him to move...

    If there's no more in the shaker, may I offer up that my girlfriend's boss' one burned up in a fire in California?

    I'm sure that debate was going on long before I joined in, but I do like to add fuel to the fire. And some take it well. You and DavidKFla, for example. Some others, maybe not so much, but that's okay. I'm not here to win any popularity contests.

    Well put, 4pac. But it's a good thing we're all different, or it'd be quite boring. Besides, I find many of the (to me) unreasonable posts entertaining.

    2020 Hellcat having confusing battery issue please advise.

    Wasn't a quality deep cycle AGM battery, was it?

    I dunno. It may be a tie between the Durango and TRX. I thought some in the regular Charger/Challenger crowd had some odd entitlement thoughts, but they're not in the same league.

    You're right. Ferrari owners are different.

    They probably also wouldn't send angry emails to the equivalent of Tim about missing cat skulls on the seatbacks, for example. Surely a Durango can't be as quick with only SRT on the seats.

    Ironically, I'm having a hell of a time convincing a guy with a Ram that those battery blankets are there to keep the batteries from getting overly hot. Not to keep them from getting cold.

    Are you saying that they're willing to wait a year or two for an ordered car, for example?

    Hmm. My '18 is still on it's original battery. Maybe it's because there are no alligators gnawing on it? Or, it could be lack-of-heat related.

    Now I don't remember if it's been brought up already, but if not, I'd put a battery maintainer or charger on the car and let it do its thing for a few days. Seems like some have had their battery go bad early, and then all kinds of wonky things can happen.

    I drive mine sparingly, too, but when I do it's worth the $30 or so per month for the three cars, the 3500, and the tractor.

    On music channels?? Never mind. I now see that they have an NPR channel.
