Thanks, but no thanks.

You should keep in mind that except for the 3500, which has all kinds of stuff crammed into the back of the cab, I really only need one door. Preferably on the same side as the steering wheel.

Haven't got quite that far in life yet. Global warming may make me want to gain another 500 feet, though. And as far as TPMS goes, I use the factory TPMS sensors (color doesn't matter since they're in the tires) with readily available aftermarket black metal valve stems.

I'm plenty comfortable in the Challenger, thank you, and don't give a damn about if the creatures are or not. Score another one for the Challenger...less doors, less creatures invading the passenger compartment. My flying below the radar is based on color choice and a good radar detector. It's...

Score one for the Challenger then. If luxury is the goal, get a Bentley or Rolls. Not that I want mine to draw attention, on the contrary, but it's fairly self explanatory that people rather look at something attractive than a blah sedan. If people even notice a Charger, they probably think...

"Local" Taco Bell?? I'm sure they have those down where our revered weather guesser lives, but this is both an alligator and Taco Bell free zone.

Yeah, better than the current quattroporte, but that's not saying much.

I can do some math. That's why I know that an EV would not work for us. At all. Unless we had two of them, one being parked near the destination. More importantly, I also know that I'd most likely kill myself if stuck with an EV. Not saying that would be a bad thing (poll, anybody?). But...

I'd love to hear how that worked out in real life, even if it's half a decade from now. But I can certainly understand why something like a heads up display could be useful...when ones vision is obstructed by sand.

There, I fixed it for you.

I wouldn't doubt that. Cops and taxi drivers aren't always the slimmest.

Lots of ravens, some hawks, and the occasional eagle, show up to feast when I shoot prairie dogs. Heck, some have apparently learned to follow me around, expecting a meal. Doesn't work when the 'dogs fall back in the hole, but then either the other ones, and maybe the badgers, eat them.

Those guys are big. Probably about a 6-foot wing span. About a dozen of them have been circling an area on a neighboring property for two days now. Got curious and drove over to look. Turned out to be a deer, or possibly a small elk. Too much brush for the little Can-Am to get close enough to...

Did someone mention Ford? I'm hungry, and will eat just about anything.

My condolences.

I fully expected a visitor in a Furd today. There were several vultures circling and sitting around. With a bad back and knees, I can relate. That's why I rarely drive my Ram 3500 more than 1,300 miles in one sitting. Okay, technically at least two sittings, since I have to stop for fuel every...

It does pay to shop around. Took me a while to find an RS6 Avant (ordered) without ADM, but found a dealer in Arizona that would do it. An easy $15K to $30K off from what others wanted. But on the flip side, I've learned to no buy from AZ anymore. They wouldn't allow me to pick it up, had to be...

Define "driving distance", please. I've bought cars from Maryland to Idaho, and there wasn't single ferry or airplane involved.

As I understand it, it's a nicely done hand wash. It'd be a bit of a drive for you, though. And they're mostly used to 2-doors, with the occasional Macan or Cayenne being let in.

That one would, yes. She often leaves a car for service and gets a loaner to go to Costco in. And they would be nice enough to let her charge and take a loaner. It's a Mercedes/Audi/Porsche dealership, and she's bought enough Porsches and Audis to get preferential treatment. Even though most of...
