    $25 barrel oil damn $1.25 gas is here and or less!

    Jealousy will get you nowhere. But 2.27 is kinda high for here. Did you have to pay the Texan surcharge?

    The Official "I ordered" thread

    Thanks, Pierre. And it's nice to know that you should have yours next week. You sure had a bit of a wait.

    Really scared myself in the Hellcat. Time to move on?

    Motorhead said "lick it", not dick it.

    Alright! As of yesterday the little wagon is in KZ. Glad it got built before the virus hoopla shuts the plant down.

    Really scared myself in the Hellcat. Time to move on?

    That would only be the case if I actually had the virus, right?

    If I end up in jail I'd want to be in an isolation cell...within the solitary confinement section. And maybe then some.

    Really scared myself in the Hellcat. Time to move on?

    Speaking of driving fast...this virus hype may be a blessing in disguise for me. Now I'll bring a dust mask, and tape a note to the side window that reads "I am self quarantined". Maybe, just maybe, the cop won't be quite as eager to have me roll down the window and hand him my licence and...

    Really scared myself in the Hellcat. Time to move on?

    You haven't been there for a while, have you? When I started "commuting" between there and here, I quickly learned that I had to leave no later than 4 AM. That was 10 years ago, and I drove north of L.A.(101 and 210), not through it. Going back west there was no point in getting to the I-15/210...

    Really scared myself in the Hellcat. Time to move on?

    I've wondered about if I ever would've bought a 'Cat if I still lived in SoCal. Granted, we had nice canyon roads on the doorstep, but the rest...? Might as well have an elderly declawed cat for dealing with traffic and stoplights. Firearms? Ironically, there I really wanted them. Here I can...

    Really scared myself in the Hellcat. Time to move on?

    Aha, I knew there was a simple solution. I'm actually fairly good at herding cats...well, up to four at a time anyway. But I keep thinking about the old saying "It's more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slowly". It doesn't seem to apply to me. I may have to try driving the fast car...

    You can almost smell burnt rubber by now, can't you, Pierre?

    Oil Life Remaining Indicator

    Same with my diesel Ram. It also should have a change every six months, for reasons nobody seems to be able to explain. But after almost a year and a half (I don't drive that one often) the indicator was still quite content.

    Really scared myself in the Hellcat. Time to move on?

    Well, my main problem is that I go too fast in anything, including my Ram 3500 dually which always has some sort of trailer behind it. It's just not as fast as it would be in the 'Cat. Generally, it's probably in the 85-95% range of what the vehicle is capable of, as far as cornering goes...

    Really scared myself in the Hellcat. Time to move on?

    It was only two days ago that I almost made a New Years resolution to start driving slower. Ended up taking two 400-mile trips on consecutive days, and it tired me. Also, especially my right eye doesn't like it, because I don't blink much. I don't, subconsciously, because I want to fully...

    Oil Life Remaining Indicator

    Hey, no using the owners manual. That's cheating. But speaking of, what I haven't found in the manual is how to make the radio station knob functional with the performance pages up on the screen. Maybe not a question for you, Rob, since in the Challenger it works fine. This problem is in my Jeep.

    The Official "I ordered" thread

    Thanks, Tannehill. I did call, and it's still waiting for parts, apparently. As you pointed out, it can't be cause they're selling so many of them. It's more likely, I think, that they're working on solving some defect, but I haven't heard about anything along those lines. Anyway, I was...

    The Official "I ordered" thread

    Looks like the two of you are close. I'm out of the race. Should call today and see if it's back in D again, or if they have thoughts about starting assembly. That rapid last order sure spoiled me.

    Hellcat Weight

    I know. Should've bought one in a lighter color.
