Get some carbon fiber wheels. They don't rust.

Maybe you should relocate? We don't have any curbs here. And if you're nice I'd mount new tires for you without damaging the rims.

I hope you put them down again. They're not that light.

Or live where it's sunny and/or the temperature exceeds 30 degrees.

Oops, I may have misunderstood the thread title. My latest new car purchase was most likely also my last. There's nothing out there that interests me - besides, I have enough cars as it is.

My latest new car was the '23 Challenger GT AWD, after that I got a '19 Durango GT AWD. The most recent arrival is my girlfriend's Crew Cat. It was a bit tricky to find a new '23 Charger a few months ago, in Granite.

So buy a smaller car...and put black wheels on it?

I'm under the impression that wimmin with a certain amount of width aren't particularly picky.

And it had to be the one time I didn't check and change the diff fluid at 500-1,000 miles. Oh well, catching it at about 2,000 still helped save the 3500's axle. That and a few fluid changes and many times cleaning the magnet.

Yeah, sometimes you wonder "Where the hell did this come from?" My guess is that the axle housing wasn't cleaned out all that well after being machined. Thank God for magnetic level plugs.

Hopefully without any "technical issues", like you experienced this morning.

Magnetic plugs are our friend.

Gators do?

That's debatable, I suppose. The water, floor heat, etc. is all in the slab so that doesn't qualify as indoors. But maybe the fact that faucets, toilets and such, are indeed indoors overrides that?

Not today, and not the 'Cat, but on Wednesday morning I'm headed for SoCal in the Challenger GT, and not just to burn up the gas from last year that's still in the tank. It's packed full of parts for the Peterbilt. Anyway, the reason I'm mentioning this is that this morning I realized that once...

Batteries have some advantages over people. For example, they are 50/50 positive and negative. Too many people are negative only.

Harbor Freight electrical stuff is not a laughing matter to me. Those cheap chargers may or may not burn the garage down, but I sure wouldn't trust them. Also, their output can apparently vary quite a bit. It's great that they have worked for you, but there are definitely superior maintainers...

Yep. While some seem to be okay with sitting unattended for a month or two, others can drop to 12.4 in a week. And you don't want them to get that low or sulfation really sets in.

Walmart size?

You can have my third and second row of seats. I have no use for them.
