Oh, I can manage that in my Jeep just fine...but that's at 1-3 mph, not 80-120 or so. And maybe more importantly, not on public roads. On the other hand, I roll over in the Jeep far more often. Actually, haven't even laid the Challenger on its side yet, let alone rolled it.

Okay, so I manage to make it stay in the container, and the container in the cup holder, but how the heck do I get a drink out of it without careening off the pavement?? It takes all my concentration to stay between the lines as it is, and you want me to try drinking, too?

Okay, I don't drink soft drinks, but how the heck do you guys keep them in the cup?!? I could see having one in my 3500 while towing, maybe, but in the 'Cat it would be somewhat evenly distributed between the seats, side windows, and the rear window.

I rather have "boring" than speeding tickets.

Excellent taste, Pierre! And you don't have to convince me about how good Granite looks, especially on a Challenger. Mine is, too, as is my girlfriend's. As is the 'Hawk she has coming. What really started this whole Granite thing was her two Porsches in Agate Gray. That's a color very close...

Pierre, is that Granite?

I would cancel the order to get to the back of the line. Waiting another month or two has to be better than having a car built by a disgruntled crew that was asked to show up for work again.

Looks like it sat for about five days before getting on the train.

Thanks, Harley, so am I. And, I'm guessing, so is Pierre. Looking at the time it took on the railroad last time, our car may arrive this weekend. It'll be a several hundred miles shorter trip, and supposedly the train averages 100 miles per day. Of course, as of yesterday we're not supposed to...

Which is why I'd pay extra for a dealership not doing my oil changes.

One glimmer of hope in all this misery: our car is on it's first railroad trip.

We lucked out, Pierre, that's for sure. I cut it closer, but found out today that our little wagon is on track, literally.

That is amazing. Less than 25 bucks an hour for a correctly performed oil change.

Dumb question maybe, but does that mean you're coming up on 6,000 miles, or is it just what the indicator has decided?

Looks like our problem isn't a plant shutdown (the car ready to go on 3-12), but has now self quarantined and refuses to get on a train. Or the train refuses to allow it aboard. Whichever, it's not going anywhere.

Yes, getting the system warm enough burns the water off. That's why I hate cold starts, and when I do start a vehicle it gets driven until everything is up to temp, and then some, if at all possible. At 5%? I'd either reset it or ignore it.

If that's the case, why doesn't all manufacturers demand short time intervals? Are Porsches immune to condensation, for example? I would think that the primary reason for water contamination is not driving long/far enough for everything to get up to temp. And FCA's reason for the 6-month rule...

Hah! I drove mine today. Couldn't help myself since it's been so long, and it's supposed to snow later this week. Forgot to reinstate the insurance, somehow. Oh well.

I can fit two on my longest gooseneck trailer...or is that asking too much, Hellcatcfp? Have some car parts that should go to Big Bear, anyway, so I'd be close(r).

I don't mind that one bit. If I feel like it, I could make it very obvious what I do have by using the throttle. Actually, one reason I really like the Redeye is that it looks just like a Hellcat...which in turn looks just like a V6 Challenger. Perfect, if you ask me.
