    The Hellcat-Powered Ram Rebel TRX Will Reportedly Have Over 700 HP

    A great "problem" to have, I think.

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

    Oh, so the prices have dropped a lot even in CA?

    The Hellcat-Powered Ram Rebel TRX Will Reportedly Have Over 700 HP

    I suspect that part of the low sales is that it doesn't look different enough to most people. On the other hand, they have sold at least two of them because they don't look much different from a regular Grand Cherokee. As much as I enjoy mine, I wouldn't want it if it screamed "Look at me", by...

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

    And here I was quite happy when diesel prices fell enough so that a month ago I could fill up my 3500 with only two swipes. Adding to the joy of the three card swipes was that Amex kicked out after the first two $100, so had to use another card for the last portion. And that was often just two...

    Rear End Popping

    Dang, Hunter. Not that I've ever tried it, but with the powerful engine I can certainly see that the rear can get squirelly between 65 and 80 on grass. Especially in Reverse.

    The Official "I ordered" thread

    Okay, we could start a betting pool here. What are the odds that the little wagon will be at the dealer by the end of the month, when my girlfriend is going to Denver anyway? Yep, that's that's what I thought, too. It'll probably show up about two days later, and I'll be going to get it with a...

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

    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.

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

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

    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.
