Okay, I'm not just a basic idiot, but a complete idiot. Asked the sales people to make sure that on this Challenger SXT the channel knob would still work when the gauges are up on the performance pages. Sure, they said. Well, I was too busy being happy that the non-shiny brake pedal cover was...

Hmm. When I read that I thought "That perfectly describes the road I drove today to pick up the SXT". But thankfully that road isn't a loop, or I wouldn't be back with the car on the trailer.

No, just normal ones. And I've only seen two so far. There's enough free space that there's no reason for them to get close to houses and such.

I don't think the SXT has any badges, and neither does the 'Cat, so there's nothing to switch. And no, I'm not moving. I like this alligator free 'hood.

It's a slow version of a Durango.

Oh, and we are talking about the Audi, right? I'd want something larger/more substantial for the Durango.

Are all of them 12-footers or better? Could you throw in a mid size python?

Thanks, but no thanks. If the weather is cooperative and I feel the need for more than twice the power, I'll just take the 'Cat instead. Besides, it's good for my standing with the local law enforcement to drive something slow on occasion. They'll think it's the same car (both are Granite) and...

Yeah, I would imagine they'll continue with the incentives. That would help with the Durango. And that Audi isn't a year old yet. But it's more sacrificial than a perfectly good '17 Ram 3500 with 22,000 miles on it, plus a new Challenger.

Colorado Springs. As of this morning it looked like a 60% chance of evil weather, but that also means a 40% chance of avoiding it, right? They're closed today, and the incentives expire after tomorrow, so I don't have much choice. Guess I could go there in the more sacrificial Audi and do the...

Well, things have changed a bit, and I know more about the price end of it. I can't just introduce a different buyer to the dealer, as then the price protection goes away. It'd still be a good price, but not as good as what I'm getting. And paying cash for it would make it nearly $3K more...

I don't think it matters. They have alligators in the winter, too.

Today I bought a companion for it. An SXT GT AWD. Had one about a year ago, really liked it, and missed it. Hopefully the new one will have a functional channel knob, even when the gauges are up on the performance pages.. Not that I know why a V6 has performance pages, but some of them do.

No VWs left. Only Audis and a Porsche. Anyway, we've both spent time in Germany, but that was before we met.

Dealers order weird stuff, I've noticed. That's why ordering is my preferred method. When looking (nationwide) for cab and chassis Rams, for example, when I did find one to my liking it always had the optional electrically operated transfer case instead of a simple shifter.

I thought the rear bench was standard, and separate seats an option. But don't take my word for it since I'm not seat savvy. I only need front seats. Technically only a driver's seat, really.

It would "only" be from southern Utah, so maybe not all that bad. And I have used a transporter in the past that is both easy to work with and affordable. My girlfriend uses WeatherTech seat covers in the rear for the hound (100+) and is happy with them. And if the incentives for July are as...

Okay, this was disappointing. Especially when seeing that Hickster had responded, I really though the title was about finding single wimmin.

Probably identical to the Plus, I'd think. My goal would be to lose some weight back there, maybe gain space for a spare tire or something of more use to me.

Thanks, MikeD1. I'll cross that bridge if I get to it. As of last night a friend in Kentucky is interested. It'd be a bit of a road trip for him, then for both of us from here to the dealer and back. He's business savvy enough to recognize a good deal when he sees one, and I already told him...
