I just encourged them to look else were for better reliability. She wanted the Toyota, I was just pushing her for smaller and Japanese since all the kids were grown and she likes to drive them till they fall apart.

Did those rose colored glasses come standard with your Challenger?

What do the letters by the gear shift mean? PRND/S?

You want, like, a sticker or something?
