I’d love to own a Viper for all the reasons you listed...however I can never own a Viper because they never diluted the brand equity to bring price down. They should have really offered a 5.7L and 6.1L/6.4L variant with automatics and manuals just to bring in more production volume. The fact that it only existed in

I was trying to focus on cars that were specifically branded as Chrysler as it just gets too easy to prove my point when picking from anything under the corporate umbrella.

300, 200. Pacifica, Cirrus, Airflow, Airstream, Alpine, Centura, Concorde, Conquest, Cordoba, Crossfire, Fifth Avenue, Imperial, LeBaron, LHS, Newport, Royal, Saratoga, Sebring, TC, Town and Country, Turbine Car, Windsor, Aspen.....As many do as dont. 

1st gen Neons, particularly if it came equipped with a DOHC engine and a manual transmission. Fun to drive, efficient, reliable, easy to repair IF something goes wrong. Love ‘em!

I somewhat did this for my last vehicle purchase. In December 2020 I had just finished my masters degree and had a job offer in hand. I hadnt worked in a couple years so I was a little financially insecure about how much I could actually afford monthly, because who knew inflation was about to take off at nearly double

Dealer name? Mark Dodge? My parents are in the market for a 2500 diesel for towing around their camperas their 2006 1500 w/5.7 is about maxed out. They’re definitely patient shoppers who are willing to wait but have the money to buy when a good deal appears. 

I feel like those wheels are a bit of a swing and a miss. Too big, much too big. And not gold.

Tuning is also very broken. You can completely sabotage a cars PP value with gearbox tuning leading to cars that are absurdly fast for their PP rating. Adjusting camber and gearing shouldnt affect these values. Also, the complete lack of feedback on what your tuning is doing, aside from changing PP which we have

My family is definitely Chrysler centric. I grew up with uncles having 80s turbo Dodge stuff, a cool Plymouth Scamp, and some other odds and ends. My parents bought an 88 Dakota Sport brand new, a 96 Intrepid, I had several Neons, they have a 98 Dakota Sport, an 06 Ram, 18 Durango, I’ve got a 21 Compass. Thats what I

I’m intrigued just because its called “pear”

It actually reminds me of the cars from MRC on N64.

I’d say the grill isnt terrible, it just looks awkward as heck with those horrible gaping headlight holes. It needs something like Jaguar F-Pace headlights. I honestly think that would save the car. 

Um, I’d rather an AMC Eagle with a rotted body were used. 

For anyone wondering, this is caused by an extreme wheel speed differential with the ground. Vipers have very tall gears, first goes to 60, 2nd goes to about 100. That means if you were only going 30, spinning your tires and grabbed 2nd, still spinning, your wheels are going about 100 while the car goes 30. Its the

I’ve been having fun with the 650pp street cars. I’ve found that to be a nice sweet spot between handling and power monsters. 

I believe as common carriers airlines cant ban customers, which is why they’re trying to get a No-Fly list created so they can actually ban them for bad behavior.

I think a 5 year ban at a minimum for offenses is a good place to start. Go up from there depending on the severity of the actions. Like if its so bad the plan has to be rerouted and youre arrested off the plane, thats probably a lifetime ban, short of proving it was a psychotic break, you got medication, therapy,

I’d argue it isnt about recidivism but the threat of the ban up front is enough to keep people in line. If you know there arent any real lasting impacts from acting out, youre more likely to do so. Now there can be consequences for those actions.
