The dealership where I bought my car from called me yesterday, figured they were calling to bitch about my trade-in not starting or something. Was the saleslady I dealt with telling me she's mailing the usb dvd drive I forgot from the seat pocket of my trade and asked if I could fill out the survey. She also gave me an update on my old car...

She said it's a good thing I didn't shell out the $1600 for a pdc (fuse box) because that wasn't the problem, nor the battery, or even the starter. She said about 5 salesman were out there for over an hour trying to get it to start and this mechanic from the back leisurely walks up, doesn't say a word, pops the hood and smacks some module in the engine bay fires it up and drives it inside.

LMAO, it would take me 3 years to hit 4K on my bike

@SaaBaaDoo
I highly doubt 5 salesman spent an hour troubleshooting anything.
The tech slapping some shit and getting it started is pretty cool though.

Just repeating what she told me. I can see more and more salesman out there going "let me try something!" then gets in and presses start button, gets out and scratches head. "what do you guys think it is?"

That was very descriptive!

Yeah it's vinyl. Luxe dark smoke stealth so it's satin vs. glossy. The old hellcat i did just inside the red section, wanted to see what it looked like with the entire thing done.

You did it yourself?
You are a master!
If you worked on a fishing boat hooking the bait you would be a....well, you know.

Vinyl is one of those things I abhor. I am not bad at it, but that's a long sweeping
set of complex curves. Nicely done.

I am a master baiter for sure!

I've done a LOT of vinyl work in the past few months, including a few full car wraps, so I'm getting a lot of experience. The Luxe film is really good stuff for tail light tint, good air release and memory properties to it. Did a DIY as I was installing for the mopar group I'm in and all I got was, "just tell us how much for you to do it?"

About the vinyl, LMAO...HOW MUCH BROOOOOO!!!!

Yeah, just deciding which spring setup I want to go with. I like the way this one sits.


btw, I suck at putting youtube videos into forums so hope this works.

Ok seriously, when a website is blocked, is that on their server/broadband only? IDK?

A company blocking it means when you are on their corporate network you cannot access the site. It will literally block traffic to YouTube.com.

Exactly...
normally it's not blocked but since everyone is working from home they are limiting how much bullshit you can use their bandwidth for.

It’s even worse when they require a VPN and won’t do split tunneling and block sites.

The great MOPAR God in the sky alerted me that I needed to go to A'Zine and see what's new. What a beauty! I absolutely freagin love the widebody Chargers. She's looking amazing with the mods you've done so far and a slight drop will be the finishing touch!

That would turn me off to the brand but there aren't many cars competing in this particular market.
I'd be curious to drive one...
Yeah I've read that the FCA cars people love (in their own way of course) but FCA dealers are shit.

Just read this post after I was replying to what @rockstar143 wrote above.....LOL WTF.

And people wonder why dealers are fucking scam bags.

Some of the people in the Mopar group I'm in share your enthusiasm!
Drove it up to TN yesterday, had a few people with windows down taking pics of it and a truck full of guys drooling over it at a gas station.

Some of my friends say, you could pick up any woman with that car. That's a negative, they couldn't care less, but could pick up any dude with it for sure.
