Kind of have a thing for Red. However my last red sports car got me into allot of trouble. Hoping at my age now that will not be a big issue. :laugh2:

Insurance not concerned about been with the same agent for 25 years and he has always done right by me. Gas it is what it is. Car payment I admit it has been nice not having a car note for the last 5 years but nothing fun about shelling out cash to keep an old car running. Speeding tickets have not had one of those is 10 years however I find places to speed. :laugh2:

As for the additions much of that I will do on my own as I have in the past.

You can save money on gas if you get this vehicle. You can always let the ox graze on you lawn so you don't have to worry about the yard either. Its a win win. :D

Well, red cars are easy to see, and from what I've heard, they have better resale value...so go red.

But if you do go black, you will neve go back.

I like it, 4 on the ground, duel exhaust great on and off road and runs on bio fuel. Best part is if you get stranded you can eat your vehicle :laugh2:

Good point.

But they are way ahead of you. I probably should have included a picture of the accessories that come with it.

True and it is nice having a car that is under a warranty

One year is a good distance from new, because it still is under warranty.
I got a fully loaded TL, with roadside assistance and the full warranty for a lot less than what the original owner was paying.

Had a black one once, great when it is all cleaned up but does show dirt easy and in the summer months here in Houston they get extremely hot inside.

Those only work for short drives to the store. On a longer trip, when that donkey farts...the driver and passenger are dead!

Cool. I had an SUV that I bought from a dealer ship that was 1 year old low mileage. Loved it up until I was in an accident and flipped it.

Better luck with whatever you do buy.

Yeah I was lucky, no seat belt so my chest ate the steering wheel ended up with a couple of broken ribs as well as torn cartilage in a couple of the other ribs air bag helped some but believe it or not burned holes in the pants I was wearing. Learned to put on a seat belt after that.

Just some of what I see on the highways has me looking for an alternative to 'going to work' everyday.

God Bless ya.

Ugh, dude.
Hoping it's just a crash test, but most likely someone died in that...
No most likely about it:(

You would be surprised the accidents I have survived besides that one I was in a head on, that one hurt allot. I figure I have some type of guardian angle looking after me. :D

In the market for a new car. Just recently started looking around my current car still in good working order after 9 years but felt it was time to start looking. Right now have my eye on the 2010 Camaro SS with the 426-hp, 6.2-liter V8.

Get a real car and get a Challenger. You know, something that actually LOOKS like a muscle car.
