I understand what you are saying. It's just hard to find the time to get out. WHile I have been able to get my car out a few times this year it's not nearly as much as I used to get the car out. I have two little ones myself. Funnily enough, when my youngest was born (this year) my wife started to have contractions while I was at a VCA event. That was a very quick drive home. ;) As mentioned earlier...it sounds like you have your priorities in the right order. You will find the time to get out in the car. :)

Well I think I do, Hell still have to put the boat in the water and everybody loves boating, Pretty funny how life changes after the little ones were born and I could put all the toys to the side and it wouldn't bother me, I just enjoy the fun with the family just as much now. So things do change, Also went for a three hour run last night and this thing still has the pucker facter option......

My experience is

- Vipers get driven more when you have no kids
- Vipers get driven more when you have one kid
- Vipers get driven less when you have 2 or more kids

I have driven over 25000 miles in one year in one of my SRT10, I have posted pics of me driving through torrential rain storms that would make most Viper owners Cringe and run for mommy,

I have driven my SRT convert I used to have through the mountains in Alberta before, during and after a massive snow storm (on bald PS1's) (pics in my Gallery)

Now that I have kids, I drive the Viper I do have less, this year I have maybe had it out on the road once.

For anyone who does not know who they are dealing with when they talk to Marc Roth, he puts together 650+ HP naturally aspirated beasts for his customers and his knuckles don't turn white on the wheel until after 200 Mph

My 06 convertible is up on the hoist were it went last fall. Very dusty now. I have been doing motorcycle tours of the US to try and cover all of the 49 North American continent States. I should be done by next year. I decided that I will then try and do the same thing with the Viper. I don't know about the Alaskan Highway part though.

Just got back from the 6,000 mile trip to Seattle and down to LA on the Pacific Coast Highway. Then I went through Death Valley and across the desert South West. Temps ranged from 105 to 115. Have two shorter trips in the next two months planned to add a couple of Canadian Provinces and one State.

I did see two Vipers during the trip. Both were East bound on I-44 . One was a white gen II with light blue strips west bound in NM. The other was also west bound in Oklahoma and was a gen IV red with black strips.

By fall I should have gotten it down, shinned up and at least use up the old gas in it before it is put away for winter again. If I don't pay more attention to it. It may sue me for non-support!:rolaugh:

It had 2K on it when I got it about 2.5 years ago. Since then it has soared to 2,400 miles.
