    The dreaded gas mileage question!

    I would routinely get 22-23 mpg on highway at cruise speed in my '10 ACR, even with the aero producing drag and no cruise control. I know that more aggressive gearing in the new Gen Vs though will definitely have an effect on cruise RPMs and fuel consumption (as well as, as pointed out...

    MY TA has arrived---Questions

    Didn't I read someone's review of their Gen V recently on here where they talked about how after the 500-mile break in period, the beast really came alive? Throttle response was among those (as well as the suspension and even the seats became more comfy). Congrats on the TA.

    TA Trackday

    Thanks for the writeup. I've done my previous '10 ACR on HPDE lap days but looking forward to acquiring a TA and seeing how they compare.

    Esquire Magazine

    Thanks, and they've actually had several blurbs about the Gen V over the past year or so. They've always praised it. The article that led to my letter was an anomaly, I'm sure.

    Esquire Magazine

    So not exactly my car in a magazine, but I did inspire Esquire to do a segment on car rivalries. My letter to their editor: Their reply in this month's Esquire: If you can't read it, it says the following: (and yes, I don't currently own a Viper but I still consider myself an...

    This FINALLY happened yesterday!

    Is that one of the 200 '08 Magnum SRT-8s with the stock hood scoop? That was the only year they did those, always loved them.

    Didn't I read somewhere that there's a new "Rain Mode" for the traction control also?

    I can't quite tell from that picture, but it doesn't look like those breakdowns include the 20 ACR verts, nor the special edition paint jobs from the other two big dealers.
