    Need GTS Schematic/Blueprint

    Thanks, but I wasn't expecting someone to import a pic into AutoCad. I thought there might be an existing blueprint, like you see in magazines sometimes. If it exists, I figure attaching and sending to the engineer would be easier than trying to take accurate measurements.

    Need GTS Schematic/Blueprint

    I'm rebuilding my garage and driveway and I need to make sure that I won't be bottoming out. Does anyone know where I can get a side shot of a GTS at a specific scale, so that I can figure out ground clearances, overhang, etc? Also, if anyone has any suggestions regarding building a garage...

    TEXAS Caravan Info

    If the caravan is coming thru Dallas, then I'd like to join. I just hope it's not too far in advance. I don't like leaving 4 days ahead of time. I'm not 100% sure that I'm going, but most likely. Lee

    Car Cover

    Jon, So, with VOI 10 discount the cover would cost me under $160? That's how it reads. Thanks.

    Does the radar detector still have power when the ignition is off, or does it turn off when you take the key out? Thanks

    Future Viper Colors - We Need Your Help!

    Somebody needs to put up a pole. I think that would help Fiona a lot. For the record, I like: Orange, Lime Green, Purple DO NOT OFFER THAT STUPID FOREST GREEN AGAIN!! IT BELONGS ON AN EXPLORER, NOT A VIPER!

    04 serious buyers - white or yellow

    I'd go for WHITE, although I really like yellow too. Either one would have been way better than the 3 choices for '03's.

    "Smartglass" weirdness on drivers side when closing door?

    Re: \"Smartglass\" weirdness on drivers side when closing door? I have had the same problem. I noticed that if you get the door shut the first time, then you have less of a chance of it happening. But if you don't get it shut tight on the first try, it will happen almost every time you try...

    Anyone tow with a V8 Explorer before????

    I was considering towing my car to VOI with my V8 Explorer, but I've never towed more than 3,500 lbs with it before. It has the towing package, rated up to 7,000 lbs, but there are a lot of hills in Tennessee, and I will have 4 passengers plus luggage and about 5,500 lbs behind me. Anyone have...

    Anyone tow with a V8 Explorer before????

    Thanks for the help everybody. I had to make a decision today and I decided to ship the car. A couple of things deterred me from towing. One, I don't have trailer brake controller installed, and my owner's manual says to have a distributed weight hitch if towing more than 3,500 lbs. I'll...

    Got my VIN Number

    Actually, the build order will be 100 red, 100 black, 100 silver, but that has nothing to do with when they are released. They will already have 150 cars built by Oct. 1st, assuming they stay on schedule. Therefore, you could get your black car just as quick as the red cars, assuming you have...

    Why do you like stripes vs no stripes on your Viper?

    When I see a GTS without stripes I think... Something looks wrong on that Viper. The GTS was born with stripes, and I think it is a crime to make any without them. On the other hand, the RT looks more smooth and clean without them, especially the early ones.
