I didn't have my Viper yet last year but went to the show. There was a very impressive turn out last year but there wasn't a single Viper there...

    Hardest thing to get used to!

    I hear you on the gas pump thing. GM puts an arrow on the gas gauge that points to the side the filler is on.

    is there a big difference in non abs cars?

    In '93 when ABS was still a relatively new technology I had two instances where I felt ABS saved me from an accident. Both times someone pulled out in front of me from the right with me doing 45 & 60 mph on dry pavement. Both times I locked up the brakes and steered around them on the left...

    Consumer Reports Follow up

    I found this at the Consumer Reports car blog site. At least one of their employees preferred the Viper. Cliff Weathers: After a few hours with the Viper down on two-lane roads in upstate New York, I emerge with that involuntary smile you see on people who just disembarked a rollercoaster. The...

    Paint Wheels in Michigan

    You might try "Detroit Wheel & Tire". I don't have any experience with them or info where their at. I just made a mental note of the name a few months back that they do wheel refinishing. Good Luck!

    Anyone else find mice in their sidepipes?

    One winter I started up my garden tractor to clear the snow and after a few minutes of warming up I started smelling roast corn. Upon increasing the engine speed, brown kernels of corn (deer feed) started flying out the exhaust. No harm done and smelled pretty good. :D

    SRT TRACK EXPERIENCE

    I also participated in the event at MIS but on the 22nd. I drove my Viper even though it was raining and didn't see any others in the lot. I paid $500 and enjoyed it very much. I'm currently negotiating on a Jeep SRT-8 and if I buy one I'll get to go again. It sounds like DC hasn't renewed...

    A little surprised at Insurance costs.....

    Good Luck with Farmers! I've had them for about 2 years on another car and the house and added the Viper in July. After about 30 days they notified me that the Viper was not insurable, the car not me, and they were canceling it. I was a little leary about Farmers anyway after seeing they were...

    For those that have low mileage Vipers, how do you do it?

    My '02 had 2,500 miles on it when I bought it 3 months ago. Now it has 8,000 + and I even had it delivered. I don't know how they do it either.

    touch up paint

    I bought mine at an auto parts store (Murray's). It's Duplicolor "MC CC 414" "Graphite Metallic for Chrysler". The spots I touched up weren't very visible to begin with but now you don't see them at all. The store had about 200 different colors in the display rack. I don't recall exactly...

    What is this I found under my intake????

    The real question is "where did it come from?". Hopefully not from your seats. It is definitely upholstery material but could be from a source further away from the car or the previous owner as stated. I had mice store pieces of dog food in the hood of one my vehicles years ago. The dog food...

    Gen 2 Wheels on eBay

    Have you noticed that Paypal always defaults to bank transfer and forces you to select credit card. Even then it comes back and asks if your Mother knows your doing this and defaults to "No".
