    All Viper owners

    As far as things going wrong on a Viper.......I have not had a single problem with mine in the little over a year that I have owned it except for a reverse light switch that was inoperable when I purchased vehicle. Even though I have not put a tremendous amount of miles on mine, I feel it is as...

    JERKS!

    About a month ago there was a stretch of straight road about a good half mile long. I was going one direction and another vehicle had just come into sight heading towards me in the opposite direction. This vehicle heading towards me starts flashing his lights immediately.....as we get closer...

    Cannot find pics etc explaining the frame reinforcement . . .

    I am in central Jersey and had Chuck Tator do the recall about a month ago. Believe me.....if you don't mind the ride...you will not be disappointed in his work. You will never be able to tell that the recall work was ever done....it looks like it came out of the factory this way. He paints...

    Hood rubbing against front fascia, anyone know how to make adjustment?

    My hood was rubbing my headlight slightly although my gap was pretty much even. Chuck Tator made an adjustment and now it no longer rubs but I think my adjustment was more in the locking hinges, where yours appears to need an adjustment elsewhere. Just out of curiosity.....your avatar shows 3...

    Where do you go to change your oil?

    Isn't that a little overkill to let your oil drain for soo long? How much more oil could possibly come out after the plug has been out for 5-10 minutes? Isn't synthetic oil designed to stick and leave a film on metal? I just wait for the stream of oil to stop and when it is dripping very...

    Yellow RT...Stripes or no Stripes ??

    I wouldn't change a thing on your car. You already have the spoiler and black emblems which look great. I have to admit that I am not a big fan of HRE wheels but those black ones on your car look absolutely fantastic. Don't do anything else to that car.

    Cost of an SRT. What are some of these Dodge dealerships thinking?

    There is a red SRT at a Dodge dealer(Fullerton Chrysler) in Bridgewater N.J. that they have a sticker saying take $6.000 off sticker price of $83,000. This car has been sitting at this dealership for at least 8 months. They used to have a silver SRT that sat for a very long time too before...

    2nd Annual Somerville, N.J. Cruise Night, 07-16-04 PICS!!!

    I only live about 10 minutes from somerville but didn't know about this past friday nights cruise until my friend called me and said a bunch of Vipers are on main street. I probably wouldn't have been able to make it anyway since I usually work til around 7.00....but maybe next year if it is...

    Moving to upstate NY area..looking for nearby owners and events

    I live in New Jersey but own a vacation home in Old Forge N.Y. which is about 1.5 hours(maybe less) due west of Ticonderoga. I travel the 300 miles(one way) from my home in Jersey to Old Forge almost every weekend and sometimes drive the Viper there. I also have a '98 GTS. It would be great...

    hey Viper guys in NY

    That is correct and they don't put it on the treadmill anymore with 98? and newer vehicles. Just plug in and check for codes.

    UPS damaged HRE rim and is refusing to pay!!

    Please Andrew, if you are going to bash UPS at least get your facts straight. If you were up to date on todays modern technology you would know that for the last several years if you wanted to send a signature required pkg. there is an option to have the printed barcode, when scanned by the...

    UPS damaged HRE rim and is refusing to pay!!

    Feel free to ship with someone else............ It happens with all carriers. Better yet.....drive it there yourself. That will probably be your only gaurantee it arrives safely.

    UPS damaged HRE rim and is refusing to pay!!

    Denny, I think you misinterpreted what the guy from Lenexa(Jerry Dobson) meant. I beleive he was saying that the boxes used in shipping should have the burst rating to sustain a 3 foot fall. I don't think he meant that UPS was giving the thumbs up to drop the package from 3 feet high...

    UPS damaged HRE rim and is refusing to pay!!

    I am one of those lowly UPS drivers :cool: I really do love the job. Your driver should have sheeted up that package as damaged and should not have made the attempt to deliver it to you. When I get a package that is obviously damaged I always return it to my center. No customer wants to...

    Should I Strip the Clear Coat off my Rims?

    Should I Strip the Clear Coat off my Rims?

    Is the chroming out of the question? I don't think it is all that expensive. Really like the looks of that after seeing BO KNOWS car at Tators(stood right out from the stock wheels) and is what I plan to do to mine when I put a few more scratches on them. Everytime I even pop the center caps...

    How many miles does the Average Viper Owner drive a Year ?

    I am celebrating my one year anniversary next week on my 98GTS. Bought it with 2,200 and now have 5,500. I would most likely use it as my daily driver if I had a safe place to park at work but it would definately get trashed rather quickly if I drove it there. I am not too concerned with...

    UPS damaged HRE rim and is refusing to pay!!

    Come on........didn't you ever see that Jim Carrie(sp) movie, ACE Ventura where he is a UPS driver kicking the boxes. That is exactly how we handle packages. :D It really is between the shipper and UPS as Joe117 said. You will most likely be getting a damage Call tag.

    Squealing truck breaks

    Yep....pretty normal, my '98 squeals too with 5,500 miles on it. Although I think it is getting better or I have gotten so used to it that I don't notice as much :confused: I am more concerned with how fast the dust accumulates with the stock pads.

    UPS damaged HRE rim and is refusing to pay!!

    I work for UPS and this happens fairly often....although it is a very low percentage when looking at total volume.(I know that doesn't make you feel much better) BOBK898 is exactly right in why UPS wants to see that package. They want to see exactly how it was shipped to you in original...

    Who do you hand your keys to ??

    Wife took it for a ride around the block a week after I bought it without me knowing it. I heard it start up and by the time I got out of the house, she was out of the driveway. My underwear turned brown. She only went around the block and it was actually quite cool to be able to see what your...
