    WOOOHOOO!!!! Got it!

    Re: WOOOHOOO!!!! Got it! Welcome CROM Beautiful Car. I live in Leesburg and have my GTS serviced by Dulles Dodge on Rt 50. It's a newer facility that will do inspection and emissions test. It's a good place to get your oil changed...buy the oil elsewhere they supply the filter.

    Odd payment request from classifieds

    Andy, That is a convoluted way of doing business. Doing business through a third party gives you little to no recourse and is difficult to explain to the IRS if your ever audited. Rick

    How High Is Your State Property Tax On Your Viper???

    $1500 paid to the county for 2004 on my 2001 GTS(based on an assesment of 50K). Lived in MD last year, no personal property tax but there is a county tax due with the state tax return which was 75% of the state tax. VA is a better deal for us.

    How can a dehumidifier HEAT a garage?

    Kenneth, A dehumidifier will not operate in temps below 65deg. The coil will eventually freeze up so no air will circulate through it. Rick

    Rough shifting when cold

    Eric I have the same problem and it's done this from day one. I shift from 1st to third until warm up. Mine feels like a grind(syncro).I don't have the heart to leave it at a Dodge Dealer overnight. Maybe when the 3 year warranty is almost up I'll get it addressed.If you decide to investigate...

    My dreams of owning a Viper... Crushed today with a 20 min test-drive!

    Look at my sig. Does it look like I care if GM or Ford makes a better performance car? Dodge is better known for bullet proof drive lines not fit and finish.I'm used to the negative comments about Hemis being overated STUMP PULLERS however their reputation says otherwise. The Viper is...

    2nd Gear problems....maybe

    Thanks Gary. The problem is the worst during cold weather. As much as I hate to trust a Dodge Dealer with my car, especially overnight, it looks like it's my only option. So Jerry Dodge it is.

    2nd Gear problems....maybe

    Thanks for the suggestions. I spoke with Chuck Tator and he thought there could be a transmission problem ,I wish he was a little closer.I have the MGW shift knob which does increase shifting effort but I sense that there is grinding .

    2nd Gear problems....maybe

    Hello everyone. From day one,car purchased new,the transmission is difficult at times to get into second gear. From my past experiences with 4speed cars it feels like a syncro problem.During the winter months I just go from 1st to 3rd until the transmission is up to temp.The Dodge dealer thinks...

    Garage Car Lifts??

    The garage door mechanic said that a standard (home use) operator cannot lift a door with an extra section so they will not gaurantee the operator.I like the CYTEC system and will go that route when the door issue is resolved.

    Garage Car Lifts??

    Road King, Did you meet with the garage door company? I have the same ceiling height and got a rather expensive quote to modify the door and install a side mount operator.$1200 was a guess but could be more.

    Modifying garage door for Double Park

    You guys are great...one of the many features of the VCA.I read a previous post that stated the motor was mounted on the side for additional clearance.Does this require a special motor? Since the door is very light I don't see the need for commercial components. Rick Ciotti

    Modifying garage door for Double Park

    Got an estimate today and the contractor is quoting BIG numbers to do this.I have a standard 7ft door and a 10ft garage ceiling.He says the lift motor is $1000 plus $500 to modify the door!!.Since the door just needs to clear the same opening, why the special motor?? Rick...
