    just hit a large fallen rock at 60

    Had a similar thing happen to me years ago when a piece of 5" cast pipe fell off the back of a plumbers truck right in front of me and I tried to avoid it! I hit it square with my left front tire and blew the tire out on the spot. No damage to the car, thank God. Didn't get the plate number...

    Congratulations!!! Your English is just fine.....much better than my German or French or......You'll never regret the Viper purchase! You are definitely a rarity in Austria. I've been to Europe many times, and have NEVER seen a Viper. Wanted to ship my car over to Germany, just to drive on...

    Finally ( Yea )

    Look out! There will be this type of bug, that after it bites you a yearning desire to buy upgrades begins. The only cure is to BUY the upgrades. It's like a drug, it's really never enough! Welcome to the ownership of a great American icon!!

    Cockpit heat??

    After the Belanger headers and high flow cats much less heat. Very minor in the summer (it's not hot in Phoenix in the summer!).

    Headlight ballast ??

    When installing a new bulb or taking out the existing bulb, I would also NOT touch the bulb with your fingers without wearing a glove. The oils on your fingers, even after you wash your hands, will diminish bulb life. It's not unlike the bulbs in outdoor lighting (Malibu, etc.). I use the...

    Trickle charger question

    Just use the clips that are already on the battery tender. I changed the "cover" on the positive pole (to a piece of old fuel line that covers the bolt), that threads on and off easily, and clip the neg on a fuel rail bolt as previously suggested. I "always" open my hood after driving to vent...

    New Girl

    Welcome.......you have begun a complete change in your lifestyle! Remember, any other car just won't cut it after owning a Viper! Have fun, but be careful for a while till you get used to the torque of this car.....then be REALLY careful when you let it all hang out!

    Unflattering Comments About Our Beloved Viper

    I can see your reasoning, and I respect that, but I don't care for Carbon Fiber myself, and my dash "insert" is powder coated bright silver (stock on the Comm. Edition) and looks fantastic.

    Grundy Insurance?

    The 25 year old rule, is just that, one of their (Grundy) rules. The reason for the age barrier is the amount of accidents in the under 25 age group. They just don't want to have to deal with it! I can understand their reasoning, a lot more accident, means a lot more pay outs, and a rising...

    Grundy Insurance?

    My car was totaled by a service tech last March. Their ins. was Farmers and they said they could FIX my car for $23K. The car went over boulders, 261ft into the desert and hit a mesquite tree. Grundy looked at my car and totaled it on the spot! They subrogated (sp?) Farmers, and wrote me a...

    Unflattering Comments About Our Beloved Viper

    The only hand built car in America....thus the $85K.....labor costs!!! What would YOU do to change the interior that is so bad? The interior in my 05 is MUCH better than my friends new 08 Vette! The paint on my car is hands down MUCH better than the 08 Vette that is covered in orange peel...

    3.55 gears with a paxton s/c?

    I have the 3:55's and the Paxton S/C on my 05 Comm. Edition, and just love the combination. You'll get used to "feathering" in 1st and some in 2nd gear, but the combination is just the BEST for highway driving in 5th and 6th gear. 6th is totally useless with 3:07's. I wouldn't go to 3:33's...

    3M and clear bra for Vipers...

    I have the 3M clear bra on my 05 Commemorative Edition. It was on the care when I purchased it, and so far it's saved the front fascia. Absolutely no rock chips and I have 5300 miles on the car now.

    Father Larry..... always ask questions when you don't know the answer. I am the proud owner of the #60 Commemorative Edition 05 SRT-10. My previous car (94 RT-10), was totaled last March and a friend in the Viper Club called me to ask if I was looking for another car, I was, and he had this...
