    My Viper sprung a leak!

    I need a recommendation for a Viper repair shop in the Colorado Springs area. My 1997 GTS sprung a small leak of coolant from up front. Looks like maybe a gasket on the water pump, sending a small spray of coolant out. Thank you in advance. [email protected]

    Oh no, my GTS is ugly!

    I had to make a quick run to the mall last week, so I went in my Viper. My ZR-1 was in the shop (again). I saw this nice new Mustang parked over by itself and thought I could park next to it. When I pulled in next to it, I noticed that some jerk had shot paintballs at it! So I decided to tuck my...

    Vipers Suck... Here's 19 Reasons Why

    Oviously an ill-informed manifesto based on ignorance and intended to provoke, if not insult Viper owners. There are things that the Viper sux at, such as taking the soccer team kids to practice with all their gear, 4-wheeling in Moab and never exceeding the speed limit. And he didn't even...

    Need more Viper videos

    Hey all, I'm stuck in Afghanistan and on my day off, I surf YouTube for videos to remind me of what fun a Viper can be. That is asuming the internet is working that day. The problem is; after 9 months over here, I have seen almost all the videos that have a Viper in them. It's the only thing...

    Damn mice, how do you keep them out of your garage and car????!!!!!!

    I live out in the country, and I can never stay ahead of the field mice & bunny rabbit problem. I was away for 6 months and they ate through my plug wires. Caused the cat to overheat and catch fire to the exhaust insulation in the side panel. I had mouse traps and mothballs, and they still got...

    After my speeding ticket.......

    There has been some classified government research on this phenomenon. When you exceed the time barrier (easily achievable in a Viper) you actually end up at your destination before you left. The time barrier shock wave is very eccentric and attenuates rapidly with distance but remains directly...

    Red Owners are wising up

    I wouldn't mind having a red one to go with my Blue one. But I will say, the Viper is the ONLY car that looks good in any color.

    Do you get sick and tired of...

    Drifting is for kids. As for only going straight, not true. If you don't know how to drive, then curves can be problematic, but that is directly related to inferior driver skill sets. Vipers are not like other cars and require a different technique when driving. Besides, any perceived agility...

    I'm seriously getting sick of Vipers being looked down on. Sick of it.

    Different strokes for different folks. I feel sorry for people who think that "quality" and "upscale" has to be equated to foreign flavor. Perhaps these people are the ones who like the "European" round-abouts instead of traditional intersections in their neighborhoods too? Whatever. I drive...

    Prepping for storage

    I put a battery tender on it, covered it with the car cover, then covered that with one of those egg crate bed foam sheets, put in some fuel stabilizer, filled up the tank to prevent any condensation from forming and put it in a dry garage.:2tu: Last year I had it out in the barn and some...

    Viper repair shops in CO

    Does anyone have any recommendations for a Viper repair/service shop in Colorado? I had some bunny rabbits chew through several wiring harnesses while I was over-seas and the Dodge dealership in Colorado Springs has only one "qualified" tech for the Viper. He missed 90% of the wiring problems...

    are vipers rare?

    To answer your question: Yes, Vipers are a rare sight on the roads and most car shows. See note above. When I pull into the gas station in my ZR-1, everyone knows it's a Corvette. When I do the same in my Viper, a crowd appears. We have but a few in Colorado, and saddly one less Viper driver in...

    Does anyone get asked this.....

    Oh yes, I get asked often. Is it a Corvette? And then some just ask what kind of car it is. Made in the USA by Dodge.:usa:

    Busted on "Maiden Voyage"!

    1. Get a radar/laser detector. 2. Avoid driving anywhere east of Colorado, especially VA. 3. Use your phone camera to record the encounter.

    Can you drive your car places?

    Locking gas cap? From where? The only one I found would not fit under the cap. Gotta get one! I leave my GTS in gear, pull the hand brake, put the steering wheel lockbar on and engage the theft system. To date, I have not had any problems. But use comon sense about where you go & park. How's...

    V10 H.O. Ignition Coil Packs

    When I get back to the US, I'm going to put a high output set on my GTS. I think of it as an aircraft dual ignition; the engine runs smoother with both plugs firing, so a bigger spark on the car can't hurt. They are not that expensive anyway.

    Daily driving... How safe?

    There are several Youtube video's out there of actual Viper crashes, if you want to see how well it does or doesn't do. Most reflect operator error.
