MikeRuth- I remember my old Ford van, was a 1961 Econoline. Dependable ride. Yours looks a whole lot better than what I remember of mine. LOL

For the thread, I bought a 2017 Dodge Journey when my SS blew its chunks. No pictures, no recommendations beyond that it was the cheapest MOPAR I could get when I had limited options. It's a FWD, 2.4L pile of boring.
Blue_SS- Bummer about your SS. I guess that is as honest as it could get on a Journey.

I have a 2010 Camaro 2ss/rs as my daily driver, now has 99k miles on it and never have any issues. It's been paid for 8 years.
I have a 2010 4x4 suburban with126k miles, and never had any issues. It is mostly parked in driveway as I only drive it to the ranch 1 time a week.

The 2008 2LT HHR is the wife's daily driver, and it only has 84k miles on it.

They are all paid for, that is the best part, you take care of them and they take care of you.

I haven’t replaced Red, but my stable is too full and I’m one bay short. 7 vehicles from a ‘49 PU to our latest a ‘17 terrain that gets a road trip soon to test its legs. Pursue excellence. Ignore success. Deepak Chopra

Josh- That's a nice collection I must say. Those Camaro's are mean machines.. And agree, I think they all seem to run best when paid in full..

Santa- You're gonna need a Dealer license soon.. Some choice rides.. Love to see another pic or two of your '17 Terrain if you get a chance. Those are hot.
And Christmas is coming..

Yea, I don't see a lot of snow here and when I do, I just work from home. I lived in Wash state and Montana so I don't have an issue in the snow, but GA folks can't drive in it....lol. You can only get an SXT in AWD now. So depending on what you want, AWD could be an issue unless you look for an older one.

This one is an R/T with the 5.7 hemi. All I really need. Listed at 370hp, but they dyno in the low 350s. So either the drive line is super efficient, or these are under rated and actually put out about 405/410. Hard to keep your foot out of with that active exhaust, I'll have to load a sound clip of it.

Solman- gots to have the HEMI, I think they do under rate the hp for insurance reasons, like old days..

A sound clip would be great.. Enjoy the new Hot Rod..

Solman- here's the message I get: Private video Sign in if you've been granted access to this video

I don't really don't even know what an MP4 is ?
