Damn, you're right! No wonder I thought the CP threads on here seemed a little different in context... [lol]

I <3 this pinnacle of American automative engineering. Just repaired the driver's side mirror for 30 dollars and 10 minutes of my time versus having the dealer install it for 150 (including the 30 buck part price).

It's a 92 Chevy S10...Has about 274,000 miles, has a small V6 at the moment, but planning on dropping a 350 down into it when I have the funds

2011 Dodge Challenger R/T Classic. This thing is bada**. I love getting it up on the highway at speed. Accelerates like a mother trucker. Fast movement. Like a good car should.

Mark Hudson,

Crap totals itself at 100,000 miles for no reason despite it being cared for properly. Crap is when you incorporate bad design into your vehicle to save ten cents per car ("lets put the battery in the wheel well there is NO moisture or rocks bouncing around at all" - Intrepid/Neon/Stratus designer). Crap is when every auto mechanic knows almost all of the transmissions of a certain car are going to need to be completely replaced at 80K miles (hello most Chrysler products).

If your S10 made it to 200,000+ miles it isn't crap. If anyone tells you it's crap, tell them to wait until their car makes it to 275K miles (most won't).

I'll second that whole statement. Chevy might not have the best record but the truck they make last forever.

Nice one Sauron (sounds weird to say out loud haha). I like the new Focus's. They are no longer butt ugly. And the redesigned 2013 Focus ST's are HOTTT.

Yeah those freking zebras are annoying but small compared to this baby. But none the less she is light on fuel, but has a water leak so I always make sure I'm traveling with bottles of water.

RR88, how can you afford a Challenger R/T at 20 years old?

I think Challengers are cool, but for that money I'd probably get something else. The styling is great on those, but compared to the other muscle cars (Mustang/Camaro) it falls behind in almost every category. :/

Also: nice one blackhand!
