Not to get off topic but I took care of business!! Finally….. Meet the new love in my life!! The Midnight Rocker! Lol… I got it two Saturdays ago, but just took pictures this past weekend (Sun finally came out).
It is a 2015 Challenger, Jazz Blue (it is dark blue with metallic blue sparkles that every now and then gives off a hint of purple somehow—love it) with a v6, ~306 horsepower – more than I will ever need… I have already scared myself a few times in it… punching it and seeing how long I could keep the pedal to the metal. I had not even gotten it home from San Antonio when a guy in a truck started revving his engine at a stop light… Of course I had to floor it--- I knew he wanted to see it launch. I must say I was more excited than I thought I would be.
What I love most is the plus sound system-- Alpine, 9-speaker system. Wow! I’ve not heard a stereo that great since I was a “yungun”. It figures the first song that came on as I left the place with my sister was Van Halen’s Panama followed by Boston---yes I had it blasting as loud as it would go.
It is loaded: leather seats (red on black), Performance group with performance suspension, performance power steering and performance brakes, plus a moon roof (always wanted one of those) and backup camera, large screen, satellite radio, seat “coolers” (great for this hot Texas weather), heated seat/steering wheel, GPS, button for 911, assist, Bluetooth for phone, automatic remote startup, and what I really really wanted, the 20” inch graphite wheels with Good Year tires.
I didn’t know cars had this but when you open the door the window cracks down about 1/8” before you open it and then it goes back up automatically after you shut the door to protect the seal. That is so cool! Plezz…give me a little break if you all already knew about this… it’s been a very very long time since I had a new car.
It’s automatic 8-speed but it has the “Paddle shifters” on the steering wheel for manual shifting….Now that really makes me happy!
Best of all... now I can be fearless... and go wherever I wanna go! The adventures of DBAnnie have just begun!! lol
