We all get like that from time to time; it's just part of the love/hate relationship we have with our cars. wink

Sell it if you hate it. I hung onto mine when I got down with it, but only because I still love it deep down. Be happy you can drive it every day.

You have threads like this all the time about selling it, or wanting to, or new cars to buy. Do something about it if you don't want it anymore.

Whenever I feel that way about my car, I take it for a spin, and blast some tunes. Or I'll go help my neighbor with his car, which has been off the road for about four years (It's a work in progress.. hammer ).

this trip to Florida I just took in my PT made me miss my T-Bat something fierce...the Cruiser cant hold a candle to the GP when it comes to hi-way hammering...or gas mileage for that matter.

My sons Intrepid finally gave up the ghost and puked a tranny while I was gone (after 260k that aint so bad) but he pestered me to death two night ago about how much I would sell mt GP for...I dont think it was until then I realized he would never have enough money to buy it because I couldnt make myself even say a price out loud.

Yes they are fast, but they are so heavy and gas hungry. My good friend had one for a year. He averaged 15 mpg city and 25 highway on 91 octane. They do have tons of room though. 5 of us would go out to lunch with plenty of room.

Specs found online
0-60 6.2
1/4 mile 14.3 at 102
weight 4140 pounds
.77g skidpad
