Hey bartender!
I take it that's a 'no' on riding with me to lift day then? You sound like Rani now! Why is everybody scared of Ben? I seem to have an ill-deserved reputation as a really creepy old guy.. I'm not old!
Stop in for a cup of coffee

Just doing what I do
Not as simple as "I want one".
I drove my '06 SRT daily for 10 years and while it was fun at times, it was painful at others. There is nothing worse than driving a high performance car on crappy roads in a daily commute knowing you are just beating the hell out of it...and yourself with the stiff suspension. Add to it sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic sucking down gas for no good reason or driving in Winter weather when you know you are just abusing it. It's why I retired the SRT for fun driving and bought the 300C for commuting last Fall.
I think buying a Hellcat will only happen when I can afford one as a fun driver to replace the '06 SRT. Even then, I'm not sure I would. The SRT is well balanced and about all you can use on normal roads having fun. Besides, I can drop a supercharger on the 6.1L Hemi and add another 125 HP for only a few thousand $$ and still be far less invested that a Hellcat price would be.

Funny you say that, we were joking about creating a 'bail fund' for the first Lift Day...just in case!
Not that at all. I am just super busy now trying to finish out my tool business so I can retire.

I rinsed off the Barracuda and took her for a little drive tonight. Really is a sweet little car. I'll miss her if she sells, but she will finance actually getting something done on other projects..
