Default Re: Crossfires are junk on wheels...

Let's see...wet headlamp lenses, a chattering CD (maybe it doesn't want you listening to that CD), and something weird in the glove box. Those are frustrating problems, if you let it grate on you, but how does it drive? How does it handle? How does it respond when you whip through a hairpin posted for 35 at 70???

If the answer to these questions is that it handles like a '63 Beetle with bad king pins, and drives like a garbage truck on an unpaved road, and the best you can manage on a winding road is 7 MPH, and 28 on straight-aways, then you have a piece of junk on wheels. I haven't even heard anything that remotely indicates junk on wheels...not even close.

Nope...mine's definitely a keeper. However, if my CD starts chattering I'm trashing the beast...so I can install an XM receiver.
