Default First Drive of 2011!

Well, today is my birthday and with it being a nice 45 degrees and sun here in Michigan, I decided to break out the Crossfire for the first real drive of 2011. Now I finally see exactly what you all have talked about. This car is an absolute blast to drive! The car is much quicker following the throttle reset and I feel like a star in it. Truly a great car. It's funny how when it was in storage for so long, I almost forgot that I owned a Crossfire but now that I've had it out, I wonder how I lived without!

Plus it helps that I've already had someone stop me in the parking lot to ask me about it. Anyone else got a chance to get theirs out yet? Friday is looking like another great chance to take it out as well!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

Personally, I feel any day you get a chance to drive a Crossfire, should be considered a HOLIDAY.

I've had mine out several times. As long as the weather is okay. Gotta keep the battery charged, you know!

Me three! I get the limited out when the roads are clear, which hasn't been often this Winter. SRT is still up on stands

Happy Birthday!

Mine is burried under car cover and whatever else. Garage is filled up with projects that have to keep until spring. i also seem to forget Ive got one! squeezed into her to fire her up and it was like climbing into someone elses car...way to odd

just keep telling myself that spring has GOT to come eventually. that beautiful warm sunny day when the temp is perfect, air is clear no clouds in sight, birds are singing (and crapping on someone elses car)

I had to put a car seat for my granddaughter in mine last week to pick her up from daycare! She liked going in grandpa's gofaster car. She said but don't go fast the police man would get me. Sorry Doc, her words not mine

You don't want to tell her anything that shouldn't be repeated later.
